Rising bi-coastal singer-songwriter and guitarist Dylan Cotrone returns with the release of his summery new single, “Florida California (State of Mind)”. With its laid-back rhythm and nostalgic yet modern tone, “Florida California” captures the effortless duality of two iconic coasts. The track serves as a sonic postcard from Dylan’s life-an invitation to escape, reflect, and float into your own peace of mind.
“‘Florida California’ is more than just a song-it’s a state of mind. To me, it means peace of mind,” says Dylan. “There’s something about both places-whether it’s the ocean air or the wild personalities-that makes me feel weightless. In Florida, I’m walking through my small hometown, hearing music spill out of beach bars. In California, I’m roaming the chaotic streets of LA. In both, I’ve got zero worries-like I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be. That’s the Florida California state of mind.”
“Florida California (State of Mind)” is the first song in a wave of new music to come from Dylan, signaling a fresh creative era that blends introspective lyricism with breezy coastal soundscapes. It continues the momentum Dylan built in 2024, tallying millions of social views and music streams fueled by his debut EP title track “Dog House,” his latest song “Remedies”, and the early fan favorite “Lazy”.
Omnivore Recordings, in association with The Jeffrey Foskett Estate, is very proud to announce the release of Something There – Remembering Jeffrey Foskett, to be released on July 11. They’ve also shared the album track “Mary Honey” which features Brian Wilson.
A loving tribute to the voice of an angel, this 25 song collection contains several key Foskett recordings (“I Live For The Sun,” “Everybody,” “Something There”), rare alliances with Robert Lamm of Chicago and Christopher Cross, and previously unissued collaborations with Brian Wilson, Mike Love, America, and Los Straitjackets. The album also includes “Splash City (A Capella),” a special recording produced for an episode of Full House, which Foskett appeared in, featuring John Stamos with all backing vocals performed by Foskett (watch the clip HERE, Foskett is second from the right). More than half of the recordings are previously unissued.
Born and bred in the Golden State of California, Jeffrey Foskett and his angelic voice were destined to be part of the California Sound forever. An early acolyte of The Beach Boys and the music of Brian Wilson, Foskett was serendipitously “discovered” by Beach Boys lead singer, Mike Love, in a bar in Santa Barbara in the early 1980s. Foskett would later describe this “chance meeting” as “opportunity knocking” and he seized it with every ounce of talent he possessed.
Soon after meeting Love, Foskett joined The Beach Boys on the road. Very quickly, his soaring falsetto and incredible musical talent earned him the title of “Vice-Principal” as he assisted Hawthorne’s favorite sons with their late ’80s resurgence (Live Aid, “Kokomo”). This experience led him to many further opportunities and ultimately led him to lead Brian Wilson’s touring band in the 1990s.
Along the way, Foskett himself was creating original music and unique collaborations which led to several solo projects, all critically acclaimed. In the late ’90s, as musical director and confidante, Jeffrey stood by Brian Wilson’s side to attend to some unfinished business . . . the completion of Wilson’s legendary opus, Brian Wilson Presents SMiLE and its accompanying tour.
In 2012 Foskett was also instrumental in reuniting The Beach Boys for their widely successful 50th Anniversary tour and reunion album That’s Why God Made The Radio. Sadly, after a lengthy battle with throat cancer, Jeffrey Foskett passed away in December of 2023.

Today, Platinum selling, award winning country quartet, James Barker Band have announced a Canadian tour in partnership with Bud Light, the Bud Light Buckle Up Tour, kicking off this fall. The tour announcement follows a #1 song at Country radio in Canada with “You Didn’t Hear It From Me,” coupled with last week’s release of their brand-new single, “Somebody I Know,” available now via Universal Music Canada.
Known for their high-energy, feel-good live performances, these Ontario natives are most comfortable on stage. Over the past 11 years, JBB has amassed over 300 million global streams, scored #1 hits with “Chills,” “Keep It Simple,” “Meet Your Mama,” “New Old Trucks,” “Over All Over Again,” plus their most recent “You Didn’t Hear It From Me,” and have earned multi-platinum certifications. With a reputation for creating unforgettable nights through their high energy performances and crowd-pleasing experiences, the collaboration with Bud Light, a brand synonymous with fun and social connection, was a natural fit.
