Ahead of his debut Riser House/Columbia Nashville album Telling All My Secrets due everywhere on December 14, singer/songwriter Mitchell Tenpenny shares a new song, “Walk Like Him,” written by Tenpenny, Justin Ebach and Steven Dale Jones.
It took a long time for Tenpenny, who lost his father, Mitch, four years ago to a battle with cancer, to muster the words for “Walk Like Him.” It wasn’t until three years after his father passed that inspiration struck late one night driving his band’s van while everyone slept.

The Ratchets Release Music Video For “Dotard At The Dial!”
Following the release of their debut LP Glory Bound in 2006, The Ratchets were hailed by many as a younger generation’s answer to The Clash. And while other bands of their caliber zoomed onto the rock and roll highway only to quickly run out of gas, The Ratchets stayed on the side streets and meandered around on local roads guarding their credibility like it was the crown jewels. Turns out, at least in their case, brevity is the soul of wit, because their first full length in over ten years is their best showing yet.

Be born with hemophilia.
Be infected with HIV and Hepatitis C through plasma medication in 1983 at age 10.
Almost die of AIDS at 24.
But live.
Write a memoir of your struggle. Title it BLEEDER.
When Michigan State Press publishes the book, get national press reviews, an interview on NPR with Bob Edwards, and win several awards.
Then, as if that isn’t enough catharsis to express the hurt and struggle, write and record songs in your basement, fill in the gaps not healed by putting words on a page.
Call it BLEEDER.
Release the songs.

Lost Weekend was born. The E.P. was recorded with longtime friend, Nashville’s Jerry Wayne Campbell (Spider Virus/Millionaire Magicians) and producer Sean Flora (Black Keys/Shins/Stephen Malkmus).

London artist SAKIMA has shared his new track “Apps” featuring Robokid. In SAKIMA’s own words, “I made this song as a retort to the dating/hook up culture that seems almost impossible to get away from if you’re ‘in the game’ as it were. I was dating someone in particular and it was going really well but by the end of it, it transpired that even though this guy really liked me he just wasn’t ready to give one person his attention.” Read the full quote and hear the song at Highsnobiety.
JØUR Revises Her “American Nightmare”
“American Nightmare” was originally written to expose JØUR’s uncertainty of the proverbial ‘American Dream.’ “I originally wrote this song several years ago about blindly following the ‘American Dream’ of getting a job, moving to the suburbs, getting married, having kids, etc.,” explains JØUR. “I felt at the time that my life was flying in the face of conventionality when I quit my 9-5 finance job to pursue art and music, and everyone was cautioning me about taking such a huge risk, when for me the biggest nightmare and risk would be to have that version of the American Dream.” The remix was produced by Lazerbeak who is the founder of Doomtree, a Minnesota hip-hop collective and record label that includes artists such as Dessa and P.O.S. Hearing the original “American Nightmare” Lazerbeak was intrigued and agreed to collaborate on a remix, thus the newly remixed “American Nightmare” was born.
