<p>Mississippi family band <strong><a href="https://annieandthecaldwells.bandcamp.com/album/can-t-lose-my-soul" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://annieandthecaldwells.bandcamp.com/album/can-t-lose-my-soul&source=gmail&ust=1745014256446000&usg=AOvVaw0zDoo16fYqtJ93f5FUVTJf">Annie & The Caldwells</a></strong> are anchored by their matriarch. Annie is not only the central figure of her own band, she’s also a member of the Staples Jr. Singers and owner of Caldwell Fashions — providing daywear and church outfits since the 1980s. Annie & The Caldwells’ debut album, Can’t Lose My (Soul), is forty years in the making and imparts the nourishing themes of spirituality, struggle, and redemption.. Check out their powerful, disco-tinged gospel on “<strong>I Made It</strong>.” </p>

<p>Iconic outfit <strong><a href="https://www.kcrw.com/music/shows/morning-becomes-eclectic/tom-ze" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.kcrw.com/music/shows/morning-becomes-eclectic/tom-ze&source=gmail&ust=1744409953384000&usg=AOvVaw3M9_LoxyFRxbUJg4y0Xsk2">Tortoise</a></strong> have influenced a kaleidoscopic range of artists throughout their forty year career. Arguably, their legacy outweighs their output — they’ve released only seven albums since 1990. Needless to say, we are very happy to share their first new music in almost ten years — the melodic and crunchy “<strong>Oganesson</strong>” forecasts more good things to come. </p>

<p>Morning Becomes Eclectic recently enjoyed the company of Queen of New Orleans bounce Big Freedia for a <a href="https://www.kcrw.com/music/shows/morning-becomes-eclectic/big-freedia-new-orleans-bounce-gospel-new-album-take-my-hand" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.kcrw.com/music/shows/morning-becomes-eclectic/big-freedia-new-orleans-bounce-gospel-new-album-take-my-hand&source=gmail&ust=1744409953384000&usg=AOvVaw3YDTpF8hNId2p0Q2tcWIhX">Guest Selector</a> set during SXSW 2025. We even had the pleasure of WORLD PREMIERING “Take My Hand.” The track features a sample from famed gospel preacher & pastor Dr. C.J. Johnson for a hands in the air, floor stomping, gospel-dance track. It’s a prelude to a new album due in June, which BF told us is “a vibrant and uplifting non-denominational record that blends bounce, gospel, soul, and R&B in a way that only Big Freedia can.” </p>
