Walk with me to the actual Sinner's Shrine in #Tucson AZ. Before recording Sinner's Shrine and El Tiradito with @calexicoband.bsky.social musicians in WaveLab Studio, Tucson.

Its low key setting in an ordinary Tucson street hides its extremely bloody history.

Dare you walk with Dean to El Tiradito (the actual Sinner's Shrine) in Tucson AZ?!

We head into the weekend with something current and powerful from Billy Bragg "City of Heroes"
Something for the weekend: Billy Bragg “City of Heroes”
Well that's it from us for this week. If you're an AUK supporter your new playlist will be with you at 5pm and it could be you who wins the pair of tickets for the Cambridge Folk Festival this year. My colleague Dean reminded me to point out that today is the first Bandcamp Friday of the year which as it waives its revenue share policy with all proceeds going to the musicians, we urge you to support.

Local café owner to donate Christmas Eve takings to charity
The owner of Bliss House Café, Meadowbank, Fadi Bacheet, is spreading festive cheer this Christmas by pledging an entire day’s takings on 24 December to NHS Lothian Charity’s Secret Santa Appeal. The appeal helps to bring comfort and joy to patients, visitors, and NHS staff who spend the festive season in hospital, away from family and away from home. Fadi’s decision reflects his appreciation for NHS care.

Americana UK's obituary for americana lynchpin @raulmal01 of @MavericksMusic who created a lot of great music during his 60 years of life
The Song Remains: Raul Malo (1965 – 2025)
Farewell to the greatest voice in modern popular music Raul Malo has died, at the ridiculously young age of 60.  The son of Cuban emigrants who could sing virtually anything with ease and conviction will no longer grace us with his heavenly tones, having succumbed to severe complications from colon cancer that he publicly disclosed in June 2024.  So it is perhaps fortunate that he leaves an extensive and important body of work, both with The Mavericks and solo.
