Picture
The mayor of Greenwich Village once again shares the microphone with a New York City neighbor when Willie Nile welcomes Steve Earle in to duet on Willie’s new single “Wake Up America”. The tune sits in the #1 spot on the weekly Top Ten for Wednesday October 26, 2022. Northern California-based band The Mother Hips relocated to New Mexico to record their upcoming (01-27-23) release, When We Disappear, sharing the title track for an advance listen on this week’s chart. The Lone Bellow sing of the “Unicorn” from their upcoming (11-14-22) Love Songs for Losers, Sunny Sweeney reminds us of “All I Don’t Need”, The Blue Highways share a new single, “Nobody Lives Here Anymore”, while high-desert troubadour Brad Byrd tenderly offers “Your Love” as a new single. Sam Bush covers John Hartford on his first album in six years with the upcoming (11-11-22) Radio John: The Songs of John Hartford, making the list with “Radio John” while Zach Bryan is “Starved” on a new single as Band for Sale readies an upcoming (11-18-22) debut with Sleeping Sun, Waking Moon, on the chart with “The Urge”. Vancouver, British Columbia Blues Rock Outlaw Syd Carter West closes out the list hunting for her “Motorbike Man” on the weekly Top Ten for Wednesday October 26, 2022.
