This year's 'Straight Line Was a Lie' is The Beths first release for Anti Records . Lead vocalist, songwriter, and guitarist Elizabeth Stokes is a wise, perceptive lyricist and on this album she revisits raw feelings from a different angle. Against the backdrop of The Beths' jangling beauty, there's some sorrow but matter-of-fact satisfaction too. "I know I'm a collaboration," Stokes sings on "Metal," which she and Jonathan Pearce played in FUV's Studio A. "Bacteria, carbon and light."

It was a delight to have The Beths back at WFUV, the first time since 2019. Stokes and Pearce played a trio of the album's songs in Studio A: "No Joy" (this clip), "Mosquitos," and "Metal." Watch all three videos at WFUV.org here:

And if you can, definitely catch The Beths play Brooklyn Paramount tomorrow, Friday, 12/5!

Back in February, almost decade since the release of their Grammy-winning sophomore smash 'Sound & Color,' Alabama Shakes announced their return as a trio: singer and guitarist Brittany Howard, guitarist Heath Fogg, and bassist Zac Cockrell. Ahead of the band's big NYC gig at Forest Hills Stadium in September, the band also released a new single, "Another Life."

For a new FUV Live session, featuring live songs drawn from Alabama Shakes' concerts this year at Red Rocks Amphitheatre and Forest Hills Stadium, Brittany Howard spoke to host Sam Sumpter just prior to that Queens gig about the road to reunion and the celebratory vibe that makes an Alabama Shakes show so special.

Listen now at WFUV.org or via the "FUV Live Sessions" podcast at Spotify, Amazon Podcasts, and Apple Podcasts. More:
