Andrew Bird, Sunday Morning Put-On

Returning to his roots in jazz, the songwriter revisits familiar standards of the genre with a perfect combination of respect and reinvention.

Beth Gibbons, Lives Outgrown

The debut solo album from Portishead’s vocalist poignantly straddles a divide between the bucolic and the experimental, past and the present, youth and older age.

La Luz, News of the Universe

Preoccupied with a sense of new beginnings, the West Coast psych band’s fifth album faces instability head-on with some of their most unpredictable tunes.
