Single Review: “Twilight Street” – Iris Harley. Words: Sammy Stein.

Iris Harley is a singer with a remarkable voice.  From the opening lines, the listener is captivated not just by Harley’s voice but by the story being told – that of a girl denied the chance to sing and the dreams she had of singing. In her dreams, she knows where she is headed despite …

Single Review: “Blame It On Blue” – Riley Way

@riley.wayy is my one to watch for many reasons.

Single Review: “Put A Record On” – NEEV

Slowing things down a little this is a new one from Scottish born London based artist <strong>NEEV</strong> This acoustic guitar led but layered with gorgeous harmonies, the call response in this track made me smile, you could almost hear a chamber choir over this.

Single Review: “Radio Player” – Josaleigh Pollett

Salt Lake City you say? Well this is new territory for us! This is a song that calls upon analogue synths and pitch bends giving it a real 80s feel, the beat is off kilter and the sounds are ethereal – guitars both acoustic and electric provide a great backdrop on this – what I …
