White Horses This is a piano led number, the second track in sequence on the EP, I’m liking Art Block’s vocals on this, he starts out low, then the chorus comes in and he opens up fully, it’s showing off his range. His voice is very distinctive, and he’s not afraid to show it. The …
Thirteen Weeks – With Sun I’ll be honest, I struggled with whether I wanted to review this one, as the subject matter is that raw. And everyone that I know that’s heard this song has had the same reaction. I don’t think I’d have been able to do it justice as a reviewer as my …
Congratulations on the release of “Too Sly To Die”, how does it feel? It feels great to finally have it out there for people to listen to. It’s been a long time in the making. We are happy with the song , the sound and the video so it’s three out of three …
The intro to this caught my ear straight away, the big drum fill made me sit up for sure! This is a mix of indie rock and traditional Irish music. How do I know? Well, there’s an accordion in there, acoustic guitar, whistle, bass as usual, drums, I’m also hearing a banjo…. All that good …

The melody is very much in keeping with their retro sound, but they add some interesting twists from the future too. “Welcome to …
Maya’s back with a beautiful acoustic ballad that shows off her songwriting skills as well as her voice… The song starts off with acoustic Maya’s voice over some acoustic guitar which is finger picked – sounds gorgeous, love the progression in the opening by the way. It really catches the ear. The harmonies in …
This song is gorgeous. The piano part is full of lovely chords… but it’s not this that catches you. It’s the chorus. The oohs and the duetted saxophone, is what caught my ear. This is how I’m introduced gently this sunny morning to the new duo Night Porter. Technically they aren’t new to me, at …

Put this on and experience the gorgeous tones of Amo Jr on ‘Emotions,’ the forward release preluding his album’ Good Quality’ to be released later this year.

This is a cool acoustic number with synths getting all atmospheric for the background, what caught my ear was the bass sound… Having reviewed a band recently that showed me the versatility of the cello, I’m getting the feeling that’s not a bass…. Why do I think this? Well, Ceiltidh Mac is a cello player, …
