I don’t usually review albums at full length, when it’s already out in the world. But I chose to review this for many reasons, the main one being the premise. Desire, is inspired by a year-long adventure through the states in a beat-up 40-year-old RV she transformed into a tiny house with an on-board …
This track starts off with a beautiful piano part, heavy on the left hand to compensate for the bass part, then Cara’s voice comes in – she brings a real soulful touch to this and it becomes more evident with the drums that come in. The drums are well crafted, giving a little stutter when …
Let there be horns! This comes in high and fast, Marie’s new single just comes in full whack! The drummer brings out the brushes, and leads the song through with stops and starts. The organ that comes in calls to mind country blues. Marie brings that soul, singing about someone living that single life but …
This is a stunning piece of soul and blues…. It starts off with an acoustic guitar in the intro but then it’s joined by Rosie’s electric guitar…. BOY can she play! WOW!!! I’ve been a fan from way back but this is taking it to another level. The chord changes are straight out of a …
Hello, Julian, how are you? Doing very well, thank you. I was travelling a lot this year, but it’s nice to be home now. Congratulations on the release of “Anthology Vol. 1.” How does it feel? Thank you. It feels a little strange. Never thought I’d get this far so soon, at least that’s how …
Grumble grumble… Liverpool…. grumble grumble… Talent from drinking the water of the river mersey. Grumble… Annoyingly good songs. Grumble. Oh hey! So…. My boys from Liverpool The Heavy North dropped their new album. And guess what? It’s bloody brilliant. This for me takes over from where their debut album left off, it’s bluesy as hell, …
Arizona brother and sister duo Dorsten are back and what a number! This song starts off with footsteps and claps slowly, along with finger picked guitars, then Sophie comes in with her signature powerhouse vocal. Careful. She will knock you off your seat. Little blonde girl with the big voice? Of course she is. This …
This song is so simple… Just an acoustic guitar and vocals, sometimes that’s all you need. Lindsey’s voice just sits comfortably over this and it may sound a little cheesy but this is the kind of song I could just imagine someone sitting in a coffee shop and performing. You can have your stadium fillers …
Carrie Grant released her album today, and this is the third track in the running order. I have not been able to progress past this one. It’s a piano based ballad, with strings and a strong backdrop of harmonies that are hinted at but it only appears once just leaving space for Carrie to do …
The guitar work on this instrumental is gorgeous! It has a bit of Americana in there, and it’s just jaunty, a real feel good tune, aided by the fact that it’s in A Major. I could imagine this going down a treat with a really sweet vocal group especially with the melody at around 0:42 …
