Luke Reynolds

Even the most well-known people have struggled to succeed! This follow-up to Fantastic Failures offers up a second dose of fascinating stories featuring flops that turned into triumphs.

This disc is dedicated to the memory of a very fine composer and good friend, Peter Reynolds. His unexpected death in 2016 was felt far and wide amongst his friends and colleagues, and has left a gap not only in the world of contemporary classical music, and in the academic realms of music education, but also in many peoples' lives. This exceptionally unassuming man was a very fine composer and an avid supporter of other musicians, both as a teacher and as a champion of performances and recordings of new and neglected works.

"Undercurrent" is the fourth studio album by American singer–songwriter Sarah Jarosz. A gifted instrumentalist, singularly expressive vocalist and songwriter of rare insight, Jarosz anchors her new record with a haunting quartet of songs written and performed solo 'Early Morning Light,' 'Everything to Hide,' 'Take Another Turn' and 'Jacqueline.' She expands her palate from the swampy defiance of 'House of Mercy' to the nostalgic 'Back of My Mind.' Undercurrent captures the process of personal evolution and discovery as well as the inspirational nature of change. The album and one song were nominated for three Grammy Awards, winning two.

Guster's ninth studio LP, Ooh La La reveals a band fully in touch with thevoracious creative energy that first inspired their formation.

With additional production fromRon Aniello (Bruce Springsteen), Rich Costey (Death Cab for Cutie, OfMonsters and Men), and Primarily mixed by Peter Katis (The National, KurtVile), the result endlessly radiates an undeniable warmth, even as it's songsdelve into the more daunting aspects of living in modern times.
