Album Review: Bullseye - Bullseye EP

Bullseye

S/T

***and1/2 out of *****

Expanding from a lo-fi/bedroom pop project from Jake Barczak into a full fledge band, Bullseye's self-titled EP is a winning mix of fuzzy indie rock that flirts with a host of genres but manages to make its own way. 

Sazerwrap 2026

Shannon Powell 

Powell's Place

**** out of *****

Happy Anniversary to Angels & Vagabonds Anyways... EP

RtBE not only writes about music, but I also create some. Angels & Vagabonds (mostly) acoustic EP titled Anyways... celebrated an anniversary recently.

It is exciting to go from critic/reviewer of music, to creator of tunes. Special thanks goes out to friends and bandmates who helped with this one. While it has been quite a few years since a release from the group, more music is actually on the way...

Dylan Cover #732 Bonker Brothers "When The Ship Comes In" Live

In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a live cover by the Bonker Brothers playing "When The Ship Comes In" 

Thoughts on Original: From the first time we tackled a cover of this tune:

One of our favorite songs from the early days of Dylan. The purest Irish Folk we felt he ever got, Joan Baez was a fan of this one and told a cool story during No Direction Home, about him being pissed at a hotel attendant and then having this song just spiral out of him. Images of the sea, the salt, the song, raiding/pillaging; a pirate song at heart. When we are looking for pure folk Dylan this one usually finds it's way to our ears.

Cover:

Thoughts on Cover Artist:

This is RtBE's first time hearing the Bonker Brothers and there is not much online about them. 

Thoughts on Cover:

A cover played with the quickness and as we have highlighted before, it has a Gaelic vibe that really works well with this song. A great pub tune played by this mysterious bunch of players. 

Happy 50th Anniversary to Warren Zevon's Self-Titled Album

On this day in 1976 Warren Zevon released Warren Zevon, and today we celebrate its 50th Anniversary.

Album Review: Oh Dang - Big Dogs

Oh Dang

Big Dogs

***and1/2 out of *****

The five piece New Orleans based outfit Oh Dang's new release, Big Dogs, mixes 90's alt-rock with alt-country, all supporting the engaging male/female lead vocals that draw the listener in. The groups second full length effort finds them expanding, evolving the the band's sound.

Happy 35th Anniversary to Primus' Sailing the Seas of Cheese

Album Review: Tedeschi Trucks Band - Future Soul

Tedeschi Trucks Band

Future Soul

** out of *****

Following up on their stretched out, expansive four album collection I Am The Moon, Tedeschi Trucks Band has scaled back ambitions releasing eleven shorter tracks via their new album Future Soul. While professional and pleasant the group never lives up to the album title promise.

Dylan Post #731 So Much Face "Million Miles" Live

In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a live cover by So Much Face playing "Million Miles"

Thoughts on Original:

From the first time we tackled a cover of this tune:

From the barren blues of Time Out Of Mind comes "Million Miles". While not a standout on that album, the song was prophetic, hinting at the fantastic twelve bar blues variations that would dominate Dylan's next two releases. When first heard though it doesn't jump out, just feels like yet ANOTHER solid track from the bard that is ripe for covering. 

Cover:

Thoughts on Cover Artist:

A New York based rock outfit, this is the first time we are hearing So Much Face. 

Thoughts on Cover:

A gripping blues cover that drips with garage rocking passion. A really cool, slow burning, Dylan cover. 

New Single from The Rolling Stones "In The Stars"

A little band from London called The Rolling Stones have a new single out, "In The Stars"

Album Review: Mariachi El Bronx - Mariachi El Bronx (IV)

Mariachi El Bronx

Mariachi El Bronx (IV)

***and1/2 out of *****

Back in 2009 the Los Angeles punk rock band The Bronx decided to take a major detour and dive into their love of Mariachi music with an alter ego band, Mariachi El Bronx. It is safe to say their most die hard fans did not see this side project not only continuing, but flourishing for over fifteen years. Now comes the fourth installment, Mariachi El Bronx (IV) and their deep love of this genre of music continues to mix with rock, punk and pop in interesting ways.

Live Review: ChazFest Goes Abroad - 4/29/26 The Broadside, New Orleans, LA

ChazFest Goes Abroad

4/29/26 The Broadside 

New Orleans, LA

Twenty years ago New Orleans based musician Alex McMurray and his wife Kourtney Keller developed a local music festival, in-between Jazzfest weekends in New Orleans. The all day event would spotlight musicians from their Bywater neighborhood and was named after Washboard Chaz, who would also play with every act throughout the day. This year the festival returned, arriving at a new location, The Broadside in Mid-City, but a lot of friendly faces who played past ChazFest's were on hand to kick off this new era of the all day festival.

New Single from MOONRIIVR "Force of Habit"

The Toronto based MOONRIIVR has a new single out, "Force of Habit".

About the song, the group states:

Album Review: Charlotte Cornfield - Hurts Like Hell

Charlotte Cornfield

Hurts Like Hell

***and1/2 out of *****

For her sixth studio album, the Canadian based singer/songwriter Charlotte Cornfield deals with motherhood for the first time and the new outlook on life which that brings. The opening "Before" sets the tone as Cornfield repeats the phrase "Real love, no fantasy". The sheen may be off, but the raw emotions are the ones that stick around.  

New Single and Video from Borderline "That Girl"

The New Zealand based rock outfit Borderline has a new single/video out for "That Girl".

About the song the band states:

New Single from Mixol "mixologist"

Dylan Cover #730 Carson McKee "My Back Pages" Live

In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a live cover by Carson McKee of "My Back Pages"

Thoughts on Dylan Original:

From the first time we tackled a cover of this song:

The original has taken upon itself a cultural importance, and the chorus has simply become iconic. I doubt Dylan intended such, but it toes the line of out and out protest and illustrative questions. He puts down everyone from evangelists to girls, but the language snakes and flows so magically that it doesn't seem as harsh as "Positively 4th St" or "Ballad in Plain D". The sense of exhaling desperation or at least the realization that age confuses things even more seems to be what I take from this tune after each listen, but things can change...or can they?

Cover:

Thoughts on Cover Artist:

RtBE has featured Carson twice before in our Monday Dylan Cover series and dig his style. 

Thoughts on Cover:

Mr. McKee is getting better with age, this song is relaxed, lived in and excellent. A great straight ahead cover to start off the week. 

Debut Single/Video from A-100's "Too Rad To Be Sad"

Live Review: Bob Dylan - 4/27/26 River Center Theatre for the Performing Arts, Baton Rouge, LA

Bob Dylan

4/27/26 River Center Theatre for the Performing Arts

Baton Rouge, LA

For ten plus days during the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival at the end of April/beginning of May, hundreds of thousands of music fans flock to southern Louisiana for one of the most diverse and unique modern day, large scale American music festivals. Bob Dylan hasn't played the festival in twenty years, but decided to make a tour stop on Monday night, between major weekends, an hour and twenty minutes north of the city.

The Murray, KY based folk artist S.G. Goodman, who delivered one of RtBE's favorite albums of 2025 with Planting By The Signs, has released her cover of the classic Butthole Surfer gem, "Pepper". 

The tune is a bit more folksy to start but ends with a cosmic freakout the original band would have certainly enjoyed. Give it a spin below:
