Gideon Foster has released "Come The Rain," a new single that touches on profound themes of faith and relinquishing control.

On the surface, R&B and soul singer Alanna Royale appeared to be brimming with confidence, yet the artist behind the internal earthquake ‘Trouble Is’, insists that until this latest LP, she felt fragmented. Only after the most unnerving time of her life, did Royale finally feel at ease, bringing her full artistic self to the table. “There is a lyric by one of my favourite rappers that goes, “You gave me the tools but didn’t show me how to hold them”, she explains, citing how everything finally congealed on this record. After a brutal period that ended with an emotional collapse, Royale produced her most hauntingly honest, poetic collection of songs yet. “I wanted to make something so intensely personal but now have to live with it,” she partially jokes. 

Totnes came to life last night to celebrate the release of local folk duo Harbottle & Jonas's new album, Wild Goose. The launch was held at St Mary’s Church, right in the heart of the town. Arriving at 7pm, I found the place packed with excitement and anticipation, with a mix of familiar and new faces all gathered with a common purpose in this wonderful location.

KIN TALA offers up astounding sonic worlds in their upcoming debut EP ‘Not All Those Who Wander Are Lost.’ Fusing elements of indie-rock, electronic, and ambient genres, KIN TALA’s debut EP is an effortless evolution of their alternative-indie sound. ‘Not All Those Who Wander Are Lost’ is set to secure the North West duo’s place as an important act to watch this year. 

The song which is lovely tapestry of pop, rock, punk and narrative story telling immediately engages with the catchy hook “all I hear is blah, blah, blah”.  Whilst the song contains theme’s which speak to a general disillusionment with politics and politicians of all persuasions, the band are keen to encourage people to get out and vote.
