Our Song of the Day comes from Tasseomancy. Watch their new video for ‘Braid. Wind Is Coming’, the making of which is a story in itself as video director Blake Blakely explains.

The music on Cold Moon has a deceptively gentle tone that can mask the powerful lyrics and the slowly developing theme of departure. It is also a truly, remarkable album – we can only hope that Diane and Francesconi continue collaborating and make many more like it.

The new film by London film maker Liam Barker ‘Voice of the Eagle: The Enigma of Robbie Basho’, is to receive it’s world premiere next month following its selection for the Raindance film festival.

We have an exclusive album stream of Gabrielle Papillon’s ‘The Tempest Of Old’ which captures the pick-up-and-play honesty in her song writing with each track being beautifully produced alongside a yielding sense of time and place. Listen to it here, it’s a real treat.

Gren Bartley has recorded an absorbing collection of songs awash with poetic lyrical imagery and stunning harmonies. His decision to work with a contemporary producer should broaden the appeal of an album where the magnificent creatures are the songs.

Esteesee conforms to the exceptionally high standard of presentation of Ange’s previous albums; having already, long ago and from the start, set herself such a benchmark, she simply cannot depart from it.

Ryan Boldt’s ‘Broadside Ballads’ is a love letter to his record collection. Now reissued, this understated and haunting album is – no more, no less – a collection of Boldt’s renditions of some of the traditional North American and British folk songs he holds so dear.

Sam Lee and composer Llywelyn ap Myrddin reveal ‘Nose Song’, their contribution to the Body of Songs project, a music and science experiment that brings together some of Britain’s most talented musicians to create a collection of songs, inspired by our inner workings.

Produced by Dave Stewart, The Lake Poets is the debut release from Sunderland singer/song writer Martin Longstaff, one on which his distinctive voice and capacity for forging a strong lyric from his own experience shines through.

Our Song of the Day by the Woolen Men has also served to highlight an ongoing issue – namely the plight of the small music venue thanks to mega-venues, redevelopers, gentrification and over-regulation.

The latest offering from The Men They Couldn’t Hang’s powerhouse songwriting partnership of Paul Simmonds and Phil ‘Swill’ Odgers is certainly a persuasive collection and a salutary reminder of their collective talents.
