Listen to Courtney Barnett’s Cover of Kev Carmody’s ‘Just For You’

Courtney Barnett has released an acoustic cover of  Indigenous Australian singer-songwriter Kev Carmody’s ‘Just For You’. It’s taken from a tribute album of Carmody’s songs titled Cannot Buy My Soul, which was originally released in 2007 and will be reissued with new songs on August 21 through EMI Australia, featuring Jimmy Barnes, Kasey Chambers, Kate Miller-Heidke, Alice Skye, Electric Fields, and more. Listen to it below.

“I’ve only met her just lately, and, very impressed with this young woman, Courtney Barnett,” Carmody said in a video posted on Barnett’s Instagram. “‘Just for You,’ it’s virtually a love song that I’ve directed at everybody, for everybody … It’s trying to get right to the core to say even though we have our disagreements and stuff, I still love you all very much, and I love you as an individual very much.”

A few days, Barnett collaborated with Phoebe Bridgers for a cover Gillian Welch’s ‘Everything Is Free’ at the Newport Folk Festival’s virtual weekend.

The Staves Return with New Song ‘Nazareth’

Folk trio The Staves have returned with a new song called ‘Nazareth’. Listen to it below.

“We recorded “Nazareth” in one take on a field recorder sat outside the studio in the summer of 2018,” the Stavely-Taylor sisters said in a statement. “The sun was shining and the birds were singing. We tried recording it in the studio but just kept coming back to this version. It seemed to have the magic .”

They added: “The song was intended to be in the spirit of an Irish blessing or a kind of a prayer, asking to be kept safe — but it pretty quickly became a more personal and introspective lyric. Moments of glory quickly faded. Worrying, trying. How we mean everything and nothing at the same time. To everyone, to noone.”

It’s been five years since The Staves released their critically acclaimed album If I Was. In 2017, they followed it up with a collaborative LP with yMusic. According to a press release by their label, Nonesuch, the band are putting “finishing touches” on more music.

Taylor Swift Unveils ‘folklore’ Bonus Cut ‘the lakes’

When Taylor Swift announced her surprise new album folklore two weeks ago, she revealed that physical editions would contain a bonus cut titled ‘the lakes’. Now that CDs and vinyls are reaching stores, that song has officially been unveiled, though the physical-only cut still remains off streaming services.

‘The Lakes’ was co-written and co-produced by longtime collaborator Jack Antonoff, and unlike much of folklore, The National’s Aaron Dessner was not involved in the making of the track. It’s named after the Lake District in the United Kingdom, a place popularized by Romantic poets such as William Wordsworth and Samuel Coleridge. It finds her yearning for a simpler time: “A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground with no one around to tweet it,” she sings, “While I bathe in cliffside pools with my calamitous love and insurmountable grief.” She also refers to someone, presumably longtime boyfriend Joe Alwyn, as her “muse”.

folklore recently became the top-selling album of 2020. Last week, Taylor Swift also unveiled the “cabin in the candlelight” version of lead single ‘cardigan’.

And whether it’s better to stay in it together in a messed up way.”

Listen to the New James Blake-Produced Song by Flatbush Zombies

Flatbush Zombies have shared a new single, the James Blake-produced ‘Afterlife’. It comes with with an accompanying music video directed by Arnaud Bresson and shot in Paris before the COVID-19 pandemic. Check it out below.

“Today, there is no technology that x-ray films a living being without endangering it, so we worked hand in hand with a post-production company to develop a technical device that would allow us to achieve a similar effect,” Bresson explained in a press release. “We used multi-camera tracking, recorded the positions and movements of our characters to extract and apply to our 3D compositions. It took four months of work to find the perfect style.”

Flatbush Zombies put out their latest EP now, more than ever in June, following their 2018 album Vacation in Hell. James Blake recently unveiled the single ‘Are You Even Real?’.
