Luke Spiller - When I Die Will I Miss Living

The Struts vocalist Luke Spiller has debuted an emotional new single. “I wrote the song in the winter of last year while visiting my parents in Devon. It was born from a short poem I wrote. I had been reading “Whale Day” by Billy Collins and it really inspired me. The way he can take a thought or moment so mundane or trivial and create feelings and images in the mind really moved me.”

Laura Veirs - Flying Into Darkness 

Esteemed Portland, OR-based artist Laura Veirs today returns with the announcement of her new album Temple Songs, due out worldwide on August 14th, 2026, via her own Raven Marching Band Records. She has also shared its textured, stirring lead single “Flying Into Darkness” alongside a video she filmed while on tour in France. “This song comes from a feeling of being existentially unmoored in a dark, uncertain moment. I kept circling the same questions: how do I stay grounded? How do I feel like I’m doing some real good, nudging things–even slightly–in a better direction?” Veirs explains. “At its core, the song wrestles with restlessness–how hard it is to find true rest when the world keeps us in a constant state of unease. There’s also a thread of ‘No Masters’ running through it, which shows up across the album. I’m reaching for a world shaped more by freedom and love than by greed and fear, and all the ways those forces show up in daily life: hollow work, vast inequality, systems that feel too big to push against, and the steady backdrop of violence and conflict.” Across 11 intricate, deeply human, and quietly defiant tracks, Temple Songs offers solace in solidarity. Unmistakably, “Veirs-ian” yet strikingly new, the album captures a beloved songwriter three decades into her career reaching peak form. Temple Songs is now available for pre-order.

Grey DeLisle and Les Greene - I’m Gonna Let You Call Me Baby

Sung by Greene, the track showcases a different side of the powerhouse vocalist. Best known to some audiences as the voice of Little Richard in Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis and for his high-voltage performances with Les Greene & the Swayzees, Greene pulls things way back here, trading his trademark firebrand energy for quiet heartbreak and restraint. Grey & Greene arrives as a vibrant slice of real, flesh-and-blood rock n’ soul at a moment when much of modern music feels increasingly synthetic and detached. 

Sean Griffin - People Are Mad

Sean Griffin’s People Are Mad is, in a sense, decades in the making. The first solo record from the frontman of the long-running New York punk band the Ruffians is a rollicking and deeply felt collection of songs both ripped from the Kingston-hailing singer-songwriter’s present day and drawn from his considerable past. People Are Mad extends the legacy of the burly, rambunctious sound established under the Ruffians while bringing Griffin’s multi-faceted songwriting to the foreground, resulting in another considerable achievement in his storied career. 

Zach Bair - Fly By Night

Zach returns to his artistic roots with “Fly By Night,” a powerful, emotionally charged rock anthem that combines modern production, deeply personal songwriting, and arena-sized hooks. With a sound that recalls the emotional intensity of modern rock heavyweights while remaining unmistakably authentic, Zach delivers a release that feels lived-in, urgent, and real.

Taj Mahal & The Phantom Blues Band - Time

Originally recorded in 2010 alongside Taj’s longtime collaborators, the Phantom Blues Band, a three-decade partnership responsible for GRAMMY-winning albums Señor Blues (1997) and Shoutin’ in Key (2000) — Time captures a shared musical language refined across decades. On tour June 4th through September 26th.

Gráinne Duffy - Early in the Morning

Irish guitarist, singer and songwriter Gráinne Duffy has emerged as one of Europe’s most compelling modern blues and roots artists, blending blues, soul, rock, and Americana with subtle Celtic undertones. Growing up in a home without television, music became the center of family life and exposed her to a remarkably wide range of influences. Her latest album, What Am I Supposed To Do, was recorded at 64 Sound Studio in Los Angeles and co-produced by Justin Stanley and Marc Ford. Channeling the energy of classic ’70s British rock while remaining rooted in blues and soul, the album explores the emotional contrasts of modern life—balancing the chaos of global events with the beauty of everyday human connection.
