The new single from Mackenzie Shivers vaults across the piano in a rhythmically triumphant leap. “Tears to Keep Me Warm” combines synth bass with drums and a looping piano that underpins her classical training with an emotional essence that blossom together like bright buds as they bloom atop a proud and prolific tree. “Tears to Keep Me Warm” is the second single off the upcoming album, The Unkindness, out February 8.

Lucio Menegon, AKA Reverend Screaming Fingers, is a musician from Joshua Tree, CA. His upcoming instrumental rock soundtrack album, Music for Driving and Film, vol iii (the desert years) is the sweet spot where soundscapes meet landscapes, making the outside world feel expansive and untouched, the natural beauty radiating. Lucio takes this admiration for nature beyond the music itself, but in his every day life as a musician.

In the advent of the Nirvana 20th Anniversary box-set and the resurgence of vinyl, New York City based Nu-grunge act, Baby Teardrops, are set to re-release their latest album X is for Love on vinyl November 15 through Kansas City, MO based label, Golden Sound Records.
For Jerad Tomasino and the rest of Golden Sound Records, it is critical to sign a band that will aid in shaping the label’s image and mission. Upon hearing Baby Teardrops live and listening to their record, the crew at Golden Sound Records had determined that there was something special about the band.
“Baby Teardrops had the perfect aesthetic to balance our artist roster,” Tomasino said. “They have a sound unlike any of the other bands, yet they fit into the puzzle perfectly. In the digital/disposable age, anyone can make a noise, but with X is for Love, Matt and Baby Teardrops have created art,” Tomasino said. “It’s not high-brow, inaccessible music; it’s fun, well-crafted music done with care and intention. It is an album with excitement, intelligence and depth that we couldn’t be more proud including it in our catalog.”
The respect is mutual. Matthew Dunehoo (vocals, guitar), who has written an album’s worth of songs that themselves harken back to an era when vinyl was king, appreciates Golden Sound Records’ focus on the quality of music and packaging. “Jerad and Ross have a great vision for the label” Dunehoo says. “They’ve got a strong center of label/musician employees, and the focus is on high quality presentation and product.”
