Seattle's Lydia Ramsey has been praised for the vintage quality of her dynamic voice and the pure emotions in her songwriting, drawing comparisons to Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt. Her original music has been celebrated worldwide by NPR Music, The Americana Music Association and featured on HBO’s hit series, ‘Somebody Somewhere.’ 

Ramsey’s inspiring new album, Like A Dream, is exquisite Folk/Americana, reflecting on a time when the world faced a new normal of sheltering in place, masking, lockdowns, and speaks to the loneliness of isolation, when life seemed to stand still. The cathartic emotion in the album provides a comforting sense of union and rekindled joy through our collective experiences.

In bringing this new body of work to life, Ramsey collaborated with a number of longtime musician-friends, engineer Johnny Bregar, and New York based engineer/producer, D. James Goodwin (The National, Kevin Morby, Blitzen Trapper), to create a dreamlike soundscape of intimate storytelling and transcendental musical ingenuity that touches the most honest depths of the heart.

WILD POWWERS are 3 Seattle kids who “specialize in the sort of carefree grunge riff-rock that gets better the dirtier it gets. Each layer of meticulously gnarly distortion, each off-kilter lyric, drenched in garage-echo reverb, is pure Pacific Northwest filth” - KEXP.

7 years as a band has brought them around the country several times, playing festivals such as SXSW and Savannah Stopover Fest, opening for amazing bands like Red Fang, the Meatbodies, The Fall Of Troy, Kylesa, Dilly Dally, Helms Alee and No Age and playing such venues as The Fonda Theater and The Fillmore. WILD POWWERS has developed a glam creep strut that we have come to love them for. Get into it.

Started by two friends who met in a political science class over a decade ago, Zach and Jackie - now a national security savant and an ex-politico-turned-pilot on an endless search for #FloridaMan - figured the rest of the world might enjoy their conversations about life, love, politics, and the endlessly strange things that happen to them as much as they do. Buckle up... welcome to Lower 48!

New single "Place That I Believe From" out now on ANTI- Records. https://taylorvick.ffm.to/ptibf

Since his earliest self-produced CD-Rs, Philadelphia psych-pop master Kurt Vile has referred to himself as "Philly's Constant Hitmaker"—and while he gave himself that name with a sly wink, he was also nodding toward the songwriting prowess that would result in him becoming one of his home city's most celebrated rock artists. "I’m always thinking about catchy music, even though it’s fried, or sizzled, out," he says. "It's my own version of a classic thing—it's moving forward and backward at the same time." 
On his latest album, (watch my moves), Vile pulls his talents as a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer in unexpected directions—and the result is a vibrant, yet meditative album propelled by Vile's laid-back charm and curious spirit. Every lyric has been chiseled down into an aphorism, every bloom of distorted guitar or murmuring synth helping create that "fried" pop. "It's about songwriting. It's about lyrics. It's about being the master of all domains in the music," he says of his ninth album and first in partnership with a major label, Verve Records.
(watch my moves) comes from a period when Vile, whose touring and recording schedule during the 2010s was seemingly constant, stayed in one place. His mind was always swirling, though, puzzling out pointillistic lyrics, dreaming up spit-shined choruses, and checking in on other dimensions. "My favorite pastime these days is sitting drinking coffee in the morning post-breakfast by the window, reading and listening to Sun Ra, sun shining through the forest trees," says Vile. "In that moment, it's all the traveling I'll ever need. This record encapsulates all that—letting two years roll by and staying in my zone, traveling all the while in my brain, at the piano or in my guitar."
