Alt Root Weekly Top Ten 5/22/24
The clash between “David and Goliath” is used as an analogy for the battle within ourselves when Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats drive the tune to the top of the chart for the weekly Top Ten for Wednesday May 22, 2024. About the track Nathaniel Rateliff shared that ‘Anxiety … the intense, excessive, and persistent worry and fear about everyday situations feels to the person experiencing it as impossible of a battle as David slaying a giant’. The cut is from the band’s upcoming (06-28-24) release, South of Here, joining Adrian + Meredith with the single “NFT”, the song grappling with the place for art in a digital world. Portland, Oregon’s Jenny Don’t and The Spurs find “Unlucky Love” in a track from their upcoming (06-14-24) Broken Hearted Blue, Queen of the French Quarter, Sierra Green and The Giants, entice as they switch the sexes on Bob Seger’s “Come to Papa” with “Come to Mama”, found on her upcoming (06-21-24) Here We Are, and Alice Wallace admits to being the “Imposter” in love with a tune from her upcoming (06-28-24) release Here I Am. Amanda Anne Platt & The Honeycutters prepare an upcoming (08-09.24) album, The Ones That Stay, making this week’s list with “Pocket Song” while Ron Pope confronts the opioid crisis in “I’ve Gotta Change (or I’m Gonna Die)”. As Memorial Day approaches the Ian Abel Band releases a summer anthem with the single “California Nights” and Memphis Royal Brothers are joined by Charlie Musselwhite as they cruise the highways with smooth Soul for “Goin’ South”. MohaviSoul wraps up the chart with “To Be with You Again” on the weekly Top Ten for Wednesday May 22, 2024.
