“At Night in Dreams”

From White Denim’s Corsicana Lemonade

DOWNTOWN

Liner notes: Indie-rock fizz meets blues-rock swagger on the trio’s fifth studio outing, an exhilarating wave of noise evoking T. Rex’s glam epics.

Behind the music: Singer James Petralli is the son of former pro baseball player Geno Petralli. Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy mixed the entire album and produced two tracks.

Check it out if you like: Spirited eclectics like the White Stripes, Foxygen, and Kurt Vile.

BEFORE YOU CLICK AWAY!

December is make or break for us. A full one-third of our annual fundraising comes in this month alone. A strong December means our newsroom is on the beat and reporting at full strength. A weak one means budget cuts and hard choices ahead.

The December 31 deadline is closing in fast. To reach our $400,000 goal, we need readers who’ve never given before to join the ranks of MoJo donors. And we need our steadfast supporters to give again today—any amount.

Managing an independent, nonprofit newsroom is staggeringly hard. There’s no cushion in our budget—no backup revenue, no corporate safety net. We can’t afford to fall short, and we can’t rely on corporations or deep-pocketed interests to fund the fierce, investigative journalism Mother Jones exists to do.

That’s why we need you right now. Please chip in to help close the gap.
