So many singles, so little time. Here are three songs to stream right away:
The Streaming Age has its benefits _ one of the best being that the reduced cost of releasing new music encourages artists to experiment. Sheryl Crow and Jason Isbell have developed a great one with the new single "Everything Is Broken" (Valory), a cover of the underappreciated Bob Dylan classic that they have revved up into a howling, rocking delight, as they trade cooing vocals and fiery guitar riffs.
Matt Nathanson's folkie take on Chance the Rapper's "Same Drugs" (Acrobat) is even more surprising. With Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump providing some sweet harmonies, Nathanson captures the mix of melancholy and relief that Chance cultivated on the original, but replacing the gospel vibe with a looser, simpler musical backdrop lets the emotions flow a little easier. It's an unexpected entry from Nathanson, who has an entire EP of Chicago-themed covers planned.
