Suri released her debut album, “As I Am”, back in 2017, but kicked off 2019 with the release of the album’s title track’s intensely beautiful video. We sadly just discovered both the video and album this week, and honestly felt this video deserves many more than 600 views.

Suri’s most recent single was released a year ago and is called “Need I Care For You”.

Matt Muse has released a video for the track “Myself (Philautia II)” from his recently released EP, Love & Nappyness, that finds himself literally spending time with himself.

Here is how Matt approached the video for one of our favorite tracks from his EP. “The concept of the video is basically me taking the time with Myself to take care of Myself. The version of myself who appears in the beginning is the regular me who needs to take time to work on my insecurities. The second Matt (with the visor and polo) represents the embodiment of the positive traits and characteristics that I struggle to address/big up when I’m down and having low self-esteem. The second Matt is spending the video teaching the regular Matt how to take care of himself (Myself). I directed the video and it was shot by Interwine Productions. I wanted the video to be really funny and fun to watch.”

Dozens have released a new single, “Don’t Look Away”, their first since 2016’s Rare Form LP. This is primarily the work of Kyle Mann, who did release a solo album called Surface last year.

The new single itself has elements ’70’s soft rock in the extremely catchy chorus but weaves its way through various era’s to arrive at a sound all its own.

Local Emcee and Producer Leland Philpot released his latest mixtape, “Countertrap”, late last month. His production is spot on and infectious while his lyrics range from fun to very introspective. He is clearly a man of strong faith and shares that joy and pain that accompanies that faith.

Philpot will be performing at an End of Summer Party at 47th and Vincennes on August 30th.

Earlier this month, Pop Punk super group Zombie Schoolboy released a new single called “Hey California!”. The group was built from the remains of group like The Fall Four, Danger Is My Middle Name, and The Fastest Kid Alive hence the word “Zombie”. This this their first release since 2018’s, Flashlights in a Dark Place.

Wife and Husband Experimental Rock duo Wet Wallet have released a wild new single called “Onions & Cilantro”. Gina and Keith Herzik make up Wet Wallet and for this new single they have taken two separate improvised takes of the song and put one on the left and one on the right. They then added a few organic and non-organic sound effects, and the result is intense and uniquely Wet Wallet.

You can catch this duo at Sleeping Village on September 4th with No Men and Underwire.

Tyresta has released a new album called “Worthy Realms” via Tulsa’s Unknown Tone Records. The album contains to deeply meditative ambient tracks clocking in around 24 minutes each.

This is the masterful ambient music of Nick Turner, and this is also Turner’s third release of 2019. Back in the Spring he release and album on Obsolete Staircases called “Circles Back Around"

He started the year by dropping a crazy collection of sounds via Endangered Species Tapes called “Oh No!”.

What is exceptional about Turner is that the proceeds from each of these releases have gone to a different charity. His first two tapes have sold out, and Unknown Tone is hoping the digital sales of “Worthy Realms” will lead to a cassette run this Fall.
