The Alt Root Top Ten For April 12, 2023
Picture

Commitment to a cause brought Lucinda Williams back from a severe stroke and the results land the songstress in the #1 spot on the weekly Top Ten on Wednesday April 12, 2023. Lucinda is joined by Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa on “New York Comeback”, the first single from her upcoming (06-30-23) release, Stories from a Rock’n’Roll Heart. A pair of guitar slingers, Samantha Fish and Jesse Dayton, are set to release their upcoming (05-19-23) Death Wish Blues, on the list with the sort-of title track, “Death Wish”, sitting alongside Leroy from the North with “Youngblood”, a song where the band add Blues/Rock to their patented brand of Americana on the lead single from the upcoming (06-15-23) release, Toughen Up as Sara Petite tenderly suggests to “Tread Softly” with a tune from her upcoming (06-09-23) album, The Empress. Silas Hite continues soundtracking the Southwest with “Five Fingers Make a Fist” as Dallas Moore considers walking the ever-tightening straight-and-narrow on “Halo Too Tight”, the first single from his upcoming (06-02-23) release, No God in Juarez. Joined by Ivan Neville and Ruthie Foster, Gov’t Mule are “Dreaming Out Loud” with a track from their upcoming (06-16-23) Peace…..Like a River while Early James claims “Sucker for the Sad Times” as a descriptor in a cut from his upcoming (05-19-23) expanded version of Strange Time to Be Alive and Dean Zucchero, joined by Johnny Rawls, is “Big Boss Boy" on a track from his upcoming (04-28-23) Electric Church for the Spiritually Misguided. Eastern Kentucky native, Nicholas Jamerson, closes out our chart “Watching the Fire Burn” from his upcoming (05-19-23) Peace Mountain, on the weekly Top Ten on Wednesday April 12, 2023.
