The Alt Root Top Ten For April 20, 2022

Though at its core, Chicamocomico, the upcoming (06-10-22) release from American Aquarium, the album is about loss the band provides a DIY guide for getting out of the sadness, parking in the #1 spot with “All I Need”, a tune about the transformative abilities found in music. The Builders and The Butchers are set to release Hell & High Water (05-06-22), making the list with “Montana” alongside David Quinn, the Chicago musician offering the title track to his recent release Country Fresh and Adam Ezra Group with their new single, “Lay Lay”.
