CC Adcock & The Lafayette Marquis
“Poke Chop”
Lafayette swamp rocker CC Adcock returns with his signature funky Cajun/blues/rock guitar swagger on this thumpin’ new cut on the soundtrack of the recent Road House remake. He and swamp pop legend (and former Lil Band O’ Gold bandmate) Tommy McLain also appear in the movie, briefly but memorably, as the rockin’ house band. After jammin’ to that tasty track, do yourself another favor and check out CC’s witty and musically edifying Instagram feed, ccadcockcrows.
Jean Caffeine
“Mammogram”
Austin-based singer/songwriter and visual artist Jean Caffeine just released this creative, funny, funky, and very catchy ode to this annual diagnostic exam and all its attendant absurdity, indignity—and of course, necessity. As Jean describes it, a “satyrical (sic) song and video about the HORRORS of mammograms. Kidding aside, mammograms save lives. So if you have breasts, go get one! Breast cancer is no longer just a middle-aged woman problem.” Thanks for the reminder, Jean!
Ruthie Craft
“Nineteen”
The second track on Seattle-born, Austin-based Ruthie Craft’s 5-song EP Sound of Blue, “Nineteen” is a moody, soaring ballad about struggling with love and wondering if life would be easier if she’d made a different choice at that pivotal age. Oh if I never went under/Well I wonder/Would I feel younger/Than this.… “A 2024 Sonic Guild grant recipient, her cinematic pop-soul features powerful vocals, moody, soulful tones and slick lyrics evocative of Imagine Dragons, early Maroon 5, Amy Winehouse, and Dua Lipa.” –ruthiecraft.com.
