A strong third album from the rootsy Canadian “Appalachian” artist from New Orleans showing raw emotion and a degree of post-breakup positivity.As you listen to each song on Bella White’s new studio album you feel that she’s not only telling a story but also exploring every aspect and nuance of that story.

At times, the intimacy of the recordings is almost overwhelming.” Martin Johnson said: “Her lyrics are truly wonderful, full of detail and…

It needed to document a band whose history was already wrapped in layers of myth, while satisfying both obsessive Deadheads who knew every set list by heart and general readers who saw the band as a chaotic relic of the 1960s. McNally, who served as the Grateful Dead’s official publicist from 1984 and appears in the book calling himself “Scrib”, managed to achieve something well ahead of the standard chronological rock biography. He produced a piece of…

Nia Archives expands her alt-jungle sound on second album Emotional Junglist, moving through heartbreak, sexuality, and self-discovery.
