This week in Indie Basement: reviews of new albums from BC Camplight, RVG, Adventure Time soundtrackers Lake, Katie Harkin (Sky Larkin, Sleater-Kinney), and more.

Onetime Sky Larkin bandleader Katie Harkin has spend the last decade as one of the most in-demand side musicians, having played in the touring lineups of Sleater-Kinney, Wild Beasts, Flock of Dimes, and Courtney Barnett & Kurt Vile's band. But all the while she's been working on her own music...

Bill Withers' music has touched just about everyone, so it's no surprise that there's been an outpouring of tributes since the world learned he died this morning. You can read tributes from Raekwon, Kacey Musgraves, Sturgill Simpson, Lin Manuel Miranda, Yo La Tengo, Billy Dee Williams, and more.

Listen to new songs by Ride (remixes), Local H, Days N Daze, The Rentals, Anna Burch, Johanna Warren, Nap Eyes, Justin Timberlake/Anderson .Paak, and more.

Listen to new songs by Grimes, TOPS, Chassol, Wake, The Bombpops, Harkin, PnB Rock/Pop Smoke, Tom Misch/Yussef Dayes, and more.

While new album The Center Won't Hold has been divisive, live the songs fit in perfectly with Sleater-Kinney's older material and made for a dynamite show.

It includes covers by Julien Baker, Craig Finn, Ben Gibbard, Aaron Dessner & CHVRCHES' Lauren Mayberry, Manchester Orchestra, The Twilight Sad, Daughter, and more.

The tribute album to Frightened Rabbit's 'The Midnight Organ Fight' comes out in July and also features covers by Craig Finn, Ben Gibbard, The Twilight Sad, and more.
