Ghost Hounds have released their new single, “Something Wicked,” the latest preview of the band’s upcoming album, Justified, due out August 21, 2026, via Maple House Records.

Built around soaring vocals, driving guitars and Southern rock influences, “Something Wicked” showcases another side of the band’s roots-rock sound.

Discussing the new song, vocalist SAVNT stated, “‘Something Wicked’ is a story about the ‘end of days,’ and a true anthemic Southern rock song that begs the question, ‘Are these the times the old folks warned us about?’” He stated, adding, “I remember Thomas bringing ‘Something Wicked’ to Tyler and me. I could almost feel his excitement as he walked over to us with pages of lyrics. He started playing a riff on the guitar, and Tyler caught onto it almost immediately. As soon as Tyler and Thomas got into a groove, I was able to find the melody of the words on that paper within the phrases of their guitars. Organically, the song came to life, and in a way, it showed us what it wanted to be. At one point, Thomas told Tyler to keep playing as he ran over to the music stand and crossed off certain words and added in new ones, and by the end of that session, we knew we had something special.”

The band also announced a run of live dates, including an August 19 performance at Mercury Lounge in New York, with additional shows scheduled in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Dewey Beach, Delaware. More dates are expected to be announced.

Justified features a collection of songs centered on themes of betrayal, revenge, hope and redemption while blending rock, soul, country and blues-rock. The album includes the previously released title track, “Justified,” along with “Sinner’s Prayer,” “Chasing Yesterday,” “Here No More,” “War Inside” and “Pale Horse.” It also features covers of The Rolling Stones’ “Gimme Shelter,” Freddie King’s “Going Down” and the gospel standard “Amazing Grace.”

Ghost Hounds feature vocalist SAVNT alongside founder, producer and guitarist Thomas Tull, guitarist Tyler Chiarelli, fiddle player Kristin Weber, keyboardist Joe Munroe, bassist Bennett Miller and drummer Sydney Driver.

“The way Thomas writes, he knows what the guy in his song had for breakfast that morning. He’s really building a character,” SAVNT says.

The band has continued to expand its profile in recent years with appearances at the Grand Ole Opry, The Kelly Clarkson Show and AmericanaFest. Ghost Hounds have also opened for The Rolling Stones, ZZ Top, Bob Seger and Garth Brooks, while their song “Last Train to Nowhere” was featured in the television series Special Ops: Lioness.

Their upcoming album follows a string of releases that includes Roses Are Black, A Little Calamity, You Broke Me, First Last Time, and 2025’s Almost Home, which featured guest appearances from Lainey Wilson and Patty Griffin.

“We are so proud of Justified. We were able to draw from so many of our influences and put forth a record that we feel really sounds like a culmination of all the parts becoming the whole,” lead guitarist Tyler Chiarelli says. “At the center of that is SAVNT. His vocals were able to traverse so much ground, and it was so amazing to witness him find new dimensions of his voice in the process. From blues to country to rock, he brought all of the songs to life.”

“We don’t really care about rules or genres. When we write, record, or perform, the songs could be country, Americana, soul, or blues-rock,” SAVNT says. “It’s all of our influences, mixed together. And there’s nothing better than that.”

Steve Cropper & The Midnight Hour have released “Tandoori Chicken,” the latest single from their upcoming album Watching The Tide, due out August 28 via Provogue / Artone Label Group.

The instrumental track opens Watching The Tide and serves as a funky introduction to the album while also paying tribute to Booker T. & The M.G.’s 1962 classic “Green Onions.” The release follows the previously issued singles “Ticket First” and “Until Now.”

Named after the guitarist’s iconic co-write “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay,” Watching The Tide features Cropper collaborating with songwriter and producer Jon Tiven and Midnight Hour vocalist Roger C. Reale. The album was recorded at Nashville’s historic RCA Studio C with a lineup that includes Ana Grosh on vocals, Nioshi Jackson on drums, engineer Eddie Gore on keyboards and percussion, along with guest appearances from Eric Clapton, Billy Gibbons, Brian May and Ronnie Wood.

Tiven explained how “Tandoori Chicken” came together after an Indian lunch with Cropper.

“About a month before Steve passed, we went out for an Indian lunch. Steve really loaded up on this tandoori chicken. We had this one kicking around as a song, but we never really thought the lyrics were very good. So then I started thinking, ‘Well, if I put a sitar on it, maybe it’ll hold together as an instrumental’, because Steve is playing some amazing guitar on it. Then I said, ‘Steve, is it okay if we call it Tandoori Chicken?’ A big smile came to his face, and he goes, ‘That’s my favourite’. And y’know, he’s got a lot of history with food-oriented song titles. So it was a nice way to tie it all together.”

The new single follows “Until Now,” which features Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood on slide guitar. Tiven recalled how quickly Wood agreed to contribute.

“Ronnie Wood got back to me about 10 minutes after I sent off my email: ‘Oh, this looks like a lot of fun. I’ll jump in.’”

The album’s first single, “Ticket First,” also features a guest appearance from Eric Clapton. Tiven reflected on the recording session and Clapton’s contribution.

“I told Eric, ‘Man, you just turned that song inside-out – I think we’re gonna have to give you a writer’s credit,” recalls Tiven of the legendary British guitarist’s transcendent solo. “And Eric said, ‘Well, anything to get my name next to Steve Cropper’s…’”
