Today's Top Tune

Today’s Top Tune: Mamas Gun ‘Joy’ 

UK five-piece Mamas Gun deliver a rich, groove-driven sound rooted in classic soul traditions, channeling influences from Marvin Gaye, Bill Withers, and Sly Stone. Anchored by tight, Motown-inspired rhythm sections and lush instrumentation, the band balances warmth and musical precision with emotional depth. At the center is Andy Platts’ honeyed, expressive voice, bringing a modern touch to a timeless sound shaped by decades of soul, funk, and R&B. That’s what you’ll hear on “Joy.”

Today's Top Tune: Maisy Owen ‘On My Way Down’

Nashville native Maisy Owen has been immersed in music her entire life, raised in a musical family where songcraft was second nature. Drawing on the moody intimacy of Nick Drake, the folk finesse of Bert Jansch, and the hazy dream-pop glow of Mazzy Star, she’s carving out a sound all her own. Her debut album arrives this spring, but for now, here’s a first taste with “On My Way Down.”
