If you think you know what a banjo sounds like, think again. Multi-instrumentalist and composer Stephen Godsall’s ‘Tingling Skin, Buzzing Wires’ presents the banjo in different ways, accompanied by flugelhorn, tenor sax, Wurlitzer piano, Hammond organ, piccolo, and more. Using combinations of instruments helps Godsall demonstrate the banjo’s potential and how we should perhaps look …
AMITY – City Of Stars Amity · City of Stars We kick off the faves with an artist I’ve known for a while, this is their first time on the faves and I’m really excited for them. I actually met AMITY last year at Boogaloo Radio when I was going there for an interview, and …
Hello Cory, how are you? I’m good, thanks! I’ve had had quite a bit of time off the road over the last couple of months, so I’ve been chilling and being creative in my studio everyday when my kids are at school. Congratulations on the release of “Lost In The Wonder” how does it feel …
@riley.wayy is my one to watch for many reasons. First and foremost she’s a singer songwriter who is able to pack a punch with her songs, and this is illustrated beautifully in this song, it’s an acoustic led track with all the right ingredients – a catchy melody, a middle 8 and an outro that will …

Meanwhile by The Happy Somethings We are at that weird time of the year when we don’t know what day it is. The train lines are up the spout because of engineering works for bank holidays. The traffic going out of town Is horrendous. The celebrations from Christmas only have the rubbish ones left and …
Oh I cheered when <strong>Sunflower Thieves</strong> showed up in the inbox last week….They are back! Already taken is acoustic guitar led with the addition of an analog drum pattern passed through a filter – all this puts the vocals at the front, and the lyrics simply ask how do you let go of something that’s …
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. The traditional folk story telling is here, you are given the …
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 …
