The great peaks and valleys of the creative experience, inhabiting similar world views, and moving into a garage apartment. John Calvin Abney "Shortwave radio is a nearly-defunct technology that now exists only on the edge of memory, a tool of niche hobbyists. It is a fitting metaphor, then, for those continuing down a highway without travelers, a dusty trail without service to make a call. On his new EP, Shortwaving, alternative Americana singer-songwriter and in-demand sideman (you might have seen him on stage with artists like John Moreland, Ben Kweller, Wild Child, Hanson, and countless others), John Calvin Abney explores the unease - the fear, even - that comes from repeatedly sending signals into the atmosphere and hearing little but static and silence in response. As Abney puts it in the title track: “Swim the shortwave / Cutting in and out / I'm losing strength in these hills / Between the stations / Is the dark you heard about / Can you hear it now? / Shortwaving still.” The central question of this project is this - what do you do when communication seems to be losing its ability to reach people? For Abney, the answer is to beam your message into the void regardless, almost as an act of faith. The result is a haunting set of country-rock laments, descended from classic end-of-the-party albums like Neil Young's On The Beach and Jason Molina's The Magnolia Electric Co. Chunky minor chords loop on repeat while ghostly slide guitar figures glide in and out of earshot. When Abney sings “There's a devil in the dialtone,” we can hear exactly what he means. Recorded at Columbus, Ohio's Secret Studio in a single day with a small group of friends, including co-producer Lydia Loveless on background vocals and engineering duties, one gets the feeling of accidentally stumbling upon the lost tapes of an obscure Midwestern band, amplifying incantations away in a hidden corner somewhere. These are songs about not being heard that sound almost private, as if they're perhaps not meant to be heard. This intimate quality gives Shortwaving a refreshing lack of self-consciousness. Abney gives the impression of singing these songs primarily to himself, almost as a kind of prayer. While coming to terms with the reality of communicating and creating in an age of noise and glamor, he is attempting to “whisper in a hurricane”. The theme of soldiering on through the cacophony permeates the 5-song set - whether in “Arkansas River Bridge”, where Abney challenges both heaven and the devil to “See me get back up and try,” or in the chorus of “Truckee River Blues”, where Abney sings to both the moon and himself, “Shine on, sickle blade moon / It's too late to go too soon.” Shortwaving's glimmers of hope, the “silver lining on a shadow”, as Abney puts it in the title track, come in a few buoyant musical moments later on in the EP - the chiming sparks of a faraway guitar on the instrumental track “Supporting Actor”, which sounds like it could be lifted straight from the session tapes of Led Zeppelin III, and the triumphant, crashing chords that announce the chorus of final track “Truckee River Blues”. After a dark night of the soul spent swimming in the airwaves, it feels as if John Calvin Abney finally receives his response amidst the droning static and spectral frequencies. It is a reminder of the joy and humanity contained in the very act of moving forward and sending out transmissions on these lost highways. And even though it may be harder to hear than it once was - on certain wavelengths at least, Shortwaving is a lighthouse, helping to navigate memories of what used to be."

Early in his career, John Moreland says he existed in a state of what he dubs "under-being": Living in perpetual humility to a fault, believing he wasn't deserving of appreciation for his art, let alone basic kindness. But in 2024, whether being championed by his Grammy-winning peers, or hailed by GQ as "the new face of folk rock,” he's finding being one of the most talked-about singer/songwriters today a little easier to take. And the last 12 months alone have given his fans multiple reasons to celebrate: On top of a raw, live-to-acetate recording at Nashville's Third Man Records and a 10th-anniversary vinyl reissue of his terrific sophomore LP, he suddenly dropped his latest album Visitor, without warning, back in April to wild acclaim. Today, the Oklahoma-based Moreland speaks about learning to love surprises, his infatuation with Sheryl Crow's harrowing hit “Strong Enough,” and how ditching his smartphone reconnected him with his record collection.

Engaging in conversations and education around race can be crucial for our witness to the Kingdom. Rev. John Moreland, director of Denver...

