Alt Root Weekly Top Ten 4/29/2026
Putting Dave Cobb (Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit, Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlile) in the producer’s seat for their upcoming (06-05-26) album, Grateful, The Red Clay Strays land in the #1 spot for the Top Ten on Wednesday April 29, 2026. Building from a spiritual whisper to a salvational clatter, the group offers a sneak listen with “Demons in Your Choir”. S.G. Goodman returns with a slow-moving cover of The Butthole Surfers, “Pepper”, while Shooter Jennings partners with Willie Nelson to discuss the happenings in their lives for “When I’m Stoned”. Offering a song for all the lost girls, Alela Diane releases “Dusty Roses” from her upcoming (05-22-26) album, Who’s Keeping Time?as Duwaine Burnside joins Boogie Beasts in “Jumper on the Line” from their recent release, Don’t Be So Mean!, a tribute to top-shelf Bluesman R.L. Burnside. Steep Canyon Rangers are ready to deliver their Next Act (due 05-22-26), and make the chart with “Roll of the Dice”, joining The Two Tracks as they make traveling plans in “Mexico by Friday”, the first single release from their upcoming (06-05-26) album, Seasons Unknown. San Francisco duo Effie Zilch presents the tender urgency of “Easy”, a cut from their upcoming (07-10-26) album, Higher Calling, as Irish songman Darren Flynn cautions “I Ain’t Gonna Worry About It” with a new single and Ellie Rollins floats on a dreamy Folk melody, closing out the list with “Here Today” for the Top Ten on Wednesday April 29, 2026.
