On today’s AMM (click on the MP3, please), listen carefully just after the introduction. You’ll hear a really cool dude informing the musicians that recording is now in session. That cool dude is Cruz. He’s 4 years old. And the musician who answered him is  Carrie Rodriguez – who happens to be Cruz’s mom.

And the performance of the track “Z” is from Rodriguez’s series A Song For You, in which she and husband/collaborator Luke Jacobs play songs and share their performances on video via social media.

This week, Rodriguez and Jacobs will join friends Bruce Robison & Kelly Willis for a song swap on the live stream series Virtually Green Note…in the round, an online musical event curated by London-based venue the Green Note. Don’t miss out on the show, Wednesday May 27th, at 2 p.m. (Central) on the Green Note’s YouTube channel and Facebook page. Don’t miss out.

Gotcha vibe right here to kick off your Memorial Day weekend. It’s all of the winning with Alesia Lani, who’s doing a fabulous Friday night live stream performance at 7 p.m. (Central) tonight, May 22nd, on her Facebook and Instagram. And give yourself plenty of room for dancing. It’s an evening of live music, conversation and a Q&A session with the Austin-based soul artist and recent Project ATX6 alum.

You can show your support by pre-ordering her new track “What You Know About It,” and by visiting her website for awesome merch.
