Episode 173: May Music Roundup feat. Travis Linville, Johno Roberts, Maia Sharp, Volk, Lindsay Ellyn, Robert Finley, Eddie 9-Volt

May 28, 2021

Lots of great music came out on May! Let's round' em up! Read the transcript for this here.

Album of the Month: Maia Sharp -- Mercy Rising

Maia Sharp’s Mercy Rising. You’ll see what I mean when you listen to “You’ll Know Who Knows You.” This is a really sexy song, something that to me has an ineffably queer, nay, lesbian, aesthetic. The whole album is incredible; a sort of Neil Young influence, yes, but so confident and experimental and uniquely Sharp’s.

1. Travis Linville -- “See You Around” (I’m Still Here) (3:41)
2. Johno Roberts -- “Reflections of Me” (Single) (6:58)
