alt root top ten songs of the week
The Alt Root Top Ten For August 10, 2022
As we progress slowly through a really hot summer in the U.S., the weekly Top Ten for Wednesday August 10, 2022 follows the same pace. The songs have an easy sway, beginning with the trio of musicians collected as Bonny Light Horseman (Anais Mitchell, Eric. D. Johnson, Josh Kaufmann). Taken from the upcoming (10-07-22) album Rolling Golden Holy, Bonny Light Horseman top the chart with “Exile”. Songwriter Joe Pug has friends join in the production of his recent release, Nation of Heat-Revisited, welcoming members of The 400 Unit, My Morning Jacket, and The Killers into the recording. For Joe, the album achieves a personal goal; ‘It’s how I would’ve wanted the record to sound in the first place if I’d had the money and the ability to do it this way but I knew this album couldn’t just be the original songs with a bar band behind me as I played an acoustic guitar. I didn’t want to just add a rhythm section. It had to be a complete reimagining.’ On the list with “I Do My Father’s Drugs”, Joe Pug is joined by Ryan Adams with “Fantasy File” from his upcoming (08-19-22) release, FM. Asheville, North Carolina’s lund (Nicole Lund) offers “Paper Tiger” from her upcoming (09-09-22) Right This Time, Bow Thayer has a new single with “Goldfish Bowl”, and songman Dan Navarro releases “Circling the Drain”, the lead track from his upcoming (08-26-22) Horizon Line. The art of daydreaming is explored by The Young Fables on their new single “Wonder If We Did”, LA’s Truth & Salvage Co present “24 Hours” from their upcoming (10-07-22) release, Atoms Form, and Forest Sun debuts his new single, “Love That Keeps on Trying”. Whiskey Myers wrap up the chart, blasting us off on “Mission to Mars” from the recent release, Tornillo, on the weekly Top Ten for Wednesday August 10, 2022.
