Artist: Mariachi El Bronx “Wildfires”
Album: III
Set in the Southern California desert, Mariachi El Bronx’s new video for their track “Wildfires” is a beautifully shot example of the band’s LA-meets-mariachi aesthetic on their latest album, III. After bringing their LA attitude to a run of US headlining dates this spring, Mariachi El Bronx are back on the road this summer with Gogol Bordello and Flogging Molly. Check out the tune below.

Artist: Stone Foundation “Beverley”
Album: A Life Unlimited
Off of their forthcoming album A Life Unlimited, which is due out on August 9, “Beverley” from British soul outfit Stone Foundation, harkens back to Paul Weller’s peak days with The Style Council, Acid Jazz Galliano and into James Taylor Quartet territory. With perfect harmonies, glowing organs, infectious brass and a laid back funky summer swing moving throughout, the track is instantly recognizable and brimming with soulful nostalgia.