It's not fair to say every song that roots songwriting master John Moreland puts into the world is tinged with sadness and a palpable gravity. And yet, whether or not you're seeing his big presence in person or hearing his deep and tender voice that can somehow cut through any loud bar like a laser to the heart - fans have been coming back to join Moreland in processing whatever grief they may be going through for a decade. His newest Visitor captures our unique American windswept loneliness in a way that only he can.  A song like “Gentle Violence” off the new LP is everything John does best - kernels of Prine-approved lyrics that seem to stick to your ears like tiny knives, reminding us that he always prefers to tour and write alone, processing pain with silence as his forever companion. And while he's happily married now (his wife joins him on the road as his tour manager), in 2022 Moreland almost checked out and didn't come back - stepping away from playing and displaying himself hundreds of days a year for people to sing along to cathartic heartbreakers like “You Don't Care Enough For Me To Cry” that have become Americana hits - for a chance to recharge and clear his brain from the internet's growing shadows.  The time away was tough but worth it - Visitor has a renewed clear-eyed power that shines in songs like the opener “The Future Is Coming Fast” - maybe it shows remnants of his punk-rock origins too. Most country-roots artists don't have the cajones to talk about climate change or addiction or grief but for Moreland who grew up idolizing Steve Earle - there is freedom and joy in mining the darkness. People come to Moreland's hushed concerts to feel something - and listening to Visitor makes me grateful that Moreland is here to help us cope with whatever we happen to be feeling right about now.

I hate surprises. However, Oklahoma's pride and joy John Moreland surprised us with his latest album Visitor and I guess I'm okay with it. Moreland's gone back to a sparse acoustic instrumentation, unlike the electronic sound (which I also loved) on his previous release, 2022's Birds in the Ceiling. Recently, he took a page from his wife Pearl Rachinsky and musician (and recent tour buddy) Chris ​Staples' book, and quit his smartphone, took a social media break and stopped all touring for six months. What ensued was an incredible psychic change discovered through living electronically off the grid. Another thing that came about during experiencing this simplicity in life: an album full of songs. He would take long drives at night, bringing along his guitar and making field recordings of his new writing. All this culminated into his beautiful new record.Moreland talks about the process of unraveling himself from the smartphone, reconnecting with the acoustic guitar and getting to know himself again during this period of quiet. He talks about how playing live is very vulnerable for him to the point where he started taking (and loving) beta-blockers to stave off anxiety and adrenaline. He is very candid with his current thoughts on body image, he has been known to experience body shaming online after performing live. We also get into something that's been on my mind all year: is climbing the professional songwriter ladder worth it? Pretty sure we figured out the answer.

FLOURISHING IN A DRY SEASON - Pastor John Moreland

Kyle Keller is the Americana/folk artist you wish you had discovered sooner. His rolling melodies and potent lyrics will leave you questioning every moment since you last heard his growling bass vocals. Kyle's self-described “sad songs” are raw, unfiltered, and distinctly relatable. His ability to take you on a discovery of emotion through story-telling is entirely unrivaled.“Kyle Keller is that kind of folk artist that is actually worthy of the name. He is a communicator, a story teller, and a prophet of sorts. He approaches songs in the same way as every good folk and blues singer of old, with a message. I have had the joy of following Kyle over the last few years, and I have seen him blossom into one of the finest young lyricists that I know. I travel to songwriter events all over this country, and to find a poet of his caliber is rare… not to mention a poet of his age. Kyle has a voice that reminds me of the great Townes Van Zandt. Not in its tone, but in the way that it fits his material. Kyle has developed a style around his voice. That is not easy to do. His writing is reminiscent of John Moreland's, but with the heart of Dylan. It is emotional, and confrontational. It speaks to today. It is current. It is important. He is like a modern Guthrie, and it would behoove you to acquaint yourself with his art.” -Abe PartridgeThe Great American Highway is a traveler's record and a road record if there ever was one… The album is filled with important little affirmations about being yourself and following your heart, regardless of the often superficial or adverse outcomes, with the most important thing being that you endure and hold onto yourself, at least until you die with a life fulfilled from following your purpose. There are also some important ruminations on the nature of time and not allowing oneself to waste it by doing things you don't want to do… Kyle Keller invokes the most severe aspects of Hank Williams and Edgar Allan Poe in the pretty devastating “This Town's Gonna Swallow You Whole.” Then he takes it even further in the final song on the album about losing someone you love, “Why Would God Steal?” Overall, this is a moody and gloomy work, though one that searches and yearns for inner peace, while also conferring and appreciation for life's bounties and discovery. 8/10″ –Kyle “Trigger” Coroneos, Saving Country Musichttps://kylekellermusic.bandcamp.comhttps://www.instagram.com/kylekellermusic/https://www.youtube.com/@UC1zi7pQArSNOP_utk5GYD5g https://paintedladyrecords.ushttps://open.spotify.com/artist/5fsYHpNeJBGlsYTKte8g8O?si=hkCMShupTYOjc2M09pCnqQhttps://www.facebook.comcautionlightmedia/https://www.instagram.com/somethinginthewaterpodcast/https://www.facebook.com/somethinginthewaterpodcast/somethinginthewaterpodcast@gmail.comhttps://somethinginthewater.captivate.fmhttps://www.patreon.com/somethinginthewater

