Every Tuesday in January Last American Buffalo has been releasing a song, and not just any song, but outlandishly good songs full of that rough and tumble, dusty, L.A. rock sound. The most recent release is one of my favorites with the declaration of "baby, I'm alive" sounding like it's about to blow the song apart. But the song ends before it can. It's divine. Check out the other releases on the bandcamp page and enjoy two of my favorites right here.

TGACB - Wild Heart EP
Sometimes when you end up on a random bandcamp page you just know you're going to like what you hear. That's what I thought when I landed on The Great American Canyon Band just browsing folk tags on bandcamp. Their EP cover art gives off an Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes aestetic, but with less people. Their two song titles "A Song For the Rest" and "Wild Heart" seemed like songs I could like. The songs are sparse folk pop and exactly what you think "folk pop" from LA would sound like. Some effect pedals gather the background noise and the guitar is gently laid on top of that along with the vocals. Check out their website or stream/buy their EP on bandcamp.
