Diving back into live music tonight and tomorrow... social awkwardness combined with COVID-era awkwardness will abound, but I will have fun, too.

Featured Friday Playlist
"Pororoca" by The Royal Hounds (from Low Class Songs for High Class People - 2019)
We start off this wild Wednesday shuffle with a track from the fabulous 2019 release from Nashville roots rock band, The Royal Hounds.
"This Song" by rOZZ (from Yess Sire! - 2020)
This August 2020 release from Belgian singer-songwriter roZZ has 24 tracks and we have two into today's shuffle. This is the first. A long-time E2TG favorite.

Murfreesboro based Mouth Reader are up next with a their 2018 release.
"City Lights" by Monks Road Social (from Humanism - 2020)

Next up, another track from this recent instrumental album by this New York City based musician.
"The Winter of the Summer of Super Freak" by Dan Montgomery (from Smoke and Mirrors (a phonographic memory) - 2020)
A great take on music as a memory. Memphis singer-songwriter Dan Montgomery is a favorite and this is a flat out great song. I love the word play of "the winter of the summer of..." And, I was fifteen that summer so "Super Freak" made a big impression on me.
"Dirty Blues" by Hurricane Ruth (from Good Life - 2020)
There is nothing like real deal blues music. Especially, when it is raw and dirty like it wsa intended to be. Hurricane Ruth (LaMaster) is the real thing with the pedigree to prove it, and she brings it all to the table of her fifth studio album was is approaching it's one year anniversary.
"Ooit wist je het van de sterrer" by rOZZ (from Yess Sire! - 2020)
rOZZ returns to close out the shuffle with a spoken-word piece.
