Jeffrey Silverstein has announced “Doggone”, his new album out 23rd October via Full Time Hobby, and shared lead single and video “Out of Tune” with guest vocals from Devendra Banhart.

Akira Kosemura’s “MIRAI” is out today. This highly anticipated album is his first-ever vocal project, featuring an impressive lineup including Devendra Banhart and Mr Hudson. Watch the video for “Ongaku” featuring Devendra Banhart, directed by Joel Kazuo Knoernschild, offering a visual journey into Kosemura’s phantasmal statement for the future and his quest for a musical utopia.

On this weeks Nest Collective Hour, Jamie Doe presents a selection of new releases from all corners of the folk spectrum and he is joined live in the studio by incredible London singer-songwriter Theo Bard.

Devendra Banhart may have cut his luscious locks but he is still the same, folky, psychedelic, Jim Morrison channelling, animal loving hippy he ever was. One member of a modern incarnation of the Laurel Canyon set, which today includes Vashti Bunyan, Vetiver and Joanna Newsom to name but a few, Banhart’s distinguishable hirsute 1970’s throwback look was the only thing lacking at a jam-packed Koko on Sunday night.

We recently interviewed Lail Arad and took the opportunity of asking her to do a mix. The result was the Mango Mix, it beats the mix she did for Q Magazine hands down!

Holly Throsby is, for want of a better word, a travelling troubador, whose deeply personal lyrics and warming voice have made her the winner of many hearts both at home in Australia and abroad.

Lail Arad is a young up and coming folk singer/songwriter and engaging performer who has played with the likes of Devendra Banhart and has a growing reputation on the London folk scene. She releases here debut album ‘Someone New’ later this year. So, being intrigued by new and wonderful talent I managed to catch up for a chat and a cuppa.
