𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲‼️“From a long silence forms a divide, a great expanse demanding attention. I stare across it. I see old friends, my father, my mother, my siblings, my younger self, the great state of Vermont. I want to scream these feelings, to gesticulate wildly at the figures on the other side, but my voice has grown hoarse and muted after years of climbing a ladder towards the wild, spiraling dreams that have materialized in front of me. Instead, I wrote them down next to a piano in Nashville, next to a pond in Guilford, Vermont, in a legendary studio in upstate New York, on a farm with a firetower in Only, Tennessee. The songs are the words I would say if I could. They are the fears I dance with in the moments before I drift off to sleep. The music here is my best attempt to delve deeper into the people, places, and feelings that have made me who I am. I am grateful for all of it, for all of you, for listening to them, if you choose to do so.” - Noah Kahan

A decade of dankness. In honor of the 10th anniversary of the box set that started it all, Jazz Dispensary is excited to present Cosmic Stash: HIGH Lights. A limited edition 4/20 release featuring tracks by Johnny Hammond, Patrice Rushen, David Axelrod, Gary Bartz, and more harvested from the original Cosmic Stash box set, pressed on a limited edition four splatter LP packaged in a "grass bag".

GALVEZTON - Multicultural poet and musician Robert Kuhn was born in Houston, Texas and moved back in 2010 after bouncing around the world for twelve years. Texas, New York, Pennsylvania, Australia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica and Nicaragua all played home for him as different doors, jobs, occupations and art forms opened and led him on from an Academic All-American Line Backer to a vagabond fisherman farmer writing the critically acclaimed songs he has carried throughout the Americas. Broken hearts, broken backs, failed marriages, violence, riches, drugs, labor, poverty, music, poetry, dirt and salt; so it goes and continues.

            Back in Houston, Robert joined forces with like-minded musicians (including extraterrestrial ancient bluesman Little Joe Washington), surf rock n’ rollers and reggae ragamuffins to form a band and recorded the album “Everybody Knows”. It was Little Joe’s last studio work and recognized by the press as one of Houston’s Top Releases of 2014. Kuhn’s latest album, PERSEVERE, a transcendent collection of psychedelic folk rock n’roll was produced at home in Galveston, Texas after his last tour was cut short by a nearly fatal van wreck in Colorado. It is scheduled for release in 2021.

           This world is changing so fast. Robert hopes it will again take him back on the road to share this rich new music with the friends and family he’s made along the way.

TYSON WEBB - "Tyson Webb doesn’t just play music—he lives it. A Texas-born storyteller with a voice that sticks with you like a late-night highway tune, his songs are full of grit, poetry, and raw honesty. Raised in Galveston County, he grew up in the glow of neon-lit dive bars, surrounded by live bands and the restless pull of the Gulf.

Music was always in him, but a year in the Navy made it clear—it wasn’t just a passion, it was his path. With an old guitar and a knack for turning life into lyrics, Webb took to the road, writing songs that mix humor with heartbreak, resilience with reflection. His sound is rooted in the legends—Willie, Waylon, Townes—but his voice is all his own.

Off stage, he’s the kind of guy who shows up when you need a hand, down for the next adventure, always ready to share a song or a story. He’s not chasing fame—he’s chasing something real." - Streetnoiseproduction.com

It isn't often when a country singer has the rock-solid guts of Dust Bowl reveries, the jacked-up locomotion of the early Bakersfield country sound and the more modern-minted energy of Los Angeles' honky-tonk hijinks all rolled into one righteous attack. But that's George Ducas' soul to share. On his new album, LONG WAY FROM HOME, there is a distinct feeling of a new history being born. Maybe that's because Ducas is able to seamlessly connect all those elements with such a natural flair that it can be a bit overwhelming when the sound is flying at full-tilt.

On his previous albums it was obvious that something serious has always been happening with the man's music. It could be felt in the rhythms the songs featured, in the lyrics of someone who takes songwriting seriously, and maybe most of all in the voice of an all-time great country music singer. Ducas has had multipleBillboard chart hits of his own, including the breakout Top 10 “Lipstick Promises," and has even written hit records for all-timers like George Jones, Garth Brooks, The (“Dixie”) Chicks, and Trisha Yearwood and been nominated for a Grammy Award, but he’s never made an album like LONG WAY FROM HOME.

