"Its brilliant simplicity, a shuffled beat, a cascade of softly chiming strings and two voices searching for each other, remind me of the sort of music and have blessed us with in the past, songs so fragile that after they have finished, you might question if they ever existed if it was not for the new emotions making their way into your heart and soul. But even such an acoldate is only the starting point for this truly beautiful sonic spark of real compassion and humanity." - Big Takeover Magazine

Brennan Gilmore's "My Name is Daniel Leek" is due out the 17th of July!

I want to start by talking about the album that this single is taken from, Brennan Gilmore’s debut, which will be out in a few weeks. Whilst stationed in South Sudan, Gilmore saw the words “My Name is Daniel Leek” scrawled on the wall of a refugee shelter, a moment in time, a fragment of a per...

"'Time to Talk' cements Whoop as a band with an identity of their own: alternative in spirit, melodic in instinct and increasingly confident in their chemistry. It is the sound of a band becoming more focused without sanding down their edges and of a group that seems to know, more clearly than ever, what it wants to be." - LOUD WOMEN

“'Hank the Dragon' stands out for the ease with which it marries adventure and emotions. Built on a restless synth-rock rhythm, the song proffers a question about whether love can survive the erosion of the very qualities that first made it possible. The result is both incisive and important." - V13 Media

"With 'Tightrope,' Whoop show they’re not losing what made them exceptional in the first place. Instead, they continue to hone their sound while honing its emotional impact, giving us a track that lingers long after the last note and sets an exciting tone for the album." - Zillions Magazine

"Blending folky understatement with twanging early country-rock meets surf-guitar sound, and soaked through with a hazy, gorgeously atmospheric undertone, ['Kind of Woman'] evokes the heartache of separation, a song of love and longing, but one that is that rare thing… honest, authentic, believable." - Big Takeover Magazine

Todd Adelman and the Woodsmen release the 26th of June, via Vfib Recordings

Before we get to the woman in question, Todd Adelman and his sonic gang make the sort of sound that makes country music (Americana, alt-country…call it what you will) look good. If such genres seem to follow a well-worn template, you know, music with a gung-ho vibe about lonesome urban cowboys, pi...

"This song is a tribute to accepting the good with the bad, and a healthy dose of stoicism: “I guess I can’t complain, seeing pleasure in the pain, there ain’t no marks.” With a steady rhythm and electric guitar riffs, Aaron Skiles probes the elements of resignation with an acknowledgement that life is easiest when we accept everything as it comes." - Americana Highways
