On “Pt. Roadknight”, Leah Senior leans into the hazy fog of late-sixties, early-seventies folk rock, recorded with a natural analogue texture that lends these songs a human touch. It turns its inward gaze outward, offering her reflections with a clarity of purpose. As she reminds us in ‘Talk To Me,’ there is a fine line between focus and withdrawal, and this album walks it with rare grace.

Radie Peat of Lankum and ØXN releases her debut solo single, “Still I Love Him”, via Rough Trade. John Francis Flynn found the song in the Irish Traditional Music Archives and wrote a new melody; Peat reshaped it around her contralto, holding elation and devastation at once. Robbie Mailler Howat directs the video.

London cellist midori jaeger shares “hunted”, the second single from her new EP “(Re)planted”, out 26th August. Built around the piano rather than her pizzicato cello, it trades rhythmic push for something smoother and more rippling. “(Re)planted” follows this year’s “(Un)planted”, turning her groove-led writing softer and more expansive as she transmutes a life of uprooting and replanting into song.

Elanor Moss shares the video for “The Way That it Feels,” the second single from her debut album “The Knife, The Needle,” out August 21st on Merge Records. Sung over birdsong and classical guitar, it’s the last song she wrote for the record, and the accompanying video was shot on 16mm film in the Greek Peloponnese by Matthew Thorne.
