“Every Song” by ON AN ON, from the fantastic album Give In. The Minneapolis/Chicago trio are also excited to announce Summer tour dates, including a west coast run with Sweden’s Junip. Look for the band at upcoming festivals Iceland Airwaves and Bonnaroo.

New York-based folker Sam Amidon‘s new long player, “Bright Sunny South”, is now up for advanced listening on Pitchfork Advance. The perenially-overlooked Amidon’s upcoming release takes some off of the rough edges of his previous work, but this doesn’t come at the expense of his identity; this is still the same off-beat artist we’ve come to know.

“Bright Sunny South” is available May 14 on Nonesuch Records.
Head to Pitchfork Advance to hear the album, or take a listen to “My Old Friend” from the record below.
