This month’s list is heavy with singles, but hopefully that means great full-length albums are to come.
As usual, the list is in alphabetical order. Click on each cover or title to sample or buy on iTunes, or look ‘em up on your favorite music service in your country.
Esperanza Spalding - Radio Music Society (LP)First album since winning the GRAMMY for best new artist.
Sounds like she’ll have another.
Garbage - Blood For Poppies (Single)Shirley’s back!
Haley Reinhart - Free (Single)It’s Haley’s turn to show that music from previous American Idol losers is often better than the winners’
The Hunger Games: Songs from District 12 and Beyond (LP)
As if new Glen Hansard and Pistol Annies wasn’t enough, the album is full of great artists and dramatic music inspired by the book. And thanks to Taylor Swift’s appearance, this album will get more attention.
Jack White - Sixteen Saltines (Single)
Most of my friends over in Ireland and the UK don’t know what saltines are. Must be very confusing. ;-D
John Mayer - Shadow Days (Single)
Laid back country-pop flavors with John on the lapsteel.
Justin Townes Earle - Nothing’s Gonna Change the Way You Feel About Me Now (LP)
Tracked live in a converted church in Asheville, North Carolina.
Strings and horns this time around - it’s more than Americana, y’all.
Katie Kim - Cover and Flood (LP)
Hauntingly dreamy soundscape out of Ireland.
Marina and The Diamonds - Primadonna (Single)
Nobody does it like Marina! Love.
Ray Wylie Hubbard - The Grifter’s Hymnal (LP)
Ray Wylie’s music will kick your sorry ass.
Slash (w/ Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators) - You’re a Lie (Single)
While Axl gallivants around the world pretending that Guns N’ Roses still exist, Slash continues to look forward and will soon release his second album of original and killer guitar-based rock.
The Ting Tings - Sounds From Nowheresville (LP)
That signature Ting Ting sound of fun is alive and kickin’!