Indie rock outfit Beau Jennings & The Tigers present their new single 'People in This Town', out June 9 via Oklahoma-based record label Black Mesa Records. What starts as a scrappy ten seconds of scuffling and static emerges as a summer anthem from this Oklahoma band. With their classic 80's AM radio American rock n' roll sound filtered through their collective influences (gospel, country, folk, and indie rock), the single follows 2022's full-length album 'Heavy Light', which drew critical parallels to Tom Petty, The Wallflowers and Bruce Springsteen, and subsequent singles 'I've Got Your Heart Right Here' and 'Midnight Service'. Jennings' recording has just reached the two decade mark, in that time having collaborated with the likes of Sufjan Stevens, Richard Swift and filmmaker Bradley Beesley (Fearless Freaks, Okie Noodling) and shared the stage with Dwight Yoakam, Robert Cray, Heartless Bastards, Ray Wylie Hubbard and John Moreland. In this new single, Jennings imagines the patrons of a bar on the outskirts—inspired by a real blink-and-you'll-miss-it building in his hometown of Norman, Oklahoma. Having barely noticed it for much of his life, a recent drive nearby prompted Jennings to conjure the figures who might be congregating there. “'People In This Town' is really just about the overlooked or hidden aspects of a small town that are often taken for granted. Norman, OK is governed by religion, sports, and partying and while that maybe isn't that different from other places, those are still powerful forces that shape people's lives,” says Beau Jennings. #Music #Interviews #SocialMedia #Beau #America #Artists #BruceSpringsteen

