Ringo Starr: Rosetta (feat. Billy Strings, Larkin Poe)
Wait, what year did we just start? Yes it's 2025 and the drummer from Liverpool (formerly with a well-known band) has released his 21st studio LP, 55 years after his first solo album. Recorded in Nashville and Los Angeles, produced and co-written by T Bone Burnett, it's billed as a country album, but we'd classify it more as rootsy Americana. Review site
Ultimate Classic Rock calls the album "both slightly out of step and sweetly charming." The title track is the lead single, but we've picked this mid-tempo swamp-rock tune for our New Music bin.
Aysanabee: Edge Of The Earth
This First Nations musician from Northwestern Ontario issued his debut album,
Waitin, in 2022 and came to our attention with his 2023 single "Somebody Else." We're told this new track precedes another album in the works. "This song is for anyone who has fallen in and out of love, and has come out on the other side of its reckoning," the singer-songwriter-guitarist says.
We're always happy to see young artists discovering good old rock'n'roll and bringing it forward. Twenty-year-old Jeremey Abboud, originally from Ottawa and now based in Los Angeles, recorded this new single after a road trip to Memphis, Tenn. "Inspired by the birthplace of rock and blues, visiting Sun Studio (Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis) ... I stepped right out of the car and into my studio, and [this track] came exploding out the same night."
