Be sure to "Like" Ear to the Ground on Facebook!


Hitting my mid-week stride... this Friday, the new Featured Friday Playlist will cover two weeks of new releases plus other recent submissions we may just be getting to... We are currently wrapping up the current playlist which we originally posted on June 11.  



Featured Friday Playlist recap (Part 7) (songs 25-27):




25. "Lullaby" by Rafa 
First up, we have a new single from this Australian singer-songwriter - born of Dutch and Colombian parents - inspired by the birth of his first child. Rafa is joined by Syd Taylor of Stereo Jane. 
26. "Ain't so Kind" by Supermutt
Next up, we have the lead track from the new album by this rock and roll band from New Jersey. Great stuff. 
27. "Creepy Crawlie" by Muscle Vest
And we close this short segment with the lead track from the new album by this noise rock band from London.  A cool way to close us out. 


We wrap up the Featured Friday Playlist recap (which has spanned two weeks) tomorrow - with the final two songs. 


 
 
    Featured Friday Playlist




Wednesday Morning Shuffle

"In An Emerald Green Spring" by Tim Henderson (from The Legacy Collection Volume 5: Songs of Protest - 2016) 
In the finest folk tradition, the late Texas songwriter Tim Henderson sometimes used his music to discuss injustices - like true cost of war and how it is disproportionately borne by the poor and middle class vs. the wealthy. 
"Hope in America" by My Politic (from Short-Sighted People in Power (Deluxe Edition) - 2021)
Next up, we have one of the two new songs included in the Deluxe Edition of Short-Sighted People in Power album. 
"Insane" by Luis Mojica (from How A Stranger Is Made - 2019)
Next up, we have the lead track to New York singer-songwriter Luis Mojica's 2019 album which covers a variety of topics beautifully and movingly. 
"Devil I Know" by Helene Cronin (from Old Ghosts & Lost Causes - 2019)
Texas singer-songwriter (and Kerrville New Folk winner) Helene Cronin has been recording her next album here in Nashville. This is a track from her 2019 album about that devil called addiction. 
"Deathwatch Beetle Party" by Storm Seeker (from Guns Don't Cry - 2021)
A nautically themed track from the recent album by this Celtic-metal band from Germany.  Nashville music fans will understand when I say that I think of them as a darker Tom Mason & the Blue Buccaneers. 
"Cause won't Bend" by Pilotcan (from No More Shan Goodbyes - 2020)
Scottish band Pilotcan are up next with a track from their album released in the early days of the pandemic.
"Paint" by Charlie Smyth (from The Way I Feel - 2017)
Nashville singer-songwriter Charlie Smyth (formerly of the Western Shore) with a track from his 2017 solo album. 
"Elena" by Dan Stuart & Twin Tones (from Marlowe's Revenge - 2016)
Former Green on Red singer - with a track from the sequel to his 2012 album (and false memoir) The Deliverance of Marlowe Billings. This album was recorded with the Mexican band Twin Tone and mixed by JD Foster.