James Barker added, “We’re so excited to finally be getting back into all of our favourite Canadian communities to headline the second year of Bud Light’s Buckle Up Tour. Feels like a proper JBB headline tour is long overdue, and we’re going to make up for the time lost. We’ve got so much new music and will have even more out by the time we hit the road. It’s going to be the party of the year, at every stop between the Atlantic and the Pacific, we can’t wait to see everybody!”
Before hitting the road this fall, the band will kick off the summer with two back-to-back shows at the iconic KEE to Bala in Muskoka on July 4th and 5th. These Bud Light Buckle Up shows will offer fans a taste of what’s to come when they hit more cities from coast-to-coast this fall.
“We launched the Buckle Up Tour as a multi-year platform as a way to bring country music experiences to fans nationwide,” said Patrick Heembrock, Marketing Director, Bud Light Canada. “With so much new and exciting music to showcase, we’re excited to collaborate with such an iconic Canadian act as JBB to make this tour easy to enjoy for Canadians every step of the way.”
“Somebody I Know” marks the fourth single released by James Barker Band this year, with more music promised throughout 2025. As the band continues to deliver catchy hooks with relatable lyrics, fans can look forward to even more great standout moments, and a good time
James Barker Band is proof that big dreams can grow from small-town roots. Made up of James Barker (lead vocals/guitar), Connor Stephen (drums), Taylor Abram (guitar/background vocals) and Bobby Martin (bass), their big break came in 2015 at the Emerging Artist Showcase at Boots and Hearts Music Festival, where their raw talent and undeniable charm earned them the top prize. That victory was a launchpad, leading to a record deal with Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company, and the release of their breakout single, “Lawn Chair Lazy,” in 2017. The laid-back anthem quickly gained traction and earned Platinum certification, but it was just the beginning. Their subsequent singles have also earned vast achievements and acclaim.
Fueled by friendship, grit, and a shared love for storytelling, the band has gone from local dive bars to headlining stages across North America and Europe, amassing over 295 million global streams, 12 Gold and Platinum certifications, and the unwavering devotion of fans along the way. Their bustling catalogue has seen a string of successful tracks earning them vast achievements and acclaim including multiple No. 1 Canadian country radio hits, a Billboard Canada Country Chart No.1, several CCMA and CMAO awards and a JUNO Award for Country Album of the Year.
But beyond their record-breaking metrics and awards, James Barker Band’s magic lies in their connection, to each other, to their roots, and to the fans who see themselves in their songs. Every note they play is a tribute to the small towns that raised them, the families that support them, and the communities that keep showing up to cheer them on. With their grounded ethos, infectious energy, and heartfelt storytelling, James Barker Band has made it clear: they’re not just chasing dreams, they’re sharing them. As they continue their rise in Canada, Nashville, and beyond, the band remains the same four humble friends who started it all, proof that sometimes, the best stories come from the simplest beginnings.
With this, the multi-award-winning four-piece is continuing its steadfast ascent in Canada, Nashville and beyond as they reunite with their home country label Universal Music Canada and gear up for a year of new music.
“You Didn’t Hear It From Me,” is not only the #1 song at country radio, but it also currently sits at over 9.3M streams globally. Social views are over 25M across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, Facebook and Snapchat.

In October 1974, Ken Boothe became just the third Jamaican artist ever to top the UK chart (after Desmond Dekker and Dave & Ansel Collins), and the teenaged Jah Wobble was just one of the many who celebrated the achievement.
“Growing up in London, in the 60’s and 70’s , Ken Boothe was a household name to me. His chart-topping success with ‘Everything I Own’ and his string of ska classics weren’t just hits – they were cultural touchstones that helped shape British music identity. While American soul had its giants, Ken stands shoulder to shoulder with any of them, his emotional delivery and range second to none.”
Today Wobble, too, enjoys household name status – Public Image Ltd, Invaders of the Heart and a string of wizard productions including just last year, a phenomenal new album by another reggae great, Horace Andy.
Ken Boothe, though, occupies a very special place in Wobble’s heart.
“Few voices have stirred the soul like Ken Boothe’s. Working alongside this legend has been nothing short of magical. His voice – that unmistakable, warm vibrato – carries decades of musical wisdom yet remains as powerful as when he first graced the Kingston scene.”
And the chance to work alongside him only amplified those emotions. Previewed today by the lush, luscious single “A Song for You,” the album Old Fashioned Ways already feels like an all-time Boothe classic, up there alongside Boothe Unlimited (1972), Blood Brothers (1976) and, of course, Everything I Own.
