CASS McCOMBS
\nOver the past twenty plus years, Cass McCombs has journeyed a singular path as an uncompromising song-carver, guitarist and singer.<\/p>\n
Along with the finest squadron of collaborators and bandmates, his music travels gracefully over seemingly contradictory terrain, from infectious guitar riffage to intensely personal lyricism.
\nIn August 2025, Cass released his newest album \u201cInterior Live Oak\u201d to rave reviews including 5 stars from the Guardian, an 8.1 from Pitchfork who said \u201c16 songs and not a throwaway among them\u2026,\u201d a 9\/10 from Uncut Magazine, and a rave from Mojo magazine who said \u201c\u2026this is the kind of record it\u2019s impossible to be casual about.\u201d<\/p>\n
Interior Live Oak is his most personal album to date, and, more than any previous record, shows his vast range as a lyricist and musician. It draws from everything Cass has created over two decades of experimentation to cut through with a direct and clarifying light.<\/p>\n
Cass McCombs will embark on his \u201cInterior Live Oak Live\u201d tour over 2026. He lives in New York City.<\/p>\n
LAEL NEALE
\nLael Neale\u2019s minimalist drone pop draws inspiration from the Transcendentalists, the alienation of modern life, and a rich array of musical influences\u2014ranging from Dionne Warwick and John Lennon to primitive American gospel and Spacemen 3. Her expansive new record, Altogether Stranger, was written and recorded in the early morning quiet of Los Angeles. Clocking in at just 32 minutes, the 9-song LP covers an unexpected breadth of musical and lyrical terrain\u2014from garage rock nursery rhymes and creation myths to Motorik dance dirges and solitary Omnichord meditations. A brilliant lyricist, Neale has a unique ability to uncover the extraordinary within the mundane, tackling themes of polarity that recur throughout her work\u2014country vs. city, humanity vs. technology, isolation vs. society. This album is her third collaboration with producer Guy Blakeslee who helps expand the tonal palette while staying true to Neale\u2019s commitment to the raw immediacy and hand-made intimacy of home recording.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
