The Cactus Blossoms: “Hey Baby”

By: Jack Anderson

Although Minneapolis brothers Page Burkum and Jack Torrey didn’t begin singing together until they were in their thirties, The Cactus Blossoms and their handsome harmonies have already flourished a reputation that gives The Everly Brothers a run for their money. A half decade after The Cactus Blossoms released their debut LP You’re Dreaming and just two since their 2019 sophomore Easy Way, Burkum and Torrey have just announced a new full-length, One Day.

One Day drops February 11th of next year and The Cactus Blossoms have shared a little bit of its pollen early to keep our honey jar healthy, courtesy of the record’s soft-spoken, indie-folk-foot-tap lead single, “Hey Baby”!

Jobi Riccio: “Buzzkill”

Jobi Riccio is a Nashville indie Americana artist, but with her new single “Buzzkill,” she leans into a more punk style, rock-forward sound. This shift mirrors her angsty, introspective lyrics, which capture what it’s like to navigate your twenties and the emotional phases that define those years. As someone in my mid-twenties, I find this […]