“What strikes me most is Ken’s humility, despite his monumental influence,” says Wobble. “The man who helped shape rocksteady and touched charts worldwide still brings the same passion to the studio as a newcomer with something to prove.”
Boothe, too, was thrilled by the experience. Old Fashioned Ways, he says, at last offered him the opportunity “to sing songs I have loved over the years. Songs like Donny Hathaway and The Temptations, I am happy that I get the chance to sing them.”
Barbara Lynn’s “You Left the Water Running,” Bill Withers’ “Ain’t No Sunshine,” Motown landmarks “My Girl” and “Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)” – these songs are as much a part of our, the listeners’, musical landscape as they are Boothe and Wobble’s, and they shine as bright as they ought to.
Then there are Boothe’s own past hits – “Everything I Own,” of course; “Crying Over You,” which he first cut in 1966, “Artibella” (1969) and the title cut of 1970’s immortal Freedom Street album… “The songs I sang long ago,” he says, “are like vintage wine; they only get better over time and lots of people love them. I feel elated doing them again”
Wobble continues, “Our recent collaboration breathed new life into those timeless reggae and soul classics. Ken approaches each song not just as a performer, but as a storyteller who’s lived every emotion in those lyrics.
“To collaborate with Ken Boothe isn’t just to work with a reggae icon – it’s to connect with a living piece of our shared musical history. Long may his silver words continue to echo through the hearts of music lovers everywhere.”

Legendary garage‐rock revivalists The Chesterfield Kings return with their explosive new single “Your Strange Love,” out now via Wicked Cool Records on limited‐edition green vinyl. Co‐written by founding King Andy Babiuk and Steven Van Zandt, the track marks another powerful collaboration between longtime friends and rock-’n’-roll purists. The single’s flip side is a cover of The Beatles’ “It’s Only Love”—the band’s first Beatles cover in their decades-long career.
“I always enjoy writing songs with Steven,” says Babiuk. “I had this idea for ‘Your Strange Love,’ and Stevie took the lyrics to a whole different level with a Venus in Furs vibe. He even had us add a tambura to give the song a more mystic feel. Stevie knows how to get the job done!”
“Your Strange Love” was selected as the Coolest Song in the World on Little Steven’s Underground Garage for the week of June 9—a clear nod to the track’s psychedelic atmosphere, rich textures, and gritty, melodic hooks.
On the flip side, the band tackles the Beatles’ “It’s Only Love” with reverent swagger. “Through the years, we never touched a Beatles song because it felt almost sacrilegious,” admits Babiuk. “But when the label asked us to record some covers, I thought, ‘Fuck it—let’s do a Beatles song.’ After all, they are my favorite band! This is our tribute.”
The new single is pulled from the band’s thunderous LP We’re Still All the Same, produced by Ed Stasium (Ramones, Talking Heads, The Smithereens). The 14-track album features recent singles including “Fly the Astral Plane,” “Electrified” (also co-written with Van Zandt), “Meet You After Midnight,” and the title track.
The LP showcases the band’s signature sonic chemistry, fueled by more than 50 vintage guitars and an arsenal of classic amps and keyboards from Babiuk’s vast collection—delivering a record that’s both timeless and unapologetically raw.
With the release of “Your Strange Love,” The Chesterfield Kings kick off their first UK/European tour in decades, beginning June 12. Fans can also catch an in-depth, seven-page feature in the July issue of Vintage Guitar Magazine, where the band breaks down the making of the new LP and the vintage gear behind the sound.
Formed in the late ’70s in Rochester, NY, The Chesterfield Kings have long been heralded as architects of the 1980s garage-rock revival. They’ve released 11 albums, 15 singles, toured worldwide, and appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Late Night with Conan O’Brien, and The Sopranos.
“Your Strange Love” b/w “It’s Only Love” is available June 6 on Wicked Cool Records as a limited-edition green-vinyl pressing.
A.J. Croce, acclaimed artist, singer/songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist, has officially announced the highly anticipated return of Croce Plays Croce, his beloved live celebration honoring the timeless music of his father, legendary singer/songwriter Jim Croce.
The upcoming Croce Plays Croce tour will feature an expanded setlist that includes more of Jim Croce’s iconic catalog, as well as his classic hits including “Time in a Bottle,” “Operator,” “I Got a Name” alongside A.J.’s own critically acclaimed work from his album, Heart of the Eternal. The new Croce Plays Croce tour will begin this fall in September with dates including Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium as well as newly announced shows including New York’s Town Hall, with dates through 2026. See details below.
