Really good article

It's voluntary, no one's making them do it, but here's an entire book about our indie bands that take years off their lives by cramming into a van for six hours, then shoveling down road food, for weeks on end. #indie

Henceforth, please start mentioning Stephen Miller as “President miller”. Because it’s the truth and it will drive Trump crazy. #PresidentMiller

President Miller and the disoriented old man that he's running need to be removed from office before they do any more damage.

I'm once again asking you to take a moment to reset with a medicating infusion of soul and then continue the fight. #sade #musiciansky

Walter Cronkite's microphone is now MAGA-run (lied about Jan. 6) and censoring news (killed the CECOT prison story) and we need to do something about it NOW. #NoCBS

It's crucially important to boycott, cancel, and delete all media under the Paramount Global umbrella - that's CBS, Paramount Plus, Showtime, BET, MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central), Paramount Pictures, and publishing (Simon & Schuster). #treason

Just a few days ago, a one-two punch of totally damning new Epstein files and Jack Smith testimony, but then he murdered 80 people in order to kidnap a guy and steal a country's stuff, so he's...back?

Norah Jones. With Christian McBride and Questlove. Effortless, total bad-assery. #musiciansky #norahjones

You can see from space, when you read Marjorie Taylor Greene's latest statements, that she was a totally false, invented person up until now, or vice versa. Just like there's no real JD Vance. Very creepy and disturbing.

Someone help explain - you get a scathing lecture if you suggest that the tall woman in the sparkly onesie may not be the greatest music artist of the past 100 years, but a major music mag has 3 of her new songs in their "Worst of 2025". #popmusic

Driving to work today, I accidentally cut in front of a guy driving a Keebler cookie truck. He gave me the Vienna finger.

We've got this guy on the ropes now, he's going down.

A magnificent piece in defense of decency from JoJo.

There’s a reason the political right wants to keep people dumb.

More Best of 2025 - "James McMurtry may be the truest, fiercest songwriter of his generation..." Stephen King | Entertainment Weekly #americana #music

More 2025 best - with her honest and humble mastery, Laura and her bandmates make American Songbook sound like right now. Get hip to the magic now before she goes all the way big time. #lauraanglade #music

Punching down is very bad form, but punching up? Sure! Paste Magazine delivers crisp uppercuts to Benson Boone, Morgan Wallen, and even the tall 36 -year-old woman in the sparkly onesie. #musicsky

We got another one - best of 2025, Ty Segall, "Possession". You get 3 tunes on Bandcamp, but you gotta buy it to hear the whole thing, which you'll do. YOU SHOULD DO. T-shirts, stickers, and special-issue vinyl don't pay the rent. #tysegall #indiemusic

1 Grammy, 4 nominations, Tonight show, Kimmel, and still almost everyone I ask says "no, never heard of her". Best album of 2025: Madison Cunningham, "Ace" #musicsky

Why does Role Model taking up the precious music slot on SNL make me think our civilization is circling the drain? #okayboomer #itsucks

What's the cutoff year for music being rescued from the primordial, unsettled limbo of American Songbook, Gershwin, Ellington, Jazz and all that? 1959? 1964? Because if you google "10 greatest songs of ALL TIME" you get "Hotel California", "Imagine", "Smells Like Teen Spirit", etc.. #musiciansky

More best of 2025. It's a single, not album, but the world needs more Disclosure and definitely more Anderson .Paak #musiciansky

Do you depend on Spotify royalties for your rent and food money? No, and you never will. So why the hell is your music still on there? #spotifysucks #oligarchy

More best of 2025. It's from 2024, but who cares. Clear the way, Ruthie Foster's in the house. #americana #texas

More top 10 of 2025. You kids love that rock and roll from North Wales? #indierock

Notice how the Repubs no longer claim to be all about patriotism, the flag, founding fathers, the constitution, bill of rights, etc. Because all that old-fashioned, outdated stuff just gets in MAGA's way.

From the Atlantic: Garth Brooks‘ speech at the Kennedy Center praised Kiss for their “commonsense chord changes”. God: Note to self, earth not working out.

Palate Cleanser Alert - Alberta Hunter went pro in 1909, recorded this in her 80's in 1980. 71 years of American music experience in her voice. #musiciansky #realthing

What makes a Mike Johnson happen? What kind of twisted social malignancy grows that? Fascinated by the guy.

More Top 10 albums of 2025. Esther Rose. #americana

More best of 2025. Wednesday, this album. #indie

More Top 10 albums of 2025 - Keith Jarrett's New Vienna, one of his last solo concerts. God: I'm sending an asteroid. St. Peter: But they created this. God: cancels asteroid. #musiciansky #jazz

And now VeryBigMusic's top 10 albums of 2025 in no particular order!!! Warning: the dreaded mixing of genres will occur. We'll start with Bunny White #musicsky #indie #indiepop

Our system of government has deteriorated to the point that no matter how many fishermen they murder, hard-working legal immigrants they kidnap and brutalize, and families they destroy, they will never see the inside of a jail cell.

You can treat your beloved music like those brown throw-away napkins at a barbecue joint, or you can value it like a classy human by paying on bandcamp or buying physical media. Which is it? #spotifysucks #indiemusic

Example: Tidal has over 110 million tracks but AI says "Tidal failed because of its limited selection". Monopolies and billionaires are bad and AI feeds you what they want you to think. #spotifysucks #indiemusic

When you pick ‘em to click 5 years ago after seeing a kid on YouTube singing “My Buddy” with a ukulele in her house - priceless. Go Laura! #Lauraanglade

He's been telling us in his own words since 2015 how much he admires "strong leader" Vladimir Putin, and for 10 straight years we act surprised every time he works on Russia's behalf, or speaks in favor of an opposition-crushing Putin-style government.

Road tested and seasoned Americana songwriter Esther Rose's 2025 album, her best yet. #americana #country

That's it, the dems & libs are going too far! Next election, I'm voting to replace our radical leftist Marxist president, congress, and supreme court with MAGATs. #sarcasm

3rd of the day: S.G. Goodman #Alt-country #americana

2nd: Annahstasia #alternative #soul

You're gonna get THREE (3) recommended artists today for the price of one. They all deserve their own day. 1. Cat Clyde. #indie

Thank you Mr. Mayfield. This Is My Country. #curtismayfield

There is not enough awe on this planet to send to this track, this man, this day in 1977. The Bayou Maharajah. The Piano Prince of New Orleans. #Jamesbooker #neworleans
