Released 21st October 2022. SK says: "The seasoned duo of Andy Platts and Shawn Lee deliver their strongest album yet as Nichol Thomson's ebullient horn lines elevate YGSF's fourth long-player into the stratosphere. "Tip Of The Flame" nods to Ned Doheny's dancefloor ready acoustic funk while "Rolling Back" recalls Hall and Oates at their hitmaking peak, and on "Sierra Nights" Platts conjures Don Quixote through the prism of America-esque west coast AOR." Andy Platts and Shawn Lee need no intr...

Released 21st October 2022. SK says: "'The Car' builds on the loungey sea change that was 2018's acclaimed 'Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino' with sweeping strings, wah-wah guitar and a slippery and nuanced vocal performance from Alex Turner which matches the elliptical imagery of his lyrics, calling to mind Scott Walker's forays into chansons, Richard Hawley's lovesick croon and Turner's own soundtracky side projects." The Car is the seventh studio album from Arctic Monkeys. Featuring ten new...

Released 28th October 2022. The third and most seasoned Drugdealer album, Hiding In Plain Sight, almost didn't happen at all. Frustrated and insecure with his own singing voice prior to the pandemic, Drugdealer founder and primary songwriter Michael Collins was nearly ready to throw in the towel. Due to a frequent impulse to hand over the microphone to friends and collaborators like Weyes Blood, Jackson MacIntosh, and his trusty musical companion Sasha Winn, Collins became increasingly unsure...

Released 14th October 2022. The Big Moon are back. The last time you heard them it was welcoming the release of their dazzling second album, Walking Like We Do, back in January 2020, when life was very different to how it is now. That was a coming-of-age record, bold songs for Saturday nights and sad songs for Sunday mornings. So much has changed, continues to change, and promises to change some more. And in this world of constant change, we yearn for the familiarity of a constant. Thankfully...

Released 14th October 2022. On 14 October 2022, wildly creative free-form songwriter Rachael Dadd is to release her brand new studio album ‘Kaleidoscope’ via Memphis Industries and follows 2019’s 'Flux' which was released to much acclaim and which she was touring when the pandemic struck.  Like so many people disconnected from their communities and struggling through the lockdowns, Rachael Dadd turned inwards, seeking escape through music and connection through song writing, and her hope is t...

Expected Release 14th October 2022. SK says: "A match made in alt-country heaven. Waxahatchee's 'Saint Cloud' had already signalled Katie Crutchfield embracing her Southern roots, while Jess Williamson has steadily carved out an acclaimed career in cosmic Amerciana culminating in the excellent 'Sorceress'. Together, they pay tribute to the surprisingly progressive pre-2000s country scene, trading lead vocals and harmonies on a set of gorgeous, wistful originals with a supporting cast that inc...

Released 7th October 2022. SK says: "Having brought their considerable chemistry to bear on a set of traditional song on their self-titled debut, the trio of Anaïs Mitchell, Josh Kaufman, and Eric D. Johnson instead embark on an album of originals that could be unearthed folk artefacts. All three individuals have kept busy- Mitchell with her own brilliant eponymous album, Johnson with a retrospective of his Fruit Bats and Kaufman as a sought-after producer for everyone from Craig Finn to Tayl...

Released 19th August 2022 SK says: "Despite its inspiration being the loss of several close friends and collaborators, 'Heartmind' is one of McCombs's most breezy and playful outings to date. "Karaoke" comically riffs on love song titles, while "New Earth" is a kind of post-apocalyptic bossa that could've come from the pen of the Conchords. That's not to say that 'Heartmind' doesn't have its knottier moments- the pleasingly loose and rambling "Unproud Warrior" sounds like something Lonnie Hol...

Released 26th August 2022 Rising from the ashes of Palma Violets, Gently Tender first begun as a reminder for Sam Fryer to treat himself more softly. Joined by his former bandmates Will and Pete, along with The Big Moon’s Celia Archer and guitarist Adam Brown, the band’s long-awaited debut album ‘Take Hold Of Your Promise!’ has been five years in the making, and marks a return to something slow and careful, rooted, and soulful.

Released 19th August 2022. SK says: "Such is the strength of Darnielle's authorial voice (it's hard to imagine any other songwriter coming up with a track like 'Hostages' here) that the Mountain Goats can draw on different themes, environments and producers to create distinct works without losing their essence. Here, Bully's Alicia Bognanno produces and sits in on guitar with the band, now a road-hardened quartet, bringing crackling alt-rock energy to a set inspired by action movies and reven...
