Free Music Friday Best Of the Week

This week for Free Music Friday I will be highlighting some of the best sites this week to pick up free music.

First up are two great albums available from Noisetrade.com, Trent Dabbs’ “Southerner” & Ben Rector’s “Into the Morning”. Both are available for free but considering how great each of these albums are please make sure to support them by giving a tip.

Next is a sampler from American Songwriter. If you’re familiar with this magazine then you know that their samplers are always top notch. The country sampler alone is always worth checking out. This week they have released their “Muse August Sampler” which is a collection of AS’s favorite new tracks. Highlights include Beirut’s “East Harlem”, John Hiatt’s “Train to Birmingham” & our focus track this week the Leagues “Magic”. The Leagues’ lead singer, Thad Cockrell, is one of our favorite artists here at MCI. The Leagues music is a unique mixture of Robert Plant meets U2. Listen to the song “Magic” & it’s easy to hear the comparison & why this was one of our most anticipated EPs of the year. Visit AmericanSongwriter.com to hear the rest of the “Muse August Sampler” & visit LeaguesMusic.com for a full list of tour dates (including an August 26th Nashville date at the Mercy Lounge) & audio samples from their new EP.
