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.
