It’s been four months since we last spoke, how are you doing? I’m doing great thank you! Honestly just more excited than ever to finally be playing shows again and it’s looking like we’ve got quite a few things lined up for the end of the year so that’s news we all wanted. I miss …
Blog interview: Oli Rockberger
Congratulations on the pending release of “Look Up”. How does it feel now it’s complete? Thanks so much Del! It just feels really good to start getting this music out there. I always find putting out an album to be an important part for me in moving on creatively to what’s next. So I’m excited …
Single Review: “I Need A Holiday” – Alba
Alba is back with a summery track this is so chilled….starting off with an old school analogue drum machine, it’s not an 808, but it’s definitely one I need in my collection, it’s pleasing to the ear. The piano being played over the top and bass are played smoothly, this is a collaboration with someone …
Single Review: “Doesn’t Matter What They Say” – Luke White
This is the new single from Luke White, and it is an acoustic led number, guitar beautifully played by the way. The lyrics look about the effects of social media, a struggle that we have all had at one point where you have looked at someone’s profile and compared yourself to them. 21st Century problems, …
Single Review: “This Life (Dance Remix)” – Abi Mia
This is the brand new single from Abi Mia, and it brings all of the energy of a classic EDM track, nice little build up from the bassline setting the tone to the drums dropping in with a 4 on the floor beat. It’s minimal, the synth choices are inspired in my opinion! I love …
Gizelle Smith releases “Revealing”
Not many people can drop a cover of a Kate Bush song and get away with it. Kate Bush is in my mind under the listing of sacred text just for the sheer beauty of her songs. If you cover it you’d better cover it good. With this in mind, this is how Gizelle Smith …
Single Review: “My Imperfections” – RafiellaB
RafiellaB – My Imperfections This new single by singer/songwriter by RafiellaB is a jazzy little number and introspective in lyric. It deals with something that is still in my experience a bit of a taboo, and that is mental health. For me songs like this give a voice to those that are unheard and that’s …
Single Review: “Brighter Day” – Louis Baker
This is such a smooth soul record, recalling the days of Motown ie Marvin Gaye with the melody showing off Louis’s vocals really well. Shout out to the guitarist on this track, he sounds like he studied at the feet of Funk Brothers Eddie Willis, Joe Messina and Robert White with his blues licks and …
Single Review: Geiste – Twig
I am very familiar with GEISTE having interviewed her, and it was a joy to see this song among the Songbird HQ inbox as well as in my email. I’m a fan. So let’s talk “Twig.” Atmospheric intro. Synths laying the foundation for what you’d think is a ballad, then Geiste’s vocals coming in you’d …
Blog interview: Feed Your Wolves
Hello Andy how are you? Hi, I’m great thanks and thank you for this opportunity to talk to you. Congratulations on the release of “Hurricane”, how did it feel? It felt great! Hurricane came out in December 2020, and it honestly felt like such an achievement to finally release it. I had originally planned for a …
