Dinosaur Jr. return with Sweep It Into Space, their new album out Friday on Jagjaguwar, and a new single, “I Ran Away.” Sweep It Into Space is their first new collection of music since 2016, continuing what is perhaps the greatest “second act” of any band ever. The album was co-produced with Kurt Vile. Download “I Ran Away” right now.
Known as the Acid Cowboy, musician OJR is starting to receive the attention he deserves. The Virginia born Nashville based singer-songwriter self released his third album, The Nashville Demos in 2015. He recorded the album in hotel bedrooms all over the world (Including London, Paris and New York) and produced each track himself on Apples free software Garage Band. The end result sounds like a well polished record that was recorded in a professional studio.
