Congratulations on the release of Ways Of The World, how does it feel? It’s always bittersweet. I love the process of writing and seeing how the songs evolve in the studio and working with the band. But I love what came out of the sessions, and the songs remain important to me. Its origin story is quite …
This is a new one from Manny Norte and Ayanna, and it slaps. This is based around an afrobeat groove, and it’s smooth, you can tell they cooked it up for the summer because it gets you dancing immedately even if your’e not in the mood. What caught my attention was the Neo soul chord …
It’s strange to think that it’s 20 years since this came out. About a year later, I had it as my ringtone, but we’ll come back to that shortly. Gnarles Barkley was a pairing between Danger Mouse and CeeLo Green, and it was fabulous they actually went to number one with this track for 9 …
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 …
Chinwe is back, and I’m so glad! This is a track that exudes power from the moment it starts. It’s atmospheric, the drums are chest pounding with two hits on the snare and off tempo flow. There’s a warble to the sound too, which is so pleasing to the ear, the bass is deep and …

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 …

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 …
