Wavves' new album Spun is out now and arrives with a music video for the Travis Barker-produced track "Way Down." Led by singles such as “Goner,” the Nathan Williams and Stephen Pope co-write, “Lucky Stars,” and fan favorite “Spun,” the new record marks a confident return to the radio-ready alt-rock anthems that defined their 2013 breakout, Afraid of Heights. These songs are loud, lean, and built for volume. Spun leans hard into the band’s melodic instincts, delivering a tracklist full of hooks that stick and choruses that beg to be blasted.

Scottish singer/songwriter Gary Stewart and his versatile six-piece band have been delighting audiences far and wide with their faithful rendition of Paul Simon's classic album, 'Graceland'.

Blackbeard’s Tea Party have been playing folk-rock together for over ten years. The band started out busking on the streets, but Blackbeard’s Tea Party are now more likely to be found on a festival stage, arts centre or rock venue.

The Bevis Frond (guitarist and songwriter extraordinaire Nick Saloman) have ultimately become the UK’s leading underground psychedelic rock band. Their music is an iconoclastic collision of distinctly British psychedelia, space-rock, grunge, slow-burning soulful laments, even grizzled folk and more than occasional moments of sublime pop genius.

Live, the line-up today includes: Paul Simmons (guitar), Louis Wiggett (bass, vocals), Dave Pearce (drums) and Nick Saloman (vocals, guitar and sitar).

No one in Foxwarren has ever made a record quite like 2. The Canadian quintet, built on 20 years of friendship, ostensibly plays folk music, where warm tones and cantering rhythms buoy songs of characters wrestling with existential quandaries inside of twilit vocals. But after touring their lauded 2018 self-titled debut, Foxwarren decided to do it all differently, eventually dropping the familiar band-in-a-room routine to instead plug those songs, and various other sounds into a sampler.

One of the driving themes of Anthony Powell’s roman-fleuve, Dance to the Music of Time, is the contrast between those characters driven solely by power and those more in tune with life’s more sensual pleasures. Inevitably, time and fate catches up with each protagonist and the reader can ponder if their fates are justified or not. The New Sound, Geordie Greep’s debut solo album, often feels as if it is a rerun of Powell’s theme, soundtracked by a miscreant - and totally wired - Palm Court Orchestra.

They came from the trees. Now settled in fertile east London, Snapped Ankles maintain the feral energy of the forest.
