Hi, all! It is my hope that you visit here now and then and get a sense of the newest and best releases entering the KRZA library, because there's some good stuff coming down the pipelines.
Keep in mind that I'm trying to keep newer releases more toward the LEFT of the New Release shelves. If you're not sure how long a CD has been in the studio, check the top of the white label on front of the CD.
New additions for 8/22/11:
For "Sing It, Sister" and other acoustic shows, check out singer-songwriter Susan Gibson. Susan wrote the song "Wide Open Spaces" for the Dixie Chicks, so that should give you a good idea of the kind of music she writes. She has also performed at Wildwood Sounds in Del Norte. KRZA is now the proud owner of four of her albums, thanks to Maya Muse.
Blues DJs, check out Lipbone Redding. Lipbone is another veteran of Wildwood Sounds. There are many influences in his music, from reggae to pop, New Orleans to New York. My favorites, though, are his blues tracks, and the ones featuring the "lipbone": vocals that sound just like a trombone. These tracks are noted at the top of the white KRZA library label.
Rockers, consider adding Big Sugar to your lineup of classic rock. Gordie Johnson, guitarist and songwriter, has written and co-written numerous hits, including “Diggin’ a Hole” and “If I Had My Way.” Great blues-flavored rock and roll; you just can't go wrong with these guys.
World Music DJs, check out the shelf for the latest from Tinariwen. This band is featured on Putumayo's Mali compilation, and these Tuareg nomads from the Sahara region of Mali, North Africa are amazing.
Until next time,
Catie
