Allison Russell, Brittany Howard, Maren Morris, Brandi Carlile, Emmylou Harris, Brittney Spencer, Amanda Shires, and many others have formed a collective of country and Americana artists called the Tennessee Freedom Singers in support of Senate candidate Gloria Johnson. Together, they have released a new song called “Tennessee Rise” inspired by movements for social justice and equality. Stream it below.
Recorded at Sound Emporium Studio in Nashville, “Tennessee Rise” was masterminded by Russell after she found inspiration in the actions of Johnson, one of the Tennessee Three who was nearly expelled from the state’s House after participating in a gun control demonstration. Other artists who contributed to the song include Erin Rae, Katie Pruitt, Langhorne Slim, and Tré Burt, but the list goes on.
“‘Tennessee Rise’ is an anthem born out of resistance from the rise of extremist forces, the unwillingness to accept the rollback of protections for historically marginalized groups,...

Wet Leg, Jason Isbell, Tegan and Sara, and more have contributed to Noise for Now: Vol. 1, an upcoming compilation album benefitting abortion access. It arrives on November 24th as part of Record Store Day 2023.
Noise for Now is also the name of the non-profit that helmed the compilation, and their work has become even more pertinent since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June 2022. The organization launched their eponymous record label to release their first album, which also features exclusive songs from Sleater-Kinney, My Morning Jacket, Fleet Foxes, Cat Power, and more.
Many of these songs were also featured on Good Music to Ensure Safe Abortion Access to All, another benefit compilation from 2022 that was only available as a Bandcamp download for one day. Noise for Now: Vol. 1, however, will be a vinyl-only release, pressed on clear wax and packaged with a “Liberate Abortion” print by Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon.

What is a folk festival to do after becoming a global news story? That was the central question for this year’s Newport Folk Festival, which over the past half-decade has drawn increased attention with a slew of surprise guests, world premieres, and special appearances — from Dolly Parton to Chaka Khan, and culminating in last year’s revelatory return of Joni Mitchell after her several-decade absence from the stage.
By the end of this year’s festival, the answer to that question seemed clear: 2023’s Newport was a necessary restart and redirection,...

The latest offering from Kevin Morby’s This Is a Photograph is the beautiful music video for “Bittersweet, Tn,” the singer’s solemn duet with Tennessee singer-songwriter Erin Rae. Filmed outside of Nashville, the video finds Rae and Morby separately wandering a variety of landscapes.
Watching the bucolic video, there would be no way to know that the video had been interrupted by a nearby shooting scare.
“I generally don’t like making music videos, but I was really enjoying this one,” Morby tells Rolling Stone. “Suddenly, though, a helicopter started circling over us…...
