Wednesday morning standouts:
Feel Like Going Home
- See You Later, I'm Gone-Whitney (The subtle arrangement of this vocals-and-guitar track, released in May, makes its lyrics sound all the more sincere.)
- Rockets & Flowers-The Bamboos (This new release has a pleasant '70s R&B feel that could segue with Greenflow's "I Got'cha'.")
- Beyond That Moon-Madison Cunningham (One of 2026's more heartfelt singer-songwriter tracks. Cunningham's vocals acknowledge how painful the end of a relationship is when it's not your desired outcome.)
- Human Mind-Mavis Staples (Lyrically and vocally, "Human Mind" works on two levels; it speaks to the resilience one needs when grappling with a personal setback or loss and also to the coping mechanisms people need as a collective during unjust times.)
- Blue Moon Waltz-Roger Netherton (This tasteful fiddle piece could segue with Gloria Attoun's "Barefoot Waltz." I'd be curious to hear Nickel Creek cover this.)
- Salt Spring-John Reischman (A sunny, steady mandolin melody.)
