Irish alt-country artist Podge Lane embarks on a UK mini-tour this week. His musical DNA is wide-ranging and unconventionally quirky – an under-the-counter homebrew of ‘DIY meets alt-country meets Anti-Folk’.

Mary Lattimore and Walt McClements share ‘Nest of Earrings’, a warm and hypnotic sonic vignette from their forthcoming album Rain on the Road.

Kinbote, the alias of Glasgow-based electronic producer Matt Gibb, shares his new video ‘Daily Vlogger’, about an obsessed fan…taken from his new album Hemisphere. Plus, details of his launch gig at Glasgow’s Glad Cafe.

Myriam Gendron announces her new album, Mayday, and shares her new single and video, “Long Way Home,” which features fellow guitarist Marisa Anderson, drummer Jim White, and Montreal bassist Cédric Dind-Lavoie.

With Sister Moon, Andrea von Kampen illustrates, with style and grace, her concern for humanity and our connection to nature while also illuminating a way forward.

Villagers reveals his directorial debut video for “You Lucky One”, the second single from the forthcoming ‘That Golden Time’. The imagery is reminiscent of some of Francis Bacon’s artwork, who, like O’Brien’s, was inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche’s Beyond Good and Evil.

Ac Sapphire is an artist ready and able to express herself through music in a wholly free and unbounded way, and December 32nd is a sensational album. Without a hint of hyperbole, something seriously good is going on here.

Watch the recent Tiny Desk Concert by Amelia Baker, aka Cinder Well – “This is folk music with a widescreen vision and a gothic flourish.” Read our interview and don’t miss her tour of Ireland this month.

James Elkington and Nathan Salsburg announce their third duo album, All Gist. Listen to their lead single, a transmutation of Neneh Cherry’s monumental ‘Buffalo Stance’. The musical restraint and melodic playfulness of these two singular guitarists shines through as a warm sense of empathetic connection.
