Grizzly Bear singer and guitarist Daniel Rossen will release his debut solo EP, Silent Hour/Golden Mile, on March 20th. The album came together as a way for Rossen to figure out how to make music that resonated with him after spending significant amounts of time on tour. "When you spend so much time touring around, you can lose perspective on what you're trying to do. All the sudden, I had no idea what to do or what to make or anything," he explains. "These songs were a way for me to figure that out again, getting my legs back."

Daniel Rossen's guitar-driven "Silent Song" is available to stream exclusively on Rolling Stone.

“Satisfied”

Tom Waits | 2011

Only the genius of Tom Waits could combine the subject of mortality, a reoccurring theme in his work, with wordplay that name checks both Mick and Keith, whom he calls "Mr. Jagger" and "Mr. Richards," and the title of their magnum opus, "Satisfaction." And to show just how cool Waits really is, he even got Mr. Richards to play along, one of nine guest appearances the guitarist has made on three Waits albums. "This growling roadhouse stomp is a late-breaking response to the Stones' greatest hit," Rolling Stone said of the track.
