This week, Michaela Anne released a new song, ‘If Your Body Fails You’ a single off what she's hoping to be her ‘next full length album (stay tuned for more on that…)’ The tune marks a new stretch of time without label support, releasing music independently and the whole project lingering close to home. It’s even recording it with engineer/husband Aaron Shafer-Haiss in their backyard studio, Vacationland.

Latest release from Watchhouse, 'Rituals' is out now!
Rituals, the long-awaited new studio album from North Carolina duo Watchhouse (Andrew Marlin & Emily Frantz), is officially out now via Tiptoe Tiger Music / Thirty Tigers. Co-produced with Ryan Gustafson (The Dead Tongues), the 11-track collection marks Watchhouse’s first album of entirely new, original songs since their acclaimed 2021 self-titled release, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Bluegrass chart and earned praise from Rolling Stone, NPR Music, Mojo, American Songwriter, and more.
With Rituals, Watchhouse invites listeners into a world shaped by small moments and big transformations. The album glows with the quiet beauty of daily life — lullabies at dawn, unspoken gestures, and the grounding rhythm of routine - all while balancing a subtle darkness. The result is a gently radiant meditation on change, love, and the spaces in between.
Woven with the duo’s signature acoustic textures, Rituals blends layered arrangements and soothing vocal harmonies into an album that is as intimate as it is expansive — a sonic embrace in uncertain times.
