N MEDICINE AT MIDNIGHT
Foo Fighters
February 5
On Foo Fighters’ 10th studio album, lead
singer-songwriter Dave Grohl has said the
band set out to make a fun, upbeat record
akin to David Bowie’s “Let’s Dance,” and
their single “Shame Shame” lines up with
that assertion. Grohl mentioned that “Shame
Shame” is unlike anything Foo Fighters have
ever done before and that the song allowed
them to “move into another territory” with
their sound. It’s percussive and almost funky,
but it’s also slightly tinged with melancholy,
especially on a string-laden chorus that
sounds very much like the Foo Fighters fans
have always known.
N LIFE ROLLS ON
Florida Georgia Line
February 12
After being dogged by both a COVID-19
diagnosis and break-up rumors late last
year, Florida Georgia Line has announced
their fifth studio album, “Life Rolls On.”
The duo of Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley
produced the album with Corey Crowder. “I
think this personally is just a big, celebratory
chapter,” Hubbard, who weathered the
coronavirus in November, said in a statement.
“We’ve come a long way since 2012 when
we dropped our first album. It’s wild to think
about the journey we’ve been on – the things
we’ve got to do, the places music has taken
us. We’re celebrating life and the good times,
the ups and the downs, and the journey it
took us to get where we’re at.”
N STILL WOMAN ENOUGH
Loretta Lynn
March 19
Looking back at a career which spans six
decades, icon Loretta Lynn has announced
her new album “Still Woman Enough.”
Marking her 50th studio release, the
collection celebrates women in country music
and includes new compositions along with
reinterpretations from Lynn’s catalog. The
album also features appearances from Margo
Price, Tanya Tucker, Reba McEntire and
Carrie Underwood. “I am just so thankful to
have some of my friends join me on my new
album. We girl singers gotta stick together,”
Lynn said in a statement. “It’s amazing how
much has happened in the 50 years since
‘Coal Miner’s Daughter’ first came out and I’m
extremely grateful to be given a part to play
in the history of American music.”
