Multi-faceted artist, KEVIN OLUSOLA, known as one-fifth of multi-platinum a cappella group Pentatonix, releases his debut solo album, DAWN OF A MISFIT via Sony Music Masterworks. 

 

The album serves as a road map of Olusola’s career. When he felt the calling to become a professional musician at age 20, Olusola hadn’t yet discovered his purpose. Through recording this album, it became clear. Olusola’s passion is showcased through an impressive combination of commanding vocals, heartfelt songwriting, beatboxing, cello-playing, and production. He’s struck a perfect balance of classical musicianship with modern melodies, which is partly fueled by his Nigerian and Grenadian heritage.

 

The album features tracks such as “DARK WINTER” which combines the symphonic strings of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons with powerful beatbox percussion; “HALLELUJAH”, a standout example of Olusola’s ability to blend classical, pop, and hip-hop elements around Handel’s “Messiah”; the uplifting “SMILE” highlighting the purity of Olusola’s vocals and signature beatboxing on Bach’s iconic Cello Suites; “CRAZY”, a reimagining of Gnarls Barkley’s 2006 hit that transforms the songs into a powerful, dark, and cinematic instrumental which unveils Olusola’s feelings of being misunderstood; and concludes with “KEVIN’S FIFTH”, a fan favorite and reimagining of Beethoven’s 5th often performed during Pentatonix shows.

After a long absence, Rilo Kiley—Jenny Lewis, Blake Sennett, Jason Boesel, and Pierre “Duke” de Reeder— are back, with arms outstretched. Over the years, a reunion “felt like a possibility, but it was never the right time,” explains Boesel. “Planning this reunion over these past months has been like reconnecting with family. We haven’t missed a beat,” says De Reeder. “The stakes are only to have a good time, to revel in this nostalgia. Getting to revisit and celebrate the music from that special time of our lives while experiencing it alongside a lot of people that lived it with us back when, and new folks alike.” The new Rilo Kiley album, That’s How We Choose to Remember It, is a collection of career-spanning songs that hit its audience with a breath of honest, fresh air. “For some people, Rilo Kiley evokes a formative, emotional time in life, when you were maybe grasping for your place in the universe. We were too,” says Sennett. We’ve all got a memory or two with the songs of Rilo Kiley. Maybe belting “I Never” or requesting “The Frug,” at a show in the early 2000s. This latest collection celebrates the music so deeply held by many of us. Here’s to Rilo Kiley, their reunion, and the next generation of listeners to love this band as much as we do. Long live Rilo Kiley.

Kristina Murray

Little Blue

Vinyl: $29.98 UNAVAILABLE
Little Blue, the latest album from Nashville artist Kristina Murray, was recorded with producers Misa Arriaga and Rachael Moore. The collection grapples with loneliness, desperation, and existential crises through a series of cinematic snapshots of small-town burnouts and last call lovers. Murray is a country artist in the truest sense, a genuine craftswoman with a keen eye and ear for the little details that bring her working-class characters to life, and her delivery is timeless, blurring the lines between the old school honky-tonk, swampy Americana, and R&B-infused southern rock she grew up on in her home state of Georgia. If Murray sounds like a seasoned vet on Little Blue, that’s because she is. While the album marks her Normaltown debut, Murray’s spent the last decade since moving to Nashville paying her dues in an endless series of dive bars and juke joints, and the result is an electrifying introduction to an artist only just beginning to get the kind of wider recognition her talent has long warranted. “I’ve been to some pretty low places these last ten years,” Kristina Murray confesses. “Faced a lot of heartbreak and loss and grief, but you have to learn to live with those things if you’re going to survive. You have to persevere.” That spirit of perseverance forms the bedrock of Little Blue.

D R E A M S I C L E marks the highly anticipated 4th studio album from Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Maren Morris, arriving May 9 via Columbia Records. Featuring songs written by Morris with Julia Michaels and Tobias Jesso Jr, plus production by Jack Antonoff and Greg Kurstin, this album is a deeply personal exploration of transformation, resilience, and self-discovery. As Morris describes it, “D R E A M S I C L E takes place in the aftermath of loosening my grip on my personal and professional life. Sweeping through the pits of grief, but never staying too long, and finding the joy in knowing that at my core, I’m still who I am – and that’s pretty f-ing great. D R E A M S I C L E became less about the hard lessons and more about enjoying the bumpy ride and finding people who genuinely want to be on it with you because they love you. It’s about appreciating and respecting the beauty and nuances of life while it’s happening, not after it’s too late.”  LP pressed on juice-colored vinyl.

Double vinyl LP pressing. Eight years after Blue Maqams, Anouar Brahem returns with a poignant project, titled after a line of verse by poet Mahmoud Darwish, which asks "Where should the birds fly, after the last sky?" Graceful chamber pieces for oud, cello, piano and bass subtly address the metaphysical question and it's broad resonances in a troubled time. While drawing upon the traditional modes of Arab music, Brahem has consistently sought to engage with the wider world, too, and found inspiration in many sources from different cultures. Bassist Dave Holland and pianist Django Bates are again part of the Tunisian oud master's international quartet, joined now by cellist Anja Lechner.