The tour announcement coincides with the release of the official music video for his new song “Turned Around.”
As described by GLIDE, “The video features A.J. and his band performing the tune in a studio, giving us a look at some of the magic we can expect onstage during his upcoming tour.”
On the forthcoming tour, A.J stated, “This tour is more than a tribute to my father and more than a showcase of my own music— it’s the meeting of my roots and a declaration of my individual artistry. This is a journey through soul and sound.”
On the album track, “Turned Around”, A.J stated, “Writing the lyrics to Turned Around began as a songwriting exercise. I was attempting to make sense out of nonsense. Each verse strings together a story via connecting oxymorons. When there wasn’t an existing oxymoron, then I made one up the way Ogden Nash or Roger Miller made up rhymes when none existed.”
Croce’s newly released album, Heart of the Eternal, produced by Shooter Jennings (Brandi Carlile, Tanya Tucker), is a genre-defying masterclass in piano-driven rock, psychedelic soul, and classic songwriting. Recorded at Los Angeles’ famed Sunset Sound, the album features collaborations with Margo Price and John Oates and has already made waves, debuting in the Top 20 on the Billboard Americana/Folk Albums chart and the Top 40 on the Billboard Current Rock Albums. The album has been praised by outlets such as American Songwriter and Forbes, the latter stating: “What makes the album truly special is its multifaceted examination of the human experience.”
Heart of the Eternal showcases A.J.’s masterful musicianship and genre fluidity — from fuzzed-out rock riffs and Latin-infused jazz-pop to emotionally raw songwriting. Standouts include “Reunion,” co-written with John Oates, and “The Finest Line,” a countrypolitan duet with Margo Price that contemplates the soul’s fate beyond mortality. The album also features legendary studio musicians who have recorded with icons like Van Morrison and Dr. John.
Following the loss of his father at two years old A.J continued to face many challenges in his life and the piano became a lifeline for Croce, who suffered a total loss of eyesight from ages four to ten and turned to blind pianists like Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder for much-needed comfort and inspiration. He became a piano virtuoso and started playing with the likes of B.B. King at just 18 years and over the years has collaborated and performed with legends and luminaries across a wide expanse of genres from Willie Nelson to Ray Charles, Leon Russell, Allen Toussaint, Neville Brothers, Bela Fleck and Ry Cooder, to name a few. All while, A.J has built an acclaimed catalog that blurs the boundaries between blues, soul, rock & roll, roots music, working with of most esteemed producers in music history—including Jack Clement (Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley), Tony Berg (Fiona Apple, Bob Dylan), and Greg Cohen (Tom Waits, John Zorn).
“Music has given me everything: it’s taught me patience and compassion and empathy; it was my refuge and my religion when I lost my sight as a kid,” he says. “When I look back at the music that’s inspired me the most, it’s the music that has real depth and soul to it, whether that’s Little Richard or Otis Redding and Hank Williams or Fiona Apple. Anything that makes me feel is meaningful to me, and I hope that everyone can find that same connection with all of these songs.”

Today, San Diego, CA based musical outfit Slightly Stoopid unveils their new single “Step Into The Sun,” a radiant feel-good summer anthem celebrating life, love and the uplifting sentiment of understanding. Recorded at the famed Sonic Ranch studios in El Paso Texas, the track captures the band’s unmistakable chemistry and the infectious energy that’s earned them a devoted global following over the course of 3 decades of creating music.
“Step Into The Sun” also marks the first single from Slightly Stoopid’s forthcoming tenth studio album, set for release next year. The record will be the band’s first full-length project in eight years, following 2018’s Everyday Life, Everyday People. The single also lends its name to the band’s massive ’Step Into The Sun’ Summer Tour 2025, which kicks off June 12 with the band hitting outdoor stages across North America, including the bands renown annual appearance at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison CO , and performances at Bonnaroo, Cali Vibes Point Break and other select festivals this summer.
Opening with a breezy electric guitar riff layered over strummed acoustic chords, “Step Into The Sun” comes to life with warm flashes of organ, bursts of brass, and the signature vocal interplay of Miles Doughty and Kyle McDonald. They ask, “When’s the sun gonna shine across your eyes again? / When’s the tide gonna hide your footprints in the sand?” before offering a gentle reminder: “Whether you’re right, whether you’re wrong / Whether you see it, or whether you don’t / All in all it’s the life that you’re given / All in all it’s the way that you live it.” Blending elements of acoustic soul and classic rock, the song channels Slightly Stoopid’s unmistakable live energy — a genre-hopping groove that has captivated fans worldwide since their 1994 debut.
