Tōth (Alex Toth of Rubblebucket) has announced his new LP, And The Voice Said, out February 27, 2026. Co-produced by Caroline Rose and featuring Kimbra, the record is about “surviving yourself.” Tōth calls the music “equal parts prayer and punchline.” He shared the infectious new single, “Not Broken,” accompanied by a joyous documentary-style video filmed on Coney Island.

Multi-award-winning Irish duo Ye Vagabonds announce their fourth album, ‘All Tied Together’, releasing Jan 30th, 2026, via River Lea. Recorded live in Galway with producer Philip Weinrobe (Big Thief), the intimate new record is previewed by the lead single ‘On Sitric Road’, available now. The band will headline London’s Roundhouse in June 2026.

Goblin Band’s A Loaf of Wax is a stirring and often spectacular live recording. The quartet can whip up a frenzied sandstorm of sound and transition to delicate sensitivity with consummate ease. They capture the kinetic energy and shared joy of folk music, a medium that thrives not only on shared space and collaboration, but also on shared feeling and companionship. Goblin Band are the best of all possible companions.

Bill Callahan announces My Days of 58, his eighth album and shares lead single, “The Man I’m Supposed To Be”. He applies the “living, breathing energies” of his live shows to the studio, sharpening his “slice-of-life portraiture”. The album, featuring his core touring band, embraces unpredictability, with Callahan describing it as a “‘living room record'” in attitude and vibe, “not too loud, not otherworldly”.

Brother Wallace, a “force of nature” bred on gospel, steps into the solo spotlight with his electrifying debut single, “Who’s That.” A triumphant, joyful blast of soul, the track flips heartbreak on its head with grit and Memphis horns. Produced by Dan Taylor (The Heavy), it announces Wallace’s signing to ATO Records and a new era for the show-stopping vocalist.

Robyn Hitchcock’s “Invisible Hitchcock (Outtakes and Demos)” gets a re-release on December 15th. Originally from 1986, the collection gathers home recordings and studio outtakes from his fertile 1981-1985 period, which produced albums like I Often Dream of Trains. Hitchcock preferred this “homemade” approach, avoiding the “digital patina” of 1980s pop to capture his best, most intimate performances.

Black Sweat Records releases Mariolina Zitta’s Concert For Bats, Voices and Natural Sounds. This arcane work, born from speleology and sound archaeology, is a “magical ritual” celebrating bats. Using special detectors, Zitta transforms bat calls into an organic synthesiser, fusing them with natural instruments like stalactites and bone whistles, plus harmonic singing. A total sensory experience.

For their debut EP, daisy, Leilani Patao does things differently, refusing streaming platforms to foster a personal connection. The music is a compelling high-wire act, balancing experimental, glitched-out hyperpop with perfectly structured, dreamy pop-rock. Patao’s immense songwriting talent shines through the lo-fi, grungy production, creating a release that feels both diaristic and wonderfully detached.

Sam Shackleton proves himself an exceptional talent, breathing fresh life into traditional folksongs on ‘Scottish Cowboy Ballads & Early American Folk Songs’, a deeply personal album dedicated to his late father, with whom he used to busk these very songs. “Sam is wrestling music away from Guthrie’s dustbowl and re-dressing it in a seasoned tartan, aglow with heritage and proudly re-rooting it in an unmistakably Scottish soil.”

On How You Been, SML perfect their collaging technique. Tracks sound more complex and intuitive, and they instinctively work a groove, moving from space-age synths to gritty, organic minimalism. Variety is key, from creeping percussion to soft-focus krautrock. This is improvised music at its most engaging and immediate. SML have created another special album, one that forges bright new pathways in American jazz.
