Paula Boggs
Paula Boggs has always believed music should take you somewhere. On Sumatra, her new album with the Paula Boggs Band, she makes good on that promise — opening with Gregorian chant recorded at a Seattle cathedral and closing with a joyous civil rights anthem featuring Valerie June and the Blind Boys of Alabama. Rooted in American roots music but ranging freely across folk, gospel, jazz, and spoken word, the album was born from years of walks, voice memos, and a deepening preoccupation with the tension between beauty and loss. Boggs recently sat down to talk about the making of Sumatra and why forward, as she sings on “Route 66,” only works as an action verb.

Dan Wheetman of Marley's Ghost
After 40 years together, the Southern California roots band Marley's Ghost shows no signs of slowing down — and their latest album proves it. Honky Tonk is a deep dive into the music that shaped them, featuring songs from Hank Williams, Waylon Jennings, and other giants of country music, recorded live in the studio with producer Larry Campbell. It's an album that smirks and stomps, carrying the weight of a lifetime spent in smoky bars and on stages across the country. Dan Wheetman, vocalist and founding member, sat down to talk about what it means to really live inside a song, how four decades of friendship shapes a band's sound, and why an older voice is sometimes exactly what a honky tonk tune needs.

The Funeral Portrait's Lee Jennings
<b>The Funeral Portrait's Lee Jennings on Arena Rock, the song “Dark Thoughts,” and Dealing with Sadness</b><br />After a year of spending 290 days on tour, the success of the album Suffocate City, and a lineup change, Lee Jennings of The Funeral Portrait has arrived at something rare: clarity. Recorded before their performance at the Lenovo Center in Raleigh, Jennings opens up about learning to stop running from hard emotions, why he's letting the fans own "Stay Weird," and how a decade of grinding finally gave the band both the songs and the stage presence for arenas.<br />--<br />Bands To Fans: Grow your fan base in just one hour a month and never deal with social media again.
