jesse jarnow...now resuming, a rolling/occasional thread of new(ish) jams & releases i'm enjoying. #music
bold move to put out an album in august titled "august" that successfully channels august (& especially mellow late august evenings), but good for scree, who at least put out "jasmine on a night in july" in spring. airy floating jazz, ala super gentle frisell. https://screeband.bandcamp.com/album/august
August, by Scree
11 track album
i think the submissives might be on hiatus, but delightful weirdo rock, like an all-women "freak out" era mothers with the shaggs knob turned up slightly (minus the disjointedness), or maybe like an expanded version of the late great grass widow. https://submissives.bandcamp.com/album/live-at-value-sound-studios
Live At Value Sound Studios, by The Submissives
13 track album

kaleidoscopic australian sunshine-psych delights by bananagun, pleasurably engaging my canterbury receptors. https://bananagun.bandcamp.com/album/why-is-the-colour-of-the-sky

sweet & fun music made by a goddamn beatle, 2025 edition. enjoying ringo's country album & especially this tune. (was also quite charmed by his linda perry-written EP last year.) https://youtu.be/YCShp4ZTi1U
Ringo Starr - Come Back (Audio) ft. Lucius
i'm just slightly late to the SML party, but this is a strain of future #jazz i've been waiting for, tactile new pathways & shapes. excited to catch their #nyc return in december. https://intlanthem.bandcamp.com/album/small-medium-large
Small Medium Large, by SML

Joe Germuska@bourgwick If you haven’t, follow those band members to their other projects. I’m especially into Anna Butterss, whether solo, with Daniel Villarreal, and in Jeff Parker’s ETA IVtet
@JoeGermuska yeah, that's more or less how i came to them, though other pathways to check. really loved booker stardrum's old band, cloud becomes your hand.
