This Just In

Videos of the Day – week of 5/20/19

5/20 – The Raconteurs have released a new video for their album Help Us Stranger, out 6/21

5/21 – not to be outdone (wait, who’s outdoing who again?), The Black Keys also put out a new video last week (we previously posted it on the Corner Facebook page).  Their new album is out a week after The Raconteurs

5/22 – as heard Monday on the News at Noon, the indie duo Cari Cari likens their sound to “Lana Del Rey meets Queens of the Stone Age”…they describe this video as “a short documentary about that gig we booked on Mars!”

5/23 – absolutely loving this new track from Nashville’s Them Vibes with Maggie Rose!  And the throwback video certainly matches the throwback sound! We gotta make another batch of Jeff’s Funky Train Corner t-shirts just for this band!
