Album Reviews

Steve Knightley “Positively Folk Street”

April 28, 2025 Rick Thorn 1
Heartfelt, simple tribute to early influences. A lot of tribute/cover albums can often leave you a little underwhelmed and wondering if the artist is just going through the motions or has run out of ideas. ‘Positively […]

Gordie Tentrees & Jaxon Haldane “Double Takes”

April 28, 2025 Jonny Brick 0
Ten songs packed with melody, musicianship and morals. Having known each other for two decades, and after recording a live album in 2018, Tentrees and Haldane combine in a Nashville studio under the auspices of producer […]

Ally Kerr “True Nature”

April 28, 2025 Helen Jones 0

Joshua Burnside “It’s Not Going To Be Okay”

April 24, 2026 0
A searing display of grief through ten bare songs. How we all cope with grief is complex and individual, though the ability of energising one’s sadness through music is a powerful and positive one. Belfast’s Joshua […]