Speaking about their new track, Miles Doughty notes: “‘Step Into The Sun’ takes you on a journey as the band reflects on life, love and the ones we share it with. Through the energy of Sonic Ranch Studios we were able to capture the organic feel with the whole band jamming. Hope you feel the love!”
Slightly Stoopid recently visited the KROQ Helpful Honda Sound Space, where they performed “Step Into The Sun” live, along with fan favorites like “2 AM” and their new cover of Sublime’s “Slow Ride.” Watch the performance HERE.
The new track kicks off what promises to be a busy summer for Slightly Stoopid, with a cross-country headlining tour launching June 12. Supported by Iration and Little Stranger, the tour hits major markets like Boston, Philadelphia, Austin, and Charleston, with standout shows at the Santa Barbara Bowl and a return to the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre. The band will also make several highly anticipated festival appearances, including sets at Bonnaroo, Cali Vibes, Brighter Daze, Point Break, and Reggae Rise Up (Oregon and Las Vegas). To get fans ready for the road ahead, Slightly Stoopid has launched a Step Into The Sun Summer Tour 2025 playlist on Spotify — a handpicked mix of sun-soaked tracks to set the vibe for the season. Listen HERE.
Along with the new music and summer tour, Slightly Stoopid recently announced the 11th edition of their Closer to the Sun all-inclusive concert vacation in Mexico.

Florida/Georgia Americana artist Nate Currin returns on August 1 with Ghost Town, a road-worn exploration of heartbreak set against folk-rock, bluegrass, honky-tonk blues and shimmering cosmic country. Written in the aftermath of a massive breakup, the album chronicles a cross-country journey through sorrow and renewal—where every highway mile unearths memories that linger like ghosts in the rearview.
Over two decades Currin has logged more than 900 shows and 800,000 highway miles, occasionally living in a motorhome as he shared stages with Butch Walker, Neon Trees, Blues Traveler, Shawn Mullins, Alabama, Hunter Hayes and Jars of Clay. Ghost Town was tracked in Northern Georgia with Jon Poole and at Gray Matters Studios in Nashville with Matthew Odmark (Jars of Clay), who both co-produce and contribute on drums, keys, horn and guitar arrangements.
Highlights include the desert Western ballad “White Hills,” inspired by Currin’s own 40-acre retreat outside Joshua Tree; the escape anthem “I Don’t Belong Here Anymore,” born from his quarantine-era longing for the open Southwest; and the title track “Ghost Town,” a powerful ballad where once-vibrant places become hollow echoes of lost love. Standouts such as honky-tonk blues rocker “The Crying Wolf,” intimate duet “Let’s Stay In & Put a Dylan Record On” (featuring Peyton Parker of The Voice), and the reflective “Wild Heart” round out a record that is as aching as it is hopeful.
Currin’s songwriting has earned five International Music & Entertainment Awards—multiple Songwriter of the Year wins—alongside Indie Music Award and Georgia Music Award nominations. His earlier work has reached the Top 20 on Apple charts, and his song “Oklahoma” appeared on Showtime’s Shameless.

From the Dirt, the harmony-soaked Americana quartet from central Maryland, will officially release their sophomore album, Colored Edge of Memory, on June 27, 2025. Recorded, produced, mixed, and mastered by Jerry Brown (Doc Watson, Lucinda Williams, Watchhouse, Steep Canyon Rangers) at Chapel Hill’s Rubber Room studio, the ten-track collection melds Bluegrass, Celtic, Americana, and rock ’n’ roll influences into vivid narratives of heartache, addiction, love, loss, and loneliness.
Lead singles “Afterwards, on the Greyhound,” “Angeline,” and “Train Wreck at the Bluegrass Jam” illustrate From the Dirt’s deft interplay of mandolin, fiddle, soaring harmonies, and poetic wordplay. On the ghostly “Silver Maple Spinners,” a lost love drifts back as a specter over a tense Celtic rhythm, while the starkly honest “Quitter (E” and “Trick of the Dark (E” confront addiction’s pull. In contrast, the rollicking bluegrass romp “Train Wreck at the Bluegrass Jam” and the triumphant “Luthier” celebrate musical camaraderie, craftsmanship, and the ties that bind generations of players.
Available June 27, 2025 on all streaming platforms and physical formats.
