    More great New Music You Just Don't Hear Anywhere Else! in this week's episode.

    Our our ALBUM OF THE WEEK actually comes from last year but we have only just become aware of it and it is sensational! The album is 'Two Of Me' and it's by Momma. They're a brilliant 4-piece indie rock band from LA.

    "Momma's Two Of Me is a twisted, enchanting carnival ride ... the music itself, which draws you in with grungy yet sunwashed chords. It’s the aural version of when you close your eyes on a sunny day, heat pouring in red through the lids. β€œBug House,” the sprawling opener, lulls you into a false sense of security before escalating into a vortex of heavy distortion." Paste

    In our Luvva Cover feature, we will be playing a really inventive version of one of The Beach Boys' best known songs. It's by Shovels and Rope and also features the incredible Sharon Van Etten - give it a listen and decide for yourself!

    Lots more New Music You Just Don't Hear Anywhere Else in this week's show!

    This week, our ALBUM OF THE WEEK was 'Invisible Things' by Mari Conti.
    "Mari Conti’s new album delves into the darkness and light that can be found in life and the invisible ties that connect us all.
    It’s refreshing to listen to an album that pushes the boundaries on what constitutes the mainstream way to create a song. The typical blueprint of tracks with an ABABCB structure has been chucked out the window on Mari Conti’s album. β€œInvisible Things” is an album that is inherently its own in sound, style and structure. A breath of fresh air to listen to!" Pop Mag

    In our LUVVA COVER feature, we played a VERY atmospheric cover of a beautiful song by Moses Sumney. Kee'ahn is a young Australian singer - a proud Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander. Kee'ahn weaves lush melodies and words reminiscent of heartbreak and healing. Her rich vocals and hopeful lyrics champion the idea that finding strength in our struggles, encourages us to reflect, reinvent, and rejoice in all of our own individual healing journeys. This cover was commissioned as part of the Uprising festival in Melbourne. It really is stunning - give it a listen!

    Our ambition every week is to introduce you to the music of at least 3 artists / bands who are new to you and whose music you'll want to explore.

    Our ALBUM OF THE WEEK, this week, is 'Area 52 Truck Stop' by Sylvia Bullett.

    "I have been visualising post plague dance parties spinning this!"

    It features two members of iconic band Television – Fred Smith on bass and Richard Lloyd on guitar. The album is so named because she recorded it during Covid time and actually finished one of the earliest songs pulling up her truck alongside the legendary Area 52 Studios: Dave "Loveshack" Cook ran cables out to the truck cab for vocal mic and earphones- thus the inspiration for the album's name.

    In our LUVVA COVER feature, we will be playing an amazing instrumental cover of an iconic Radiohead song by a Lebanese violinist. Ara Malikian was a child prodigy, studied in Hanover and London, and now includes classical, experimental, ethnic (e.g. gipsy, Klezmer, Spanish and Argentinian) and modern compositions. This cover, released about 5 years ago, is so exciting, original and energetic! Give it a listen!

    More New Music You Just Don't Hear Anywhere Else in this week's show!

    Our ALBUM OF THE WEEK, this week, is 'Half Mirror' by Chorusing.

    "From his home in the hills of North Carolina, recording as Chorusing, Matthew O’Connell has created a piece of music that manages to create new language and meaning by meticulously crafting the sounds and lyrics that make Half Mirror something totally unique." Folk Radio UK

    In our LUVVA COVER feature, we will be playing a cover of a massive Tik Tok viral hit by Beach Bunny in 2020. The cover version, by Paravi, is a complete transformation of the song and became a Tik Tok viral hit earlier this year!
    "Paravi’s version of the song opens with her her softly stating, β€œI hate all men, but…” She then begins to sing in a deeply rich lower register transforming the upbeat garage song into one filled with loss and longing." Give it a listen and see what you think!

    Our ambition every week is to introduce you to the music of at least 3 artists / bands who are new to you and whose music you'll want to explore.

    Our ALBUM OF THE WEEK was 'Technicolour' by Geo Jordan.

