Press Play At Home: Watch Jake Wesley Rogers Throw Himself Into A Kinetic Performance Of "Middle Of Love"

In the newest episode of Press Play At Home, watch singer/songwriter Jake Wesley Rogers practically radiate electricity in his galvanizing performance of "Middle Of Love"

Music may only consist of 12 notes and a piano may only have 88 keys, but that's only half the story. It's the human behind the instrument offering a piece of themselves—that really counts, and makes us return to this form of expression time and time again.

Jake Wesley Rogers proves this axiom in the below performance of "Middle of Love." Despite the simple presentation—a keyboardist and a keyboard—watch as he launches his whole musculature into it and croon the lyrics with palpable gravity. Even alone, he sounds like an orchestra.

In the newest episode of Press Play At Home, watch singer/songwriter Charlotte Day Wilson perform a muted version of her song, "I Can Only Whisper"
Morgan Enos
GRAMMYs
Aug 19, 2021 - 1:47 pm

Learning to write a half-decent song is one thing; learning to sing and play guitar simultaneously presents another series of tripwires to avoid.

Budding musicians know the struggle: How do I keep a consistent tempo? How do I not go too loud or too breathy? How do I weed out bum notes and excessive string scrapes?

To those ends, Charlotte Day Wilson's below performance is a masterclass in control. She negotiates the relatively elaborate chord progression with ease; her phrasing is fluid and natural. Plus, it doesn't hurt that "I Can Only Whisper," from her 2021 album ALPHA, is a hell of a song.

Watch Charlotte Day Wilson's "I Can Only Whisper"

In the newest episode of Press Play At Home, check out the Canadian R&B wunderkind's spare rendition of the tune, which features instrumental greats BADBADNOTGOOD on the studio version.

Watch the stirring clip above and click here to enjoy more episodes of Press Play At Home.

Last time GRAMMY.com heard from G. Love, he was joyously paying homage to Brittany Howard under a clear blue sky for the ReImagined At Home series.

And while any cover from the Special Sauce leader and the Juice frontman is bound to be interesting, the world originally fell in love with G. Love for his original tunes, like the ones on G. Love and Special Sauce (1994), Philadelphonic (1999) and The Juice (2020).

Watch G. Love Perform Homespun "She's The Rock"

In the newest episode of Press Play At Home, watch a chilled-out G. Love strum and sing his rootsy 2020 track "She's the Rock," off The Juice, with a Gretsch and a harmonica on a similar patch of terra firma.

Check out G. Love's infectious performance above and enjoy more episodes of Press Play At Home.

GRAMMYs
Jul 15, 2021 - 8:29 am

Hardcore hip-hop bangers are alive and well in 2021. They're just not from where—or whom—you might expect.

Meet Jesswar, a rising, Australia-born rapper who spent her formative years in Fiji. To hear her tell it, some of the seething rage in her artistry comes from being "mistreated" as a woman of color in music. "I was really tired of being overlooked," she told NME this year. "I was pretty angry."

Watch Jesswar Perform Ominous Track "XXL"

In the newest episode of Press Play At Home, watch Jesswar channel that dark energy into a potent performance of "XXL," off her 2021 TROPIXX EP, that's both viscerally thrilling and hair-raisingly evocative.

Check out Jesswar’s performance above and click here to enjoy more episodes of Press Play At Home.

Ever hear the axiom "Music is a universal language"? Sure, it's a cliche, but for good reason.

Take Monsieur Periné, a Colombian band who sings in Spanish, French, English, and Portugese. But you don't need to know any of those languages to feel the welcoming vibe of "Mundo Paralelo."

In the latest episode of Press Play At Home, let the Bogotán ensemble—led by Catalina García—sweep you away with a performance of "Mundo Paralelo" that exudes radiance and group solidarity.

Watch Monsieur Periné Perform "Mundo Paralelo"

"[It's about] the simple things in life," García told Rolling Stone about the song upon its release. "Walking on the grass barefoot, feeling the rain, and having fun with your dog."

"Mundo Paralelo," a collaboration with Pedro Capó released last May, is a follow-up to Monsieur Periné's 2018 album Encanto Tropical, which was nominated for Best Latin Rock, Urban Or Alternative Album at the 61st GRAMMY Awards in 2019. (The group won for Best New Artist at the 16th Latin GRAMMYs in 2015.)

Check out Monsieur Periné's lighthearted performance of "Mundo Paralelo" above, and click here to enjoy more episodes of Press Play At Home.
