1 week ago | highway81revisited.com | Kat Von D |Trey Anastasio |Michael Lello

Fans of Leftover Salmon who have watched the band pushing, pulling and feeding off each other on stage for the past 35 years might be surprised to learn that their studio albums have been a more isolated affair, with the musicians generally writing separately. For their newly released one, “Let’s Party About It,” the Colorado jamgrass band decided to do something about it. “Never having all written together before, it was honestly kind of intimidating,” says Vince Herman, guitarist and vocalist.

“I feel like everyone needs a redo,” says Tracy Bonham. The eclectic, classically trained musician known for her 1996 alternative rock hit “Mother Mother,” is responding to a question about “Jumping Bean,” a track first released in 2000 that is getting another life as the lead single on her brand new album, “Sky Too Wide.”“I’ve definitely had a couple redos,” she says during a recent Zoom call from her studio. “And I think that songs for me are like living creatures as well.

Kula Shaker, the psychedelic, mystical band to emerge out of the UK in the mid-1990s, was a counterbalance to the stadium-ready anthems that were dominating Britain at the time. It’s taken nearly 30 years, but frontman Crispian Mills thinks the world has caught up to the group’s ethos. “I think that what’s happened now is we’re much more sort of in tune with what’s going on in the world than we were back then,” says Mills on a Zoom call from his home in Cornwall in the southwest of England.

Photos by Bobby Nicholas IIISunflower Bean made last Thursday night’s show at The Warsaw in Brooklyn, announced as its only New York City performance of the year, count. From the tone-setting rocker opener “Champagne Taste” to a lengthy encore in which the band and support act Gift played a cathartic version of David Bowie’s “Heroes” together, the set was a proper celebration of a band with more than a decade of NYC history under its belt and a new album out that might be its best yet.

“Ileana’s Smile,” the true story of a community living in a garbage dump in Nicaragua, is certainly not light summer fare. But the documentary, framed around the life of a little girl named Ileana, does offer a sliver of hope for what can be done to help such people who have literally been tossed in the thrash.
SUNFLOWER BEAN FACES MORTALITY: 'THIS COULD END'

Since the release of their third album “Headful of Sugar,” the three members of Sunflower Bean went through changes in their lives that could have brought the band to an end. Frontwoman and bassist Julia Cumming and her longtime partner split up. Drummer Olive Faber came out as transgender and started a new band. And guitarist/vocalist Nick Kivlen moved to Los Angeles, meaning one-third of the New York City band was no longer at home.
LITTLE FEAT, NEARLY 60 YEARS ON, STILL 'STRIKES' A CHORD

That Little Feat has made a 17th album is more than a minor miracle. That the release from the nearly 60-year operation is brimming with vitality and gaining notice from the persnickety critics at the New York Times and Rolling Stone might defy explanation. The “legacy act” tag often confines artists to focus on their back catalog, but Little Feat guitarist and vocalist Fred Tackett explains there are artistic and practical reasons to put out new material.
DAISY THE GREAT: 'THE BAND IS LIKE ITS OWN PERSON'

1 month ago | highway81revisited.com | Kat Von D |Trey Anastasio |Michael Lello

Daisy the Great, the Brooklyn vocal duo comprising Kelley Dugan and Mina Walker who emerged from NYU with 2017’s “The Record Player Song” and its subsequent AJR remix, is, as expected, influenced by musical twosomes. But when the two members are really clicking, one and one make one, to borrow a lyric from The Who. “I think one thing we strive to do is be a duo that is like as iconic as a single person, like the band is like its own person,” says Walker.
FOR LaMP, IT'S A GROOVE THING

Mar 19, 2025 | highway81revisited.com | Kat Von D |Trey Anastasio |Michael Lello

As members of the Trey Anastasio Band and Joe Russo’s Almost Dead, Russ Lawton, Ray Paczkowski and Scott Metzger are used to the creature comforts of the road, like tour buses and crew members to set up their gear. But with LaMP, their instrumental trio? “We have no crew people,” says Metzger, the band’s guitarist. “It’s funny. They have a van up in Vermont, but we have so much gear and merch that there’s no room for me. So I drive myself around either in my car or in a rental.
