Scott Cook and the Long Weekends “Go Long” (Groove Revival, 2016)

September 22, 2016 Rudie Hayes 0
A bit overly complicated, you just want Cook to make a record, and forget the Frisbee spin off game sleeves etc.  Musically it is very appealing, lyrically hilarious; “Judging from the angle of the sun its […]

Hattie Briggs “Young Runaways” (Wise Dog Records, 2016)

September 22, 2016 Rudie Hayes 0
It’s hard not to draw comparisons to other female singers and songwriters whilst listening to this record, as it has so many of them referenced along the way, it is such a striking lineage you find […]

Peter James Millson “The Red Café” (Ind, 2016)

September 22, 2016 Rudie Hayes 0
An album of late night laments, jazz infusions and electronic flourishes reminds me of the late Colin Vearncombe, ABC and David Sylvian.  It does feel a little like a 80/90’s pop star making a ‘grown up’ […]

September 20, 2016 Paul Kerr 0
On her second album Welsh songstress Georgia Ruth, nominated in 2014 for a Radio Two Folk Award, offers more radio friendly music although in this instance it’s more likely that it will be Radio 6Music who […]

Track Premiere: Charissa Hoffman “Forward Motion”

August 13, 2026 0
What do you get when you give a sixth-generation musician and aspiring songwriter a ukulele? You’re expecting fey songs or something a little bedroom-based, right? No, no, no…that’s not Charissa Hoffman at all. She explains that […]

Interview: Juana Everett is setting herself free

August 7, 2026 0
At once nostalgic travelogue, introspective head-trip, and rootsy showcase, Madrid-born Juana Everett’s second album should be her breakthrough record. Past Lives in California swims headfirst through the murky waters of transit, both literal and metaphysical. Bring […]
