It’s been a while since I posted a new music Monday. It’s one thing I’ve not quite back on top of after my little hiatus over Christmas and New Year. It’s now the first bank holiday Monday of the year and I’ve just crawled out of bed, time to get some decent tracks on I think. Continue reading “Wet Dreams”
I found Annabel Jones online yesterday while I struggled for hours to update the blog design. As an aside, what do you all think of the new site? Ms Jones has been around for a little but has recently signed to Atlantic Records which maybe explains the increased online presence. Continue reading “IOU”
So the New Year has got off to a busy and stressful start. What do I need to get me through this month, kick ass tunes preferably from some strong females. Enter Tkay Maidza, singer and rapper from Australia. Continue reading “Ghost”
I featured Young War away back in October 2013. Normally I don’t like to feature the same band twice but it’s Christmas, so we’ll make an exception. There’s so many cheesey songs that are mercilessly overplayed as soon as December begins, I thought I try to find some new ones for you. Then I stumbled across this on Soundcloud, any song the mentions Christmas, presents … Continue reading Winter In The City
Declan McKenna is another of those incredibly talented and incredibly young singer songwriters that just make me incredibly jealous! This little track came to my attention via Breaking More Waves blog as he is named as one to watch for 2016. I have to agree as he’s had a pretty successful 2015, after winning the Glastonbury emerging talent contest and then being signed to Colombia Records. … Continue reading Paracetamol
I’ve been hearing this track in Xfm for a few weeks and finally paid attention to what it was. I really need a digital radio where it comes up in your screen. Elle King is daughter of comedian Rob Schneider and model London King. Her music is a mix of county, soul and blues. Just enough blues and soul to take that country edge off. … Continue reading Ex’s and Oh’s
I discovered Jones on Later with Jools Holland where she sung the most beautiful stripped back version of this track. Raised in London by her, not surprisingly, soul loving mum. Despite their electro beats there’s a definite hint of soul in her smooth tracks. Indulge is quite an apt name as this song is quite an indulgence, the whole EP is in fact. Perfect soundtrack … Continue reading Indulge
Quick one today as yesterday I was busy flying to London and today I’m busy with a very exciting little project. I’ll share soon I promise. This is the perfect little mellow track to ease us into the week. Frances is a 21year old, yes another youngster, from Berkshire. Her EP Let It Out is released on 16th October and I just love this track. … Continue reading I Care
Eve Belle is a 17year old singer/songwriter from Donegal. She released this track back in May but it only came to my attention last Sunday. Late to the party with this one, though in my defence the video is new. What a beautiful track to come across on a lazy Sunday morning though. Obviously I instantly had a wee search on Apple Music and to … Continue reading Too Young to Feel this Old
I don’t care what anyone says about guitar music, I love it just as much as I did in 1996, yup I’m that old. This track could slot into that Brit Pop scene quite easily. Though it is has that modern made in your basement sound to it. Black Honey are one of those mysterious bands that no one really knew anything about. They didn’t … Continue reading Corrine
