The Alt Root Top Ten For September 13 2023
Sarah Jarosz finds herself under a “Jealous Moon” with a track from her upcoming (01-26-24) release, Polaroid Lovers. The song lands at number one, with Sarah offering the meaning when she shares ‘it’s a song about the times when the parts of ourselves that we try to keep hidden rise to the surface and we have no choice but to ride the wave. Sometimes that means doing your own thing to figure it out so you can emerge stronger on the other side. It’s not about the end of a relationship, but rather a moment of self-reflection and a promise to keep showing up even when things get tough’. Charles Wesley Godwin is ready to head off the beaten trail with “Cue Country Roads” from his upcoming (09-22-23) Family Ties while Ida Mae “Feel the World Turning” with a cut from the upcoming (10-06-23) Thunder Above You. Chicago songman Nathan Graham sings of “Somebody Else” from his upcoming (10-20-23) release Saint of Second Chances. Lillie Mae offers the title track to her recent release Festival Eyes, Jeff Plankenhorn introduces himself as “The Mess” with a song from his upcoming (09-29-23) release Alone at Sea, and Belgium-born, New Orleans-based, Ghalia Volt offers Psychedelic Garage Blues as she delivers the title track from her upcoming (10-06-23) Shout Sister Shout, recorded at Rancha de la Luna in Joshua Tree with David Catching (Queens of the Stone Age). Jolie Holland duets with Buck Meek on “Highway 72” from her upcoming (10-06-23) Haunted Mountain and The Resonant Rogues, from the Smoky Mountains, offer “Leave the Path” from the self-titled release (due 11-10-23). Jimmy Buffett joined a conga line of Parrotheads searching for the next party last week, and Jimmy closes out the weekly Top Ten for Wednesday September 13, 2023 with a sea song. “Bubbles Up” is a term for finding the surface when underwater. Jimmy Buffett suggested we use the tune whenever we feel trapped or confused, “Bubbles Up” joining a parcel of his other songs on the posthumous release, Equal Strain on All Parts (11-03-23).
