7 Artists That Will Never Go Out Of Fashion

March 10, 2022

If you’re looking for some pitch-perfect sounds, take a look at seven of the greatest musical talents of all time.

AJ Smith – ‘Billy Joel’

July 7, 2020

AJ Smith isn’t trying to be Billy Joel in his song of the same name. It’s not even a tribute to the man himself, really, but rather, in the tradition of Eric Church’s ‘Springsteen’, or Taylor Swift’s ‘Tim McGraw’, it’s a song that alludes to a famous singer with an equally distinctive sound.

Eli Tidmore – ‘After Hours’

June 19, 2019

An independent singer/songwriter from East Texas, Eli Tidmore has already been making a name for himself with his debut album, ‘Chameleon’, released to wide acclaim in 2017. Now he returns with ‘After Hours’, the first single from his forthcoming second album, which is set for release later on this year.

John Paciga – ‘The F-Word’

February 21, 2019

Back in November we wrote about John Paciga’s single, ‘The F-Word’. It wasn’t the first time we’ve talked about the prodigious talent from New Jersey, and this definitely won’t be our last.

All Hugo Valentine Wants Is A Little Love With New Single Out Today

February 5, 2019

Hugo Valentine is back with his new single, ‘All I Want’, released today, February 5. The classically trained pianist and vocalist is in fine form and all he wants…is a little love.

Scott Gray – ‘Raincoats’

October 26, 2018

Scott Gray makes his home in Nashville Tennessee, but his jazz-pop songs emphasise narrative and echo New York voices, including the likes of Leonard Cohen, Laura Nyro, Billy Joel, and Norah Jones. He also draws from the older New York too, such as musical theatre, film soundtracks, and the smokey after-hours sound of the speakeasy.

Tom Odell Is The Piano Man In More Ways Than One With New Concept Album ‘Jubilee Road’

October 14, 2018

Written while he was living in a house in East London, and encorporating real life stories from the time – with the street name changed of course, to protect the privacy of his former neighbours – Tom Odell’s ‘Jubilee Road’ is ten tracks of intense honesty and personal insight.

Jordan Siwek Is A Ray Of Positivity With Debut EP ‘Sun Inside You’

August 15, 2018

Climate change, conflict and humanitarian threats frequent 2018’s headlines, and the world sulks in a seemingly constant state of disagreement. Amongst the madness, Jordan Siwek is a ray of positivity.

Matteo Scher – ‘Something Good’

June 13, 2017

With a sound something like Tom Odell, Billy Joel, James Bay, and Elton John all rolled into one, New York City singer songwriter Matteo Scher certainly promises ‘Something Good’ with his new EP, set for release on 15 June.

RaH Takes Us For A Ride With New Single ‘Black Lambo’ Featuring DJ Khaled

October 24, 2016

Originally from Detroit, but now living in LA, R&B crooner RaH has been making a name for himself both within and outside the music industry.

Introducing: The Very Flamboyant King Charles

December 29, 2014

King CharlesIs the music world missing big male personas these days? There doesn’t seem to be any more Adam Ants or Ziggy Stardusts – is there an equivalent these days?
