The Alt Root Top Ten For June 29 2022
Picture
The Hooten Hallers are Back in Business Again on their upcoming (09-09-22) album release as they champion Midwest Americana with a nod to St.Louis Blues and Jazz in “Heal It”. The tune tops our chart the weekly Top Ten for Wednesday June 29, 2022, sharing the roster with EVVAN and her new single “Craving” along with John Moreland singing of “Cheap Idols Dressed in Expensive Garbage” from his upcoming (07-22-22) Birds in the Ceiling. Dallas/Fort Worth Tex-Max Punks Vandoliers return (08-12-22) with a new album, The Vandoliers, while High Desert troubadour Brad Byrd admits “I Don’t Know What to Believe In” on his new single and Lone Star honky-tonkers The Western Express serenade the “Flower of the Rio Grande” on a track from their upcoming (08-09-22) release, Lunatics, Lovers & Poets. Violet Bell use the tale of a selkie, a mythical seal who sheds her skin to become human, as an anthem for all marginalized peoples on their new single “Fisherman’s Daughter” as Nathan Kalish prepares for the release of his upcoming (07-22-22) album Great Big Motel Bed in the Sky with a new single, “Over My Head”, and Katelyn Richards offers the title track to her recent release, Inevitable. Tiffany Williams pay homage to the mineworkers in her own family and the extended families of coal miners worldwide with “All Those Days of Drinking Dust”, the title track to her upcoming (08-19-22) debut on the weekly Top Ten for Wednesday June 29, 2022.
