Pop essentials and a little bit more

Chloe Tang – ‘Take Care’

August 2, 2019

We’ve written about Chloe Tang a few times – her previous releases ‘Lame’, and ‘Hype’, are sultry, piano-based bouncers, and her new single ‘Take Care’ is no less buoyant.

Jay Som – ‘Tenderness’

August 2, 2019

Recording as Jay Som since 2015, Melina Duterte creates a world of shy, swirling, intimate sound with her music. Her latest release, ‘Tenderness’, is released from her latest album, ‘Anak Ko’.

Nadette Releases Latest EP ‘Nadette Vol 1’

July 24, 2019

British/Maltese Nadette shares her soulful vocals on her new EP, ‘Nadette Vol1’, which was released on 11 July.

Sarah Sunday – ‘Mental Zoo’

July 24, 2019

You may not have heard of Sarah Sunday but pretty soon she’ll be a name you’ll never forget. Her latest single, ‘Mental Zoo’, has more than a touch of Avril Lavigne to it, and this should come as no surprise, as Sarah counts the Canadian songstress as among her influences, which also include such legends as Debbie Harry, and other iconic female vocalists.

King Ropes – ‘California Stars’

July 21, 2019

Describing themselves as, a “psychedelic, hard country garage roots rock band”, King Ropes’ new single, ‘California Stars’ is a ponderous pounding pysch track that has strong overtones of Tom Waits. It’s from their new album, ‘Gravity And Friction’, which is set for release on July 26.

Nicholas Altobelli – ‘Red, White, And Blues’

July 19, 2019

With a chorus that makes us think of what could be, if only we found a way of coming together, Nicholas Altobelli’s new single, ‘Red, White, And Blues’ is out today. It’s the new single from his ‘Vertigo’ LP, which is set for release on August 2.

Eddy Smith And The 507 Chat With EP About Music, Instruments, And ‘A Little Too Late’ At Cornbury

July 12, 2019

In the last of our Cornbury interviews, we bring you our chat with Eddy Smith and the 507, who are not, despite their name, made up of 508 members, but one of them is actually named Eddy. Now based in London, they come from as far as Kent, the US, Ireland, and Surrey (or is it Sussex?). Lisa sat down and had a chat with the band.

FATi – ‘QUEEN’ And ‘L.O.V.E. Love’

July 11, 2019

You can trace just about every part of contemporary American music, from the rhythms, the harmonies, the compositional structure – even the scales – to the folk music of Western Africa. Case in point FATi, with her new singles, ‘QUEEN’, and L.O.V.E. Love’.

Fire Follows – ‘Loaded Gun’

July 11, 2019

Chris Watt, who records under the pseudonym of Fire Follows, has certainly had a lot of trauma in his life. In 2008, while singing with his previous group, Author, he noticed problems with his voice, and subsequent doctor and specialist appointments confirmed it was a paralysed vocal cord.

Biting Elbows Give Us What We Want With ‘Heartache’ And ‘Control’

July 11, 2019

It’s an interesting name, Biting Elbows. We thought that last year when we introduced the Moscow-based band to our readers: our opinion hasn’t changed. We’re pleased to bring two more songs from the indie band whose music is notable for its dark undertones – ‘Heartache’, and ‘Control’. Naturally, there’s videos as well.

In A Lifetime: We Ask Johnny Lappin About His Life, Career, And Music Publishing
