We chat to M G Boulter, our Artist of the Month, about his new album which introduces us to the eerily familiar landscape of Clifftown, a sleepy seaside resort on the east coast of England.
Journey Through The Roke is a rather fetching gorgeous record. Flitting from Americana, jazz, and blues, with nods to funk, country, and tradition, the album expertly demonstrates Honey and the Bear’s skill and confidence. It is a road I’ll happily wander along again.
In Clifftown, M G Boulter perfectly captures the poetry of everyday life in a muted, fading town. Stay awhile and let its poignancy flow over you. Its quiet grandeur will gently seep into your soul. A thoroughly intoxicating listen.
We chat to Jon Boden about his new album ‘Last Mile Home’, the recent Bellowhead reunion and the much-anticipated return of Spiers and Boden, as well as the challenges of wild swimming. Plus, watch his new video for ‘Old Straight Track’.
The latest album by Jon Boden marks an elegant, profound, and thoroughly rewarding conclusion to a remarkably prescient series of albums. Last Mile Home is a genuinely heartfelt and beautifully structured listen. An exquisitely moving conclusion to Jon’s trilogy. This one will stay with you.
American musician and producer Myles Cochran talks us through his latest album Unsung – “Dense without being heavy, intelligent without being esoteric, this is elegant, nuanced music that has been finely crafted and richly woven.”
Dense without being heavy, intelligent without being esoteric, this is elegant, nuanced music that has been finely crafted and richly woven. Unsung is a quite remarkable album.
If you want to get to the heart and soul of Reveal Records, then bring this compilation into your home and let some inspired music light up your life…one of our finest modern-day record label collectives.
The power of A Casual Invocation comes from its mystery: it feels at once ancient & modern. Folk music at its most transcendent, an antidote to the banal and a gateway to the weird.
With the release of his new album ‘Vana’, we catch up with Ross Ainslie to discuss his new album, personal wellbeing, collaborations over Zoom and the perils of solo improvisation.
There is something pure and beautiful about ‘Home Recordings’ that finely balances and sets it apart from any other Martin Simpson album I can think of. A wonderful achievement and gratefully received.
Vana sees Ross Ainslie at his most musically vigorous, experimental, and confident. A more introspective release – a journey album – linger in it and you’ll be much rewarded.
