Unfortunately Steven’s new LP is about as interesting as its name—and its name is Groovy Avocado Disco. It’s eclectic, fully-baked indie rock that, as the tendrils of modern society coalesce, will only become more relatable. The album is an acronym…
For Folk’s Sake’s Caleb Farmer recently had the opportunity to sit down with Good Looks frontman Tyler Jordan. We spoke about their new album Bummer Year, how his social beliefs have come out in his music, and the rollercoaster the…
David Ford and Annie Dressner, both acclaimed solo artists in their own right, started collaborating, writing, and touring together in 2022. The result was an album of lush duets finished in just two days, 48 Hours, and their upcoming Summer…
