Albums

The Moulettes latest album The Bear’s Revenge features some well known guests, it is literally unlike any other album and deserves celebrating! Plus we have an exclusive unreleased live video!

A special début from Sri Lanka’s Woody Guthrie, Bhi Bhiman. With cutting lyrics and a commanding, unique voice, Bhiman soars from the speakers like a cross between Hank Williams, Mississippi John Hurt and Antony Hegarty.

James Reindeer reviews Adam Leonard’s latest release ‘Nature Recordings’ and talks to Adam about the album, his influences and the creative process.

Glen Hansard’s debut solo album Rhythm and Repose is an album of quality and substance. It has a general feeling of serenity which bleeds through the heartfelt story telling…stripped-back, thoughtful and honest.

Joy Dunlop joins forces with innovative Scottish folk duo ‘Twelfth Day’ for her latest release ‘Fiere’, a distinctive project that celebrates the artistic endeavours of fellow female Scots.

Eugene Twist’s ‘The Boy Who Had Everything’ marks the Glasweigan singer’s self-release debut and although just eight tracks long, he’s produced a very accomplished album.

Robbie Basho’s ‘Twilight Peaks’ was originally released on cassette tape in 1984. It has now been picked up and repackaged by a Robbie Basho fan and friend; Glenn Jones and released through Smeraldina-Rima.

On the Dirty Projectors latest album ‘Swing Lo Magellan’ David Longstreth has toned down his heady experimentalism in favour of a simplicity of sorts – favouring hooks, beats and melodies instead of concepts. And it’s a revelation.

Houndmouth hail from the lowland plains and farmlands of Indiana and Kentucky and are as potent grouped around the microphone as they are using all their energy to play to a large audience. One to watch for!

Blind Atlas’s long awaited debut album ‘Kodiak Bear’ is out. Its refreshing to know that a band such as this can still take those classic qualities of the past, re-invent them and make them sound so good today.

On her EP ‘May’ Brooke Sharkey switches effortlessly between lithely melodic and fiery; and her song writing combines haunting poetic imagery with an impressive fusion of styles. One to watch out for!

Take one band from London and one from Geneva. Mix in some Cajun, punk, rockabilly, surf and a dash of Bo Diddley then you have Mama Rosin with Hipbone Slim & The Knee Tremblers!
