  • A new exhibition at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts offers a rare glimpse into the archives of the late songwriter Lou Reed.
  • Before Sam Phillips made noir-pop records like Fan Dance, she made impeccably attired, slightly high-strung art-pop (see Martinis and Bikinis) that happily walked in the shadow of The Beatles. And before that, she was Leslie Phillips, purveyor of compelling Christian pop.
  • The Akron, Ohio, duo prefers its music sloppy and primitive. They record in a basement, and use strategic pauses to make their two-instrument band sound bigger. Guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney talk with Steve Inskeep before their set at Washington, D.C.'s 9:30 Club.
  • Garchik's album started as a socially-distanced session which was then mixed — sometimes seamlessly, sometimes brazenly. It's music for an era of frequent disruption — and prized moments of calm.
  • Countless trends have come and gone, but the popularity of The Indigo Girls has barely waned since the late '80s. It helps that the duo's folk music is just as heavily influenced by rock and world music as it is by the likes of Joni Mitchell, but consistency has also played a significant role in The Indigo Girls' longevity.
  • British soul singer Omar isn't well known in the United States. But with the support of influential fans such as Stevie Wonder, he now is trying to break into the U.S. market with a new release, Sing (If You Want It).
  • Simon is one of music's most venerated icons: His career started 50 years ago, when he and Art Garfunkel and began writing pop songs tinged with folk, rock and world music. As a solo act, Simon has found critical and commercial success with the likes of Graceland and the recent Surprise.
  • Petra Haden and her occasional cohorts in The Sellouts make wonderfully unclassifiable music: Their music is so varied that one category can't suffice. Haden mixes classical, jazz, blues, rock, folk and pop, often performing some unusual combination a cappella.
