Premiere: Jeremy Tuplin invites you to ‘Orville’s Discotheque’ with punchy new single ‘Why’d You Go and Look At Me Like That’
Having heard the forthcoming new record from Somerset’s Jeremy Tuplin, we promise it’s as good as place as any to start with his work. The man’s got a serious way with a hook, and it’s particularly evident on his new single. ‘Why’d You Go and Look At Me Like That’ is the latest offering to …
Premiere: Rose Haze stun with the epic sweep of ‘Slow Decay’
If you haven’t heard of Kate Ramsey before, you’ve got plenty to catch up on, but her new song as Rose Haze is a good place to start. In just the last year, she’s released both a full-band album called Maximum Security Prism and an atmospheric instrumental counterpart called Contemplations in the Desert. If you’re …
Premiere: Crocodiles get spiritual in video for new album’s title track; ‘Upside Down in Heaven’ out today
San Diego/Paris noise-pop duo Crocodiles looked like they were done a couple of years ago, with their prolific 2010s output sputtering to a stop with the release of 2019’s Love is Here – thankfully, it wasn’t a euphemistic ‘indefinite’ hiatus, more of a necessary slowing down, a consequence of the pandemic more than anything else. …
Premiere: Ben Copperhead shares the lush arrangements and disarming melodies of ‘Franny and the Songbirds’
This song gets a lot done in just over two-and-a-half minutes, so don’t be surprised if you find yourself going right back for a second listen. The New York-based multi-instrumentalist Ben Copperhead (who made music as Baby Copperhead in a previous life) has a new album due at the end of the month, and his …
Premiere: Charlie & Margot goes for a ‘Joyride’ on debut album, out tomorrow
Matteo DeBenedetti looks like he’s just realised his album’s out tomorrow, but there’s no need for him to be nervous because we’ve heard it and it’s very good indeed.

Premiere: Sunnsetter shares ‘The Whole World That Turns Around Itself’ with new album out today
The new record from Andrew McLeod has this hazy, perfectly timed early-springtime air about it. One part shoegaze and one part ambience, it’s all them. The Norfolk County, Ontario-based artist is also part of Zoon, but under his solo guise Sunnsetter makes music that’s a little more wistful, surprisingly meditative and prone to exploration. ‘The …
Premiere: Stream Camp Bedford’s wonderful debut EP ‘So Often & So Sweet’ ahead of release tomorrow
You’ve got about 12 minutes, right? Good – you absolutely should take them to listen to this: a 3-song EP from Brooklyn trio Camp Bedford. You may have seen us raving about recent single ‘Jupiter’ at the beginning of March, but here’s the elevator pitch: fans of First Aid Kit, Wye Oak or The Staves …
Premiere: FRANKIIE get ‘Visions’ of déjà vu on otherworldly new single
It’s always nice to hear from FRANKIIE. They’re intent on making up for lost time after going quiet for obvious reasons following 2019 debut album Forget Your Head – this is the Vancouver band’s second single in six weeks following the reveal of ‘Garden’ last month. You can, and should, catch up with it below …
Premiere: BabyJake drags Tennessee’s regressive laws on new song ‘We Got to Get Together to Be Free’
Here’s a song we can definitely get behind on principle alone; it just so happens to also be a jam and a half. You may be familiar with Nashville’s BabyJake, who released his debut album The Sun Wakes Up Earlier Now in 2021. You’ve probably heard recently about the legislative attack on drag performers—a shot …
Premiere: Cary LaScala is ‘For Real’ a Solo Artist Now, Shares Debut as Bloody Bananas
You probably shouldn’t eat Bloody Bananas. Or beetroots for that matter. However, Cary LaScala’s needed a little extra time for his solo career under that name to ripen and now it’s ready to be picked. We’re all out of fruit metaphors so that means we can move on to the music. A Bay Area transplant, …
