Jolie Holland, 2015

  I’m here to tell you what’s new and new-ish in southern music. This is my inconsistent but persistent attempt to spread the good word about the women, trans, non-binary, and queer folks making music in the South these days. Now you have something to do besides puke green beer this weekend. Happy Friday!   … [Read more…]

First mix of 2018! It is, by turns, super sad, very fun, and maybe a little self-righteously vengeful. There’s soul, dreamy pop, indie pop, folky pop, bedroom (you guessed it) pop, r&b, and some very fine dance music.  As always, this is my attempt to showcase the talented women and non-binary folks of and from … [Read more…]

I have full and abiding respect for all of you who simply tolerate Christmas songs or find them hellish relics of a commercialized trash fire holiday.

  Hooray, Alabama! Or at least the 97 percent of black women and 30 percent of white women 🙁 who elected Doug Jones this week – or, most importantly, sent Roy Moore back to his windowless van down by the river. Now, onto the music. This week, we have blues and pop, some politically-charged rock, … [Read more…]

This weekend mix is the first for Unsweetened. If you’re keeping track, we changed our name a few weeks back, but the premise for this list is the same. I’m highlighting the best music made by women and non-binary and trans folks from or of the South. This week, you’ll find plenty of soul, glitchy … [Read more…]
