Bon Iver, SABLE,

The threadbare arrangements and starkly poetic sense of woe and wonder found on Justin Vernon’s new EP fit his back catalog like a wooly, moth-eaten sweater.

Jordana, Lively Premonition

Refitting the yacht rock and Laurel Canyon sounds of the ’70s and ’90s country for the modern bedroom-pop era, the songwriter’s willingness to experiment keeps her fourth LP interesting.

Porridge Radio, Clouds in the Sky They Will Always Be There for Me

Largely inspired by vocalist Dana Margolin’s dreams, the Brighton band’s fourth album is a darkly poetic reclaiming of self that softens their prior output’s jagged edges.

The Ford in LA announced this year's summer live music lineup, which has quite the range. Rufus Wainwright, Ani Di Franco, She & Him, Melissa Etheridge, José González, Best Coast, Kamasi Washington, Warpaint, Ibeyi, and Nubya Garcia will all take the LA stage between June and September.

"As one of the oldest performing arts venues in Los Angeles, The Ford holds a storied place in the city’s history, and we embrace that history with every artist and ensemble that takes our stage," The Ford's director Cynthia Fuentes said. "More than ever before, this year will be about celebrating bright and brilliant voices across different genres. The 2022 season will shine a spotlight on LA’s own artists, both emerging and established, as we welcome unforgettable performers to our summer stage.”
