Gold Opaque Vinyl. You can piece together the life of William Fitzsimmons with the songs he chose to record for Covers, Vol. 1 & 2. For the Illinois-based singer, songwriter, and producer, some tunes recollect joyful moments at home as a kid, and others recall his high school days. A handful of tracks address heartbreak head-on without apology, while a few reflect his inclination to embrace youthful wonder and creativity. No matter what, his voice carries these words straight from the heart. InchI just wanted to do songs that meant a lot to me for varying reasons,Inch he says. InchI share some of the songs with other people. Some of the songs remind me of my childhood. Some of the songs are low-key messages to individuals from my past-and they're not necessarily positive. Some of the songs are just pure joy. Ultimately, they are all songs I love and respect from artists I think are incredible.Inch Music means a lot to everyone, but it means everything to William... He was born to blind musician parents with an incredible collection of instruments and records. In their house, Inchmusic was this level playing field we could experience together because you don't need to be able to see to enjoy it.Inch Dad played the organ and favored baroque and classical, while mom loved folk and sang hymns in a choir. The family would call out favorite chords and bond through sound. Even though dad Inchwished he did more serious music,Inch William jammed along to everyone from Metallica and The Steve Miller Band to The Beatles.

Following 2005's Until When We Are Ghosts, he generated hundreds of million streams across fan favorite albums such as Gold In The Shadow [2011], Lions [2014], Pittsburgh [2015], Mission Bell [2018], Ready Th

For nearly three decades, WHY? have thrived in subverting expectations. Across seven unpredictable and adventurous studio albums, the band led by Cincinnati songwriter Yoni Wolf has stretched the fringes of psychedelic pop, hip-hop, and electronic music. No matter the genre experiments and thematic departures, their discography is remarkably consistent, anchored by Wolf's disarming lyrical transparency. His writing is provocative, self-lacerating, and always considered, coming from a place of blunt emotional openness. The Well I Fell Into, the eighth full-length from WHY?, is Wolf at his most cohesive and poignant. An autopsy of heartbreak, the album charts the ups and downs of a devastating breakup while trading bitterness for healing. Self-released on Waterlines, Wolf's new tag that follows in the footsteps of Anticon, the trailblazing artist-run collective he co-founded, it's 14 tracks stand as the band's prettiest and most immediate work yet.