Joey Frendo joins Emily to chat about his debut full-length, ⁠Bound For Heartache which drops April 21st on Horton Records.⁠ They also dive into song meanings/origins, players on the record, sequencing, and all that good stuff. Plus, they bond over living on Tulsa time as they're both residents of the bourgeoning music town.  Big thanks to The Housing Crisis for providing the backing music you hear during the intro and outro of the show. Their new album, Astral Apartments is available ⁠wherever you listen to music⁠.  __________________________________________________________ Joey Frendo is a man on a mission: to tell stories that speak to the human experience with authenticity and passion. His grit will pull you in, and you'll stick around for a while once you've caught an earful of his lived-in blue-collar storytelling. After building his brand on the soulful hooks and detailed arrangements of 2021's Stone Mason's Son EP, Frendo returns in 2023 with his debut full-length offering Bound for Heartache.  Equal parts alt-country, Petty-esque jangly guitar anthems, and bonafide Red Dirt twang, Bound for Heartache marks a natural progression for Frendo as he settles into his craft, showing that his new home region has rubbed off on him for the better. He's not afraid to show his range here — from pedal steel and barroom piano-laden rompers “Fool Hearted Woman” and “Building on Quicksand” to the driving rhythms and pop hooks in “Get What You Get” to the forlorn balladry of “Wild Pilots” and “Nebraska Rain” — each track standing on its own while never once feeling misplaced or out of sequence.  “I think more than anything, this record speaks on the stories we tell ourselves,” Frendo notes of the album's overarching theme. “It captures pieces of that dialogue we constantly have with ourselves — how life is always unfolding, leaving you to shade in the details, and how those stories affect where we end up and how we interact with others along the way.”  “Old-Fashioned Country Singer” is perhaps a high watermark on the new album, with Frendo calling out: “I think Ol' Waylon said it best / when he asked If Hank really done it like this,” posing an existential question of how and why we do what we do in life. These introspective, character-driven narratives are a hallmark of Frendo's output, unpacking emotions and experiences which listeners from all walks of life can relate to.  With a heart rooted in his native Michigan and a mind that's steeped in Southern musical tradition, Frendo is a perfect representation of the ever-evolving greater Oklahoma music scene that brought us beloved fellow acts like John Moreland, Turnpike Troubadours, John Fullbright, and more. He relocated to Tulsa in 2020 during the pandemic, shortly after losing his mother — crediting in hindsight that the one-two punch of major life events inspired this batch of songs. Getting back into the studio to record them over a year later proved to be a cathartic experience.  “I honestly felt like I was writing the best songs of my career, and finally starting to really see what I wanted to be as a songwriter,” he recalls. “I was grateful to be making music with people again, full stop, but also to be doing so in a new city with new people who I was genuinely ecstatic to be working with.”  Fully embracing this self-discovery, Frendo has now firmly planted his roots in Tulsa and found his identity as an artist. He's a songwriter's songwriter, pouring his soul into each and every line, and Bound for Heartache is a triumphant showcase of that commitment. This is but the latest chapter in a story that's still being written; this is his life's craft, being methodically chipped away by an artist hard at work earning his keep.  “I try to be a student of it, to serve it as best I can,” he affirms of his passion for the trade. “It's the thing I know I was put here to do.”

Help produce Basic Folk by contributing at https://basicfolk.com/donate/*** Lizzie No interviews John Calvin Abney... A lot of people like to claim the title “Hardest Working Person In Music” but John Calvin Abney might take the crown from them all. John has made a name for himself as a shit-hot guitar player, accompanying John Moreland, Samantha Crain, Margo Cilker, and many others (including Lizzie No herself!). But the reason we wanted him to join us as a guest on Basic Folk is that his own catalog is poetic and beautifully produced. John grew up in Nevada and Oklahoma, and you can hear the restless desert highways in all the soundscapes he creates. His latest album, ‘Tourist,' asks the question of how a person can feel at home when they spend their life on the road. It also finds resolution after the death of John's father, through found recordings and thoughtful lyrics. Listening to ‘Tourist' feels like catching up with an old friend. You might hear Elliott Smith in “Good Luck and High Tide” or J.J. Cale in “Call Me Achilles,” but the stories are John Calvin to the core.We dug into recording techniques, John's high school identity as “guitar guy,” touring with Hanson, Christian camp, and how running off to Europe as a romantic gesture helped launch John's career.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

When legendary musicians are inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, they get a classy trophy, a star-studded ceremony, and honors at the official museum. But the Indiecast Hall Of Fame inductees get something even better: bragging rights. On this week's Indiecast episode, hosts Steven Hyden and Ian Cohen induct albums into Indiecast HOF in three categories: '90s, '00s, and 2010s (29:10).The indie news front was fairly quiet this week, other than popular podcasting and TV duo Desus And Mero announcing they're parting ways after what seemed to be tension and animosity (4:47). It now leaves Indiecast as the only pop culture podcasting duo left in the universe. Steven and Ian also share their thoughts about The Wonder Years' new music and dedicated fan base (17:31).In this week's Recommendation Corner (55:53), Ian gives props to Pool Kids, a Florida-based band that sounds like Paramore if Hayley Williams was obsessed with listening to Rush. Steven endorses the new album by John Moreland, whose ninth album Birds In The Ceiling is out now.New episodes of Indiecast drop every Friday.
