Nashville's Indianola Kick Up Some Dust With EVERYDAY I GOT THE BLUES

Longtime fixtures of the Nashville live music scene, Indianola are ready to hit the road and bring their brand of American Gothic troubadour rock'n'roll to the national stage. Last month, the band, led by Owen Beverly (Nicole Atkins, Oh Land) announced their debut full-length, Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye, with a visual glimpse into their dark inspiration with the "Too Good to Be True" video. Today, Indianola kicks things up a notch with "Everyday I Got the Blues," an upbeat, sad-swagger ode to old fashioned, whiskey-soaked rock'n'roll. The video continues in the vein of the previous release, using chopped visuals from 1973 campy horror b-movie Messiah of Evil. Such is the vibe of Indianola and the rest of Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye - an homage to the nostalgic, swooning camp of mid-century southern-bred radio hits with a fast-paced, deliberate, electric 2019 update.

Indianola is kicking off the Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye run with a month on the road with Shovels & Rope, Frank Turner, and Ruby Boots. See below for details - Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye is out May 10.

"There's a duality present in a lot of these songs," says Indianola's Owen Beverly. "There's a push and a pull that's constantly going on. The music is modern and retro and optimistic and bleak and carefree and apocalyptic all at once."

Those juxtapositions lie at the heart of 'Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye,' Beverly's thrilling debut LP under the Indianola moniker. Recorded at Shovels & Rope's studio in Charleston, South Carolina, the collection stitches together a broad range of genres and eras, gleefully toying with decades of music history in order to create a sonic collage from an alternate timeline, one in which snarling garage rock guitars flare up alongside 60's girl group melodies and greasers and punks party with velvet-voiced crooners. Beverly mines the past like a found footage artist, seizing on unexpected moments from long-forgotten productions in order to splice them together in a wholly new context. The result is utterly engrossing and infectious, a pop culture Frankenstein that sounds like Roy Orbison fronting The Sonics or Buddy Holly soundtracking a B horror flick.

'Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye' follows Indianola's 2017 debut EP, 'Zero,' which Paste praised as "wise beyond its years" and the Charleston City Paper hailed for its "rock 'n' roll fervor." Beverly was named a Southwest Airlines Artist On The Rise, and the collection earned him festival performances from Luck Reunion to Wildwood Revival alongside dates with Josh Ritter, Butch Walker, Langhorne Slim, Matthew Logan Vasquez, Nicole Atkins, and more. The following year, Indianola appeared as a special guest on Shovels & Rope's 'Busted Jukebox Volume 2,' collaborating on a reimagining of The Hollies' "The Air That I Breathe" that prompted the husband-and-wife duo to describe Beverly as "one of the finest singers and writers out there today" in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.
