G. Love and Brittany Howard are rarely mentioned in the same breath, but they've contributed to American roots music in similar ways. While G. Love did so via his Philly junkyard-rap-blues aesthetic, Howard carved her place in the canon as part of the rock-and-soul band, Alabama Shakes.

Love and Howard now converge in the latest episode of ReImagined At Home. Under a clear blue sky, G. Love joyfully strums and wails Howard's hit, "Stay High," which won the 2020 GRAMMY for Best Rock Song. (It was also nominated for Best Rock Performance; in total, Howard has won five GRAMMYs and counts 16 total nominations.)

Want to know which contemporary hits might stand the test of time? While nobody can foretell the future of the pop landscape, GRAMMY.com's ReImagined At Home performance series is as good a metric as any.

And if Keara Graves' stirring rendition of H.E.R.'s "Focus" is any indication, the four-time GRAMMY-winning singer/songwriter born Gabriella Wilson has a bright future in the pages of the American songbook.

Watch Keara Graves Perform H.E.R.'s "Focus"

In the latest episode of ReImagined At Home, Graves makes "Focus" her own—and then some. Accompanied by an electric guitarist, who plays a hypnotic two-chord progression, Graves fully inhabits H.E.R.'s composition in front of a vibrant, illustrated background.

Every year, Norah Jones' calling-card single "Don't Know Why" feels more like a modern standard. 

The Jesse Harris-written and twice-GRAMMY-winning song still feels fresh on her 2002 debut album, Come Away With Me, and on her recent live album, 'Til We Meet Again, she and her accompanists pull at its groove like taffy.

Press Play At Home: Ashe Finds Universality In The Small Things In "Me Without You" Performance

In the latest episode of Press Play At Home, Ashe performs a pindrop version of “Me With You,” her ballad about taking stock of her surroundings and moving on after a breakup

Call it the John Prine approach: Make the verses tangible and specific and the chorus universal. Singer/songwriter Ashe begins her song “Me Without You” with everyday images: red velvet wallpaper, cigarette smoke, a passenger’s seat.

But something is amiss. The smoke is breathed by other lovers. The car drives into a wall. When the chorus picks up, it’s not hopeless or helpless at such developments. “I can be me without you/I don't feel lost without you,” Ashe sings, flipping the song’s theme from self-pity to self-actualization.

In the latest episode of Press Play At Home, watch Ashe perform an intimate version of “Me Without You,” alone at an electric piano, letting her poetic words bloom on their own merits.
