Good time to have the Blues: Before his July 16 show at Antone’s and his new live EP Bright Lights dropping in August, the local guitar man hit LA’s Bardot Hollywood for this crunchy grind through his classic from 2008’s Worry No More.
Quiet Company, “Fear and Fallacy, Sitting in a Tree”
The first video from the rock quartet’s upcoming full-length We Are All Where We Belong features Taylor Muse and company taking advantage of the Play me, I’m Yours pianos deployed around Donwtown earlier in the year.