Now, teaming with Platinum producer/guitar player Pete Anderson, it is as if everything has coalesced into an undeniable force which happens once or twice a decade in country music. George Ducas is now that person moving the sound forward while always respecting what has come before him. His life and his vision have come together to create anew achievement bound to cross new borders, and so out of Los Angeles, California, the journey begins with LONG WAY FROM HOME.

𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲‼️After the club music meditations of 2018’s 𝘏𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘺, 𝘚𝘦𝘹𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘭 features nine playful pop songs that tie back to her era-defining Body Talk trilogy, designed to feel “like a spaceship coming through the atmosphere at a really high speed and crash landing”, she says. “That’s how I felt, like I’d had all these experiences searching too far out into space, and now I’m crashing back into myself.”The album’s title started as an in-joke before she realised it said everything she wanted to say. “Exploring my sensual life is the same feeling as when I make a good song,” she explains. “It’s such a beautiful, kind of sensitive vibration that takes so much work to keep afloat. I feel like the purpose of my life is to stay horny - it doesn’t even have to be about sex, but it’s feeling sensual and attracted to things that I enjoy, and not letting anything take over that.”

Bentley's Bandstand: February 2026

by Bill Bentley

Freddie Steady's Wild Country, PASS THAT JUG! Freddie Steady just might be the hardest working man in show business. In his long and amazing career it seems he's played in every band that ever set foot in Texas and then some, was in on some of the mightiest capers in show business and ended up with a solo career that stands up to many. His latest album is one that shines to the moon and back, and really sets up Mr. Steady in the bright lights like never before. There are several songs on PASS THAT JUG! that could easily go down in the history books as some of the best of this half-done decade, and also score bright on the klieg lights as some of the most moving of any original songs so far. They wrap up one big bundle of emotions into one big treasure of what life feels like in a crazy time, and offer some tidbits here and there on how to keep pushing and get to that place where freedom and love stand tall. Considering this man's extensive career has seen all the ups and downs of show business, there is almost a self-help handbook for how to keep going with a smile in place on the face and a swizzle in the sizzle on the drum kit. There really aren't many artists like Freddie Steady, he seems to somehow turn the clock in reverse and make his smile stretch miles and the light of love burn bright. Accept no substitutes.

𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲‼️The title of 𝘈𝘙𝘐𝘙𝘈𝘕𝘎 directly refers to the overall inspiration behind the album. Created with the concept of “Arirang” — a traditional Korean folk song renowned around the world — in mind, BigHit Music said in a statementthat the 14-track set will be “a deeply reflective body of work” that explores the members’ “identity and roots.”Drawing on “the emotional depth of ‘Arirang,’” the album is also described as conveying “yearning, longing and the ebb and flow of life.”“We have a diversity of genres,” Suga said of 𝘈𝘙𝘐𝘙𝘈𝘕𝘎 in a Feb. 13, 2025, GQ cover story. “What I can tell you is that it’s going to be quite different from the BTS albums and sounds that you’ve been listening to. You’re going to see a more mature side of BTS this time around.”“It’s truly the whole package,” RM added in the interview. “I can tell this next album is going to enlighten a little of that confusion.”

The In-Store Performance is free to attend.

‍Aubrie Sellers is a genre-bending artist and songwriter from Nashville, who has been making waves since her debut album New City Blues earned a spot as one of Rolling Stone Country's Albums of the Year in 2016. Sellers premiered her unique style—a blend of influences ranging from Led Zeppelin to Ralph Stanley dubbed “garage country”—on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert that same year. A wave of critical reception followed, with appearances on Seth Meyers and a spot next to artists like Sabrina Carpenter, Lizzo, and Billie Eilish as one of Elle’s Women in Music.

After touring with Miranda Lambert and Chris Stapleton, Sellers' 2020 sophomore album, Far From Home, garnered two nominations at the Americana Awards. Her side project with Jade Jackson, Jackson+Sellers, was lauded as “passionate and gritty” on NPR’s Fresh Air and was one of The New York Times' "15 Best Acts at SXSW" in 2021. Her song “Far From Home” was featured in Yellowstone, landing her in the all-genre Shazam Top 100.

Now, Sellers is set to release her third solo album, Attachment Theory, on March 20, 2026. Equal parts gritty and luminous, the record expands her “garage country” sound into new sonic territory while delving into the psychology of human connection. Paired with a companion podcast of the same name, Attachment Theory is a bold, multidimensional project that cements Sellers’ place as one of the most compelling voices in modern music.
