The Opera Bell Band is a group from the Midwestern metropolis of St. Louis, Missouri.

Their jam “Why Ain’t You Smart?” goes out to all the children who had to eat lunch alone and were picked on at recess. It’s off their three track EP—3 Songs From Summer Again—a sublime psychedelic wonderland.

Vintage vocals and a nostalgic soundscape set the tone for a wild trip.

Here is—The Opera Bell Band! Strap in folks.

We’ve met Lord Willing before. The dude has a ridiculous story. One fit for a dream.

Check out our first write-up on Lord Willing—here. 

“You Got A Hold On Me” is the third track off Lord Willing’s upcoming album, ARE YOU HAPPY?.

“You Got A Hold On Me” is a lofi departure from his older stuff and more similar to BJM and now deceased, Dirty Beaches. Each successive riff adds to the disheveled swagger that seems to emanate from Justin Long—the mastermind of Lord Willing.

This gnarly jam is a fucking slow burner. So, saddle up cowboy. It’s going to be one gnarly ride.

When things become too much, sometimes you just need to run away.

The Little Quirks are an outfit from down under.

Yes, Australia.

Two sisters and a cousin. Infectious harmonies, acoustic soundscapes, and gorgeous vocals are their specialties.

This is some old school goodness. Homemade apple pie right out of the oven with a scoop of vanilla ice cream good.

Here is the Little Quirks alt-folk jam “Run Away” off their second album, Suzie Knows.

TOLEDO is a trippy indie folk-rock band out of Boston.

“Crane Song” is a dynamic track off their debut album—Saint Sebastian.

And, lucky for you—it was released today!

Smooth lofi vocals and intoxicating riffs will soon have you in a hypnotic stupor.

Kofi Daeshaun dishes us the reggae track, “So Long”. A deep mix of world instrumentation and a smooth vocal flow.

It’s a good jam to blaze a doob to.
