Eddie Skuller Makes Joyous Music From “Headlines”

By Daniel Warren Hill

Co-written by Eddie Skuller, Pamela Lankas and Alex Tea who also produced the track, “Headlines” is a commentary on current events with a gravity centered on reality while the Reggae and Lounge vibes create a positive and uplifting environment to remind listeners not to be swept up by the headlines, but to focus on joy and global community.

I read the headlines / I bemoan the news / The demented views and antics / So I focus on the truth 

Then later:

I’m not worried about us / The Force of hope is real enough When we combine / It’s strength we find / And it sustains us

Skuller has been performing in the New York area since the early 1980s when his first band, Moot (in which Lankas was a member), debuted at CBGB’s. “Headlines” is Skuller’s debut track of 2022, preceded by “Music” and “Rock On” in 2021. He is donating his proceeds from downloads and streams of the new single “Headlines” on Bandcamp to World Central Kitchen #ChefsForUkraine: https://wck.org/

Listen to the track below, and then keep on listening for good causes and great vibes. You can find this track on all available platforms, as well as on the Alchemical Records Multigenre playlist on Spotify.

Foghat’s Roger Earl Refuses to Slow His Ride

By this point in his life, Foghat founding drummer Roger Earl has visited quite a few doctors. But what may be surprising is that the percussionist, 77, is quick to point out that many of the medical professionals who have worked on him also enjoy rocking out.

“Nearly all the doctors and surgeons I know, they all play something: trumpet, sax, violin, guitar,” Earl said recently. “There’s not too many drummers that are surgeons, there’s probably a good reason for that!”

Earl half-jokingly invites his surgeon-rockers to join him and the other members of Foghat onstage at the Fillmore in Silver Spring March 9, where they will be headlining the Rock and Roll for Children Foundation benefit for the Children’s Inn at NIH. Earl, the only original member of Foghat still in the band, will be banging the skins behind guitarist Bryan Bassett and other members Scott Holt and Rodney O’Quinn. “Slow Ride,” the band’s 1975 megahit, is all but assured to be on the setlist, along with tunes from Foghat’s most recent record, “Sonic Mojo.”
