Mae Krell Finds Hope in New Single, “snow”

By Jaci Jedrych

D.C.-based indie singer-songwriter Mae Krell recently released their second single, “snow.” Their first single of 2021, “are you sure?,” dealt with feelings of inadequacy and frustration over being in a rough situation.

Krell’s music is incredibly personal, and this newest single grapples with the unfamiliarity that comes with newfound happiness and getting better. They describe it as, “When you’re used to being in a negative place, anything that’s good for you feels foreign.”

Recorded during quarantine, the song features Krell’s smooth vocals and spacious live drum production. The song was written on piano rather than guitar, giving Krell the time and space to dig into deep-felt emotions in a genuine and spontaneous way.

If you’re a fan of artists like Chloe Moriondo or Beach Bunny, dive into Mae Krell’s new music. Their highly personal lyrics coupled with delicate but strong backing makes “snow” the perfect song to listen to on those hot summer nights.

This track has been added to our Alchemical Weekly Spotify Playlist. Check it out!

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.”
