Uruguayan-British songwriter, drummer and singer Naty Giachino has contributed her talents to a multitude of projects in her years on the scene. The experienced performer and global collaborator began releasing her own solo works just last year, and the result is the uniquely eclectic yet vocally grounded and distinct album Just A Drummer.
Soulful musicianship, electric guitars soaked in reverb, a warming bassline for that old school groove – Ok Rose set the mood beautifully, for their nostalgic and recognisable new single You Are Part of Every Song.
Ten original songs, an impassioned vocal, organic rock set-up and delivery style – writing that seamlessly unites the poetic and the personal – Jordan Seven launches the brand new album 7, in celebration of years of heartfelt songwriting and musicianship.
Dreamy synth-pop unites with intimate acoustic guitar, for a song that passionately declares its love for a significant other. Jakob The Liar masters the process of dedicative songwriting, with the gentle to anthemic tones and intensity of A Song Like You.
Consider the sultry soul, blues and trip hop vibe of a catchy The Way that You Move, or the contrasting indie grit and groove of I am not your Enemy (Song for Gaza). The deeply personal and the broadly topical or political walk hand-in-hand, as Pierre Netty proceeds to let artistic expression and real-time feelings and thoughts guide the creative process.
Acoustic guitar recorded to a crisp and and bright quality, an organic groove and a fast-paced but gentle vocal outpouring – Partywhispers reflects upon romantic longing with equal parts personal and poetic contemplation, for the upbeat indie anthem 2night.
UK songwriter Stephen McCafferty not only writes songs that connect and captivate, but achieves a fine use of contrast structurally along the way. The single Someday Somehow is a fine example of that skilful approach, an explosive rock introduction quickly dropping out for a much more intimate and stripped-back verse vocal.
In The Queue is one of the band’s latest releases, and perhaps their most memorable to date. The single promises a huge earworm of a chorus, a satisfying resolve, and a strangely enthralling subject matter – one perhaps all the more outstanding for those of us who grew up the global capital of enjoying a good queue.
Introducing a uniquely distinct vocal lead and supporting voices that inject an all-together-now sense of oneness, Brace is a refreshingly honest and personal new single, from a band whose sound subtly intertwines aspects of indie rock and Brit-pop across a modern and fairly limitless creative aura.
Pop-rock musician and storyteller Dave Curl masters the groove and sentiments of heartfelt songwriting, with the short lines and vulnerability of an honest to uplifting Fool in Love.
