Harts has been featured on the pages of this blog before for his track All Too Real. Finally, solo artist Harts, has released his debut EP. The five track EP includes All Too Real but also includes a track I’ve played all week, ‘The Music’. The EP is out a little while now and it [...]

What can I say about this tune.. it’s absolutely amazing. London Grammar are a three piece who produce damn good songs with a dance undercurrent. Dot Major, Dan Rothman and Hannah Reid whose vocals soar in an old school style, proper songs with dancey beats. Reid’s voice immediately makes London Grammar recognizable. Wasting My Young [...]

This week sees the release of John Murry‘s album ‘The Graceless Age’ which is a gem, check out the stream below. I’m taking track 2, California, and making it my Tune of the Week. The slightly jerky video was filmed in San Francisco, I once went to a fortune teller on one of the featured [...]

We all know Huey Morgan, slick front man of Fun Lovin’ Criminals, BBC Radio 2 & 6 DJ, TV Dog trainer extraordinaire.. He’s left FLC behind for an album with ‘Huey Morgan and The New Yorkers’. He’s still backed up a group of friends, including FLC drummer Frank Benbini. So what’s different? This is a [...]

I’m really liking this track from Oxford quintet Spring Offensive. No Assets is rhythmically driven, slightly jerky and has a beautifully understated bass line, it cleverly tells the perils of being broke and making plans for the future. No Assets also has a cool video which was made by 12 chest mounted iPhone cameras filming [...]

It’s a Bank Holiday, so even though this is a Monday, it’s still the weekend. This song has been going through my head all week, not sure why though.

This was a late contender for This Week’s Tune of the Week. I heard it on Paul Lester’s show on Amazing Radio and I have been listening to it since. Xander The Great are a duo from London, namely Xander Taha and Ed Sanders.That’s all I know about these guys. This can easily cross from [...]

Linnea Olsson is a Swedish musician who is set to release her debut album, ‘Ah!’, this week on Control Freak Kitten Records. Linnea has been a been a member of both Peter Gabriel and Ane Brun’s touring bands. Her brand of cello led chamber pop is really interesting and there’s something about her that reminds [...]

This was going to be last week’s Tune of the week before Miles Kane swooped in with his new track ‘Give In’. That hasn’t diminished my love for this track though. Peace are a four piece from Birmingham who made the BBC Sound of 2013 final list alongside Kodaline and Little Green Cars amongst others. [...]
