When I first heard the Athens, Alabama natives on KEXP’s song of the day they straight took my breath away. It was like they owned me in that moment, willfully succumbing to the wondrous southern charm that is the Alabama Shakes. If you’ve heard them, you already know what I’m talking…

The Legend of the Dimestore Darlings
By Rob Shapiro, producer and spirited adviser
The early 1990s, particularly in New York City, was a magical collective explosion—like London in the mid-’60s, or Minneapolis in ’84. Music was adventurous and good. Fashion, technology, art, and…
The Alabama Shakes: Right At Home with Newfound... →
You can’t ignore the sense of place in the music of the Alabama Shakes. It’s right there in the quartet’s name.
