So, Township worked on a full length with Ed and Denzel, but things being what they are, they’re releasing the record as three separate EP’s. Second installment of the batch came out this week, and it’s rocktastic and futuristic. We’ve put it right here, but you should also saunter over to Bandcamp and buy a copy.

Hillary Reynolds Band – Honey, Come Home (Video)
Honey, Come Home is the first song and video to be released from HRB’s upcoming album, The Miles Before Us.
The Hillary Reynolds Band have been very hard at work, with Joe Tooley, in every room in Q Division, recording and mixing beautiful, lush songs. Honey, Come Home features bowed bass, cello, mandolin, acoustic guitar, quiet drums, piano (our baby grand), and Hillary’s beautiful voice (ok, and some lovely harmonies from the dudes too).
Will Dailey Releases National Throat (Vinyl)
The long awaited Will Dailey album is now available on vinyl.
Our copy was hand-delivered sometime in the wee hours and looks fantastic. You can get it at willdailey.com
My favorite thing so far? That Side A was sponsored by Mike O’Malley!
The band had a lot of fun in the studio when Will was here,
Ed Romanoff – Must Have Done Something Right (Video)
This is a great little video in which Ed Romanoff and his dog mull over all the things that could have hindered their friendship. Somehow, the friendship survives.
I drink all your good whiskey, sprawled out on your couch
I pass out watching wrestling, but you never throw me out
I know just being with me would kind of hurt your pride
Lucky for me you don’t care what people say
I talk too much and I laugh too loud
I know you hate it when I leave…
Recorded and mixed by Matt Beaudoin, and produced by Crit Harmon. Must Have Done Something Right is from Ed Romanoff’s eponymous 2012 debut.
John Powhida International Airport – Airport Life (BC)
If you feel like you’ve been waiting a minute for the new JPX album, you’re probably right. But, it’s been worth the wait!
The new release from John Powhida International Airport finds our hero J-Po (and an all-star cast) in top form. 15 songs of smooth soul, funk, rock, and prog-art madness on a range of subject: Relationships, drinking, procreating, traveling, playing hide and seek, the mad world of music, and the people who make it. Horns, pulsating synths, guitarmonies, searing guitar solos, mad harmonies; this album has it all.
Jon Lupfer co-produced and engineered a many of these tracks, and others in the Q family of engineers also helped along the way.
My personal favorites? It’s hard to choose when you’ve got an album of great tunes like this, but Ridgfield Park always brings a smile, and Airport Life with its nod to Bowie and Zappa is a real blast.
Related: We released a JPX 45 a few years ago as part of our Rock and Soul 45 series. You can pick it up here. It has two songs on it – Daddy’s the Man, b/w Surrender To The Disco Knightz.
