Foxglove: “Sunday Highs”

By: Jack Anderson

Craving some musical soul food for this weekend? Treating yourself to some Foxglove ought to be a good fit!

Since 2022 this Austin six-piece has scattered their musical remedies through fields of funk, soul, and R&B alongside forays into indie and hard rock. And as heard on last October’s Ephemeral Daydreams EP, Foxglove forgoes the generic formulas in favor of authentic, moving passion pieces.

They’ll be taking the stage as part of the Happen Twice Showcase 8PM tomorrow night at Güero’s Taco Bar, where their handful of recorded tunes will be joined by Foxglove’s latest newcomer: “Sunday Highs”. There are a lot of moving parts to this single; how it starts sure ain’t how it ends. But the complex song structure of “Sunday Highs” alone speaks volumes to Foxglove’s versatility, not to mention how well each member’s talents play off one another in this sprawling five-minute emotional journey.

Ram Vela & the Easy Targets: “Life Is Rigged”

Everyone benefits from the empowerment of self efficacy. And nobody wants to scrape by each day facing a sealed fate. Those truths must have at least subconsciously fueled the landmark success of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, which endures as a surprisingly hopeful narrative despite its status as a relentless “hard R” sci-fi action flick. But […]

Lindsey Rose Black: “One Of Your Girls” [PREMIERE]

As we noted yesterday, it shows real strength to unearth the passion of a certified classic by revitalizing it with a version well outside its initial genre. So we do have another cover today, but this one belongs much more to a contemporary catalogue. Which is frankly a great strategy for appealing to…shall we say…less […]

Ramiro Pinheiro & Rodrigo Balduino: “Moon River”

No matter how much of an “instant classic” it may have been when it first dropped, after a half century of air play, most people feel like they’ve heard certain songs ad nauseam. That is until you hear a fresh take on it. And we’re not just talking about slapping some drums or a new […]

Breathing Space: “WASTING”

Whether it’s the inevitable return from a much-needed vacation, spying some inspiring light post-wrestling with depression, or just the routine changing of the guard between Sunday scaries and Monday blues, the addled and anxious of us can always appreciate an extra minute or two to block everything else out and just breathe, hopefully with a […]
