This one starts off at a fast pace, the acoustic guitar kicks off things with a deceptively slow strum then the drums set the engine running! This is a driven track and the lyrics match the the pace –“I’m not really here right now,My mind’s taking me somewhere else,It doesn’t feel the same right now,It …
Well! This is pretty spectacular! We have a solid blues jam here, it starts off with a glissando up the piano, underlying it is an organ, giving you that expectation that something cool’s about to happen, the cymbal swells kind of give you a spoiler alter to that. Add to that the double bass… The …
This one is a pulse racer! The piano sets the tempo, and just runs! It’s a great little jazz instrumental, using bass, drums, and piano, the whole track is off kilter it seems the time signature flits between a few bars I gave up counting because quite frankly it had me grooving. It messes with …
This hits the ground running as a country record, the brushes are out on the drums going at a fair old tempo! The guitars twang, it feels like this song should have been recorded in a prestigious recording in Nashville, but no this is straight out of the UK and it just really does hit …
Sunflower Thieves are back with a cracker of a song – big acoustic guitars, drums that cut through the mix, especially during the pre chorus with toms that really sound pleasing to the ear. Add to this a cello, and ethereal vocals and you have The Sunflower Thieves down to a tee. This song is …
Congratulations on the release of “Minute Man,” how does it feel to have the song out? It feels good! It’s been a fun one to promote so far because it definitely pushed me to get out of my comfort zone and regular motions! What’s the story behind the song? I had been listening to a …
Garlen Lo needs to actually release an album of songs with these types songs. Wholesome, humorous homemade songs that are just written to make you smile. He’s gone and done it again with this song, packed full of charm – if he’s writing this for someone in real life she needs to say yes! Hold …
This is a jazzy number that’s got me relaxed on a very packed train to work! The piano starts off the proceedings in the lower register, and then it’s joined by Nicoya’s gorgeous voice, she brings so much soul to this. The adlibs before she hits the verse tell you that she’s about to do …
This is an acoustic number, in 3/4 with triplets being played on toms… it draws you in so quickly! The thing that caught my ear was the falsetto that dominates the song – it’s on a slow burn, but then you realise the full impact of the song. The bit that got me was at …
It’s been 30 years since @takethat released their third album “Nobody Else” and it shows how far things have come. In that time, Robbie Williams left, the band split up some time after that, all had successful solo careers and even reunited – something no one ever saw coming – first without Robbie and then …
