Eric Din - Street Party
Street Party is Eric's first solo album, which he produced at home and at various Bay Area studios. The album is like a journal of sorts, with musings on some of the madness of recent years. Eric played guitar on all of them, bass on most, and keyboards on a few. He's joined by some of his musical comrades on drums and other instruments, mostly collaborating remotely during COVID.
Altameda - Born Losers
Written in the midst of deep personal tragedy and dramatic emotional upheaval, Altameda’s stunning new album, Born Losers, is a meditation on change, loss, and growth, but more than that, it’s a reckoning with mortality, a call to live while we’re still alive. The music here is more subtle than ever before, with raw, candid performances arriving wrapped inside gorgeous, gently atmospheric arrangements, and the lyrics showcase a similar leap in scope and maturity, grappling with our dueling desires for connection and escape through visceral, cinematic imagery that finds meaning in the mundane.
Tamar Berk - Start At The End
Tamar Berk created Start at the End... with one door closing, others opened, and the cycle of life renewed on an album of introspection, but also action taken, moving forward tentatively, the journey chronicled step by step like a book of short stories, with her characteristic blend of ‘60s psychedelia, ‘70s punk and ‘80s power pop, leavened with strains of folk and country.
