How come no one’s shouting about a new Orcutt record on the horizon? After a masterful duo with Chris Corsano last year, Bill has put the finishing touches on an album that’s…

This one’s been swirling in the brain for a while now, the debut LP from Frank LoCrasto (Fruit Bats, Cass McCombs). The keyboardist has been a key session player for years and,…
