Sylvan Esso announced Free Love coming this fall and teased us with the song "Ferris Wheel". Will Butler from Arcade Fire returned after five years with "Surrender" from a new solo work called Generations, and LP shared the song "The One You That Love" along with a live stream concert this weekend. It's always a treat to the debut a song by a Chicago artist so it is especially cool for this week's Big Beat Chicago Artist of the Week, The Flat Five, to give the honor of spinning "Drip A Drop."The entire playlist is below and online and you can check out playlists to past Big Beats here.
If you head out crate diving at local, independent, or family-owned music stores, wear a mask and let me know what you find! Connect with me on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. My handle on all three of 'em is RyanArnoldRocks.
