alt root top ten songs of the week
The Alt Root Top Ten For September 29, 2021
Can I get a holler!! Returning with a righteous blend of Rock and Roots, Lilly Hiatt lands in the #1 spot with “Been”, a cut from her upcoming (10-15-21) release, Lately. To keep the coolness factor coming, Lilly will release a cassette version of the album a week early (10-08-21) to celebrate Cassette Week. The latest Dalton Domino single came from a songwriting group text, putting out a challenge that required three phrases, ‘a glass of wine’, ‘steel-toed’, and ‘oven mitts’. The songman succeeded with “Wasn’t Her Own”, on the chart beside The Grascals singing a shout-out to “Maybelle” from their Up All Night album. Joshua Ray Walker pens a tune to his late father in “Flash Paper”, a track from his upcoming (10-08-21) release See You Next Time. Information is power, and Nathan Bell puts political awareness into his songs with his new album, Red, White, and American Blues (It Couldn’t Happen Here) and on our list, joined by McCrary Sister, Regina McCrary, in “Mossberg Blues”. Rock’n’Roll shaman of the guitar jangle, Andrew Leahey (and The Homestead), are back on the list with “Good at Gone’ from the upcoming (10-22-21) American Static, Vol. 1, The Accidentals offer the title track to Vessel (due 10-01-21), Joanne Shaw Taylor counts up mistakes in “Three Time Loser”, and BC and the Big Rig steer “Kid at Heart” on the chart from their upcoming (10-15-21) Liars & Saints. Back in 1999, Supersuckers brought Street Walkin’ Cheetahs out on tour. A frontman friendship developed, resulting in the joint Eddie Spaghetti (Supersuckers) and Frank Meyer (Street Walkin’ Cheetahs) upcoming (10-12-21) release, Motherfuckin’ Rock’n’Roll, helping exit this week’s list with the mantra “I Think It Sucks (And I Don’t Like It)” on the weekly Top Ten for Wednesday September 29, 2021.