    Haste magazine: "Multi-instrumentalist, producer, writer and, let’s face it, musical expert, Geo Jordan just keeps getting better and better. Piano, bass and jazz drums are just some of the musical talents that Geo holds."

    "Jordan does not hold back with experimentation, allowing each track to take unexpected turns that surprise on the first listen, and delight on the second.

    One thing which is stark throughout is Jordan’s vulnerability. His candid vocals sit in the eye of each sonic storm pulling together each of the musical elements to form an intense and emotional record." LICKS Mag review of Technicolour.

    In our Luvva Cover feature, we played a cover of an iconic song by Nirvana. The cover is by Memorial and it completely transforms the mood of the song and amplifies the lyrics. The song was released in 1992 (on Nirvana's second album, Nevermind). Two years later, Kurt Cobain committed suicide by shooting himself in the head. Music journalist Mark Deming suggested that hearing "Cobain sing 'and I swear that I don't have a gun' gives 'Come as You Are' an edge it was never meant to have when [Nevermind] was first released in 1991." Deming reasons that the "I don't have a gun" lyric is Cobain's "attempt to reassure listeners that ... his target is the world at large rather than the individuals in it, and that there was still room in this damaged world for everyone". Give it a listen and hear this beautifully tragic song interpreted in a new light.

    Lots more innovative, melodic, fascinating new music in this week's show!

    Our ALBUM OF THE WEEK is the amazing debut album of Gal Musette. She is a musical prodigy who began writing piano based lyrical compositions and performing at open mics in her home city of San Clemente, CA at the age of 10. 'Backwards Lullaby' explores the pangs of hopeless romances and unrequited love, what it’s like to move beyond idealized love into the acceptance of what is real and constant, as well as the cyclical nature of life and love in relationships.
    "baroque pop songs inspired by lost love, yearning & hopelessness"
    "breathtakingly beautiful layered vocals ... heartfelt & vibrant mix of indie pop & folk laced confessions"

    In our LUVVA COVER feature, we will be playing a cover of a gorgeous song by Big Thief. The cover is by 'bedroom pop sensation' Cavetown.
    "The tenderness in the cover is on display from the jump. The vocals are doubled to give a bit of an Elliott Smith feel here as things roll out with a beautiful tone. The song takes on a bit of a new life without steering from the original. The guitar and vocals together drive home the softness in the cover. There's a harmonic note deliver on the song that takes hold as the vocals are the driving factor. It's a simple cover but it works with earnest and sincere intentions." closedcap

    We are also incredibly proud to be raising awareness of the #v4velindre fundraising project in aid of the NHS Velindre Cancer Centre. The great Kevin McGrath has compiled a brilliant album of 50 songs by artists from the UK, Italy, USA and elsewhere and all proceeds will be donated to a great cause. We will be playing Apathy by Little RΓͺd - please visit https://v4velindre.bandcamp.com/album/v4velindre and show your support by downloading the album which is stacked full of great music!

    · After Eight Show - New Music You Just Don't Hear Anywhere Else!

    A festival of new music again this week. With, perhaps, a bit of an electronic / nu jazz feel about it.

    This week, our ALBUM OF THE WEEK is 'somewhere' by Sun June. Sun June is an American indie pop band from Austin, Texas.
    "Somewhere showcases a gentle maturation of Sun June's sound, a second record full of quiet revelation, eleven songs that bristle with love and longing. It finds a band at the height of their collective potency, able to transport the listener into a fascinating new landscape, one that lies somewhere between the town and the city, between the head and the heart, neither here nor there, but certainly somewhere."

    In our LUVVA COVER feature, we will be playing a cover of a Beatles standard by a bedroom pop duo, Memoryhouse. They are from Toronto and have released an EP of Beatles covers called 'Mania'.
    "Mania is a lush and bold exploration of The Beatles that reflects the chaos and longing of the year - and our desperate need to cling to whatever joy we can find. It has that trademark Memoryhouse feeling of melancholy, taking that familiar Beatles classic and giving it a whole new spin, and meaning along the way."
