Nathan Bryce

Nathan Bryce and Loaded Dice released “Drunk Dial Baby” on Friday, February 13th, and it’s the song that’s going to hit different at 2 AM when your phone buzzes. We all know this story. The late night text arrives. “You up?” Three letters that mean everything and nothing at the same time. Bryce and his band take that exact moment and turn it into a blues funk groove that somehow finds humor in the heartbreak. It’s a smart move because the alternative would have been wallowing, and these guys clearly…

Rebecca Richards

Rebecca Richards dropped “Never Too Late” on March 6th, and it’s the kind of country pop song that sneaks up on you. Not because it’s subtle, but because it means something. The story behind this track is the sort of thing that usually only happens in films. Saskia Griffiths-Moore, founder of Talent Is Timeless, showed up at Rebecca’s gig in Bargoed back in November and offered her a trip to Nashville to record at Ocean Way Studios. Her parents watched the whole thing unfold. That kind of moment sticks with…

Vinyl Floor returns with “I’m on the Upside,” and this is the kind of song that hits you right from the opening notes. Out now on Karmanian Records, it’s the third single from their upcoming album “Balancing Act,” and it’s got that vibe that makes you crank up the volume and point the car in a direction you’ve never driven before.

philojain

I wasn’t expecting much when I hit play on philojain’s new track “Riff Raff.” Solo projects can go either way. But about three seconds in, my speakers started doing things I wasn’t prepared for, and I just kind of sat there. Amit Jain is the whole operation here. Every instrument, every production decision, all him. And you can feel that in the music. There’s something about it that doesn’t sound like it was made by committee, no compromises, no one telling him to pull back on the low end. Because…

Ervin Munir Is Back With “When I Think”

Ervin Munir

Ervin Munir’s third studio album *When I Think* is out now. It might just be his most complete work to date. The Norfolk singer-songwriter has always had a way with honest, reflective songwriting, but this record feels sharper, braver and more emotionally open than anything he’s released before. The album opens with “Lifeline,” immediately setting the tone with its gentle piano lines and quietly intense atmosphere. From there, the 11-track collection unfolds naturally. It moves between stripped-back folk moments and fuller arrangements where the guitars carry a bit more bite.…

Marsha Swanson Releases “Waltz For Life”

Marsha Swanson

“Waltz for Life” by Marsha Swanson keeps pulling me back. When I first heard that Marsha Swanson wrote this piece at just 14 years old, it made perfect sense. There’s an innocence in it, but also this unexpected depth that feels way beyond those years.aThe track runs barely over a minute, which seems almost too brief at first. But honestly, that’s part of what makes it work. Swanson chose to open her album “Near Life Experience” with this waltz, and now she’s closing the album’s two year run by releasing…
