S6 – Ep 26 | 2023 Album Spotlights & Artists' Second (or Fifth) Life

Let Us Know Your Thoughts!Craig and Kevin jump forward to 2023 for this week's spotlights. Craig picks Altitude, Marty Stuart & His Fabulous Superlatives' first new album in five years — a cosmic-country trip through dreamers, drifters, and desert-flavored twang that stakes Stuart's claim as one of country's great living traditionalists. Kevin counters with Stephen Marley's Old Soul, a stripped-down, acoustic-leaning reggae record born out of pandemic-era jam sessions and stacked with guest turns from Eric Clapton, Bob Weir, and his own Marley brothers.From there, the conversation opens up into a bigger question: what happens when an artist gets a second (or fifth) life? The guys talk through acts who've built new audiences around their current work rather than trading on nostalgia for their commercial peak — running the gamut from Pete Yorn and Rodney Crowell to L.A. Guns and Stryper, and what it takes for a band or artist to actually earn that kind of reinvention instead of just coasting on it.📱 Subscribe and/or follow us on your favorite streaming platform.  📩 Know an artist who's found a surprising second life?
