Since I usually don’t post on the weekends, it would be wise to give you more music on Fridays. Lucky for us, Mansions on the Moon just released their new s/t album, and it’s thoroughly impressive. They use their softer acoustic skills more this time around (which we knew they already had from solo Ted… Continue reading New Mansions on the Moon album

Coasts: “Wash Away”
The fourth (and fifth) Coasts song I get to post on Knox Road? My am I lucky. More of the standard Coasts euphoria, which they’re somehow able to provide on every song they make. Not an easy feat, my friends! Bonus: The 4 song EP, with the title track above, is out via Tidal Recordings on… Continue reading Coasts: “Wash Away”
Brave Shores: “Dancing Underwater”
Start your weekend with this rollicking new jam from Jay and Stefanie McCarrol, the brother/sister duo Brave Shores, off their new EP out October 28. Bonus:
Faux Fix
This is how music discovery should work. I hear a great track by a well-established artist and it happens to feature a relative unknown with whom I begin to fall in love. Such a love story happened yesterday, when I posted Son Lux’s “No Fate Awaits Me” featuring vocals by Faux Fix. Well by golly!… Continue reading Faux Fix

So many commas. This track, “No Fate Awaits Me,” featuring Faux Fix,… Continue reading [MP3] Son Lux: “No Fate Awaits Me” (feat. Faux Fix)
Wilder Maker: “Hope Springs”
He’s growing tired. His energy isn’t where it used to be. He thinks about what he was doing 2 years ago; 5 years ago; 10 years ago. Times were happier then, werent they? But even then, he used to think about how much better things were going to be in 10 years, 5 years, 2… Continue reading Wilder Maker: “Hope Springs”

Charlotte McCafferty: “The Messenger”
Charlotte McCafferty is a student at the University of Maryland (maybe now you’ll understand the Knox Road name if you didn’t already) and whenever I get a chance to highlight our alma mater’s talent, I don’t hesitate. McCafferty is working on a solo album of original songs, and from the sound of her first single,… Continue reading Charlotte McCafferty: “The Messenger”
