Another week, another new music weekly.
Taking a break from NHL trade gossip and sharing the finest new releases of the week. So much stuff this week that I probably missed some and even intentionally left out some higher profile singles, because the lenght of this already longer than anyone is willing to listen.
The album of the week is the new Elephant Micah album, but there’s a whole lot more. There’s new albums from Dominic Billett, Andrew Sisk (this has been on Bandcamp before), Icarus Phoenix (this beauty was cassette only in 2020, now streaming too), Katie Jo, The Pink Stones, Parker Millsap, Nick Waterhouse, The Reds, Pinks and Purples, Bill MacKay & Nathan Bowles, Rhiannon Giddens with Francesco Turrisi, Evan Greer, The Blips, Cheap Trick and Dallas Moore. There’s also beautiful EPs from Samantha Crain, Skullcrusher and Kris Delmhorst.
From Finland there’s a great run of singles from Lettoman, Jan Vilhelm, Jukka Nissinen, Pambikallio, Jukka Ässä, Arppa, Tero-Petri & Korvaamattomat, Icons of Elegance, Pink Chameleons and Sumuposauttaja.
And last but not least the international singles. So many great ones this week. Personal favorite is probably the new Jesse Aycock song. His forthcoming album is going to be special. The first single from the forthcoming Cat Clyde & Jeremie Albino album is also rather perfect. And well the list goes on and on. There’s wonderful singles from Vanessa Peters, Charlie Marie, Rachel Brooke, Teskey Brothers, Darrin Bradbury, Damien Jurado, Tristen, V.V. Lightbody, Anne Soldaat just to name a few.
That’s all for this week. I’ll get back to hockey trade rumours. Love from a distance.

Oh and do buy the vinyl/cd/download. Spotify and other streaming services are perfect for these introductory purposes, but try to buy at least the music that matter the most to you
If you are looking this after a week has gone, the embedded Spotify will show the latest playlist. I’ll just update the same playlist because a) if someone wants to follow it, they can just follow that one list and will get a new set of songs each Sunday b) so that I don’t have a trillion of different playlists on my Spotify account.
