The latest video from Sons of Fathers presents a pretty atypical love story alongside a driving, rootsy song.

The latest music video from Steve Earle tells a touching, human story that perfectly complements the accompanying song.

With the Forecastle 2013 lineup announcement just around the corner, now is the perfect time to revisit one of the more unique moments from last year. My Morning Jacket headlined the fest in 2012, its 10th edition. They were planning to sound check early in the morning, when the skies opened up and the rain came a’falling. Once it let up, Jim, Patrick, Tom, Bo and Carl gathered the small crowd who braved the storm for a very special rendition of What a Wonderful Man.

Jim James just premiered a video for the lead track from his solo album, Regions of Light and Sound of God.

Or at least that’s maybe one way of looking at it.

New Prince! New Prince! Need we say more?
