See: Fictionian releases new video for “Mrs Jones”
Mrs Jones is the new single from Hertfordshire based multi-instrumentalist Fictionian, aka Glen Roberts.

Meet: Stone Cold Fox’s Kevin Olken Henthorn, and listen to their new track, Contagion
We rather fell for the new single, a Contagion, from Brooklyn quintet Stone Cold Fox, when we saw it. Beginning with this rather lovely pulsating synth/indie pop, it’s blessed with a glitteringly catchy melody, that makes repeat ed listenings a bit of a must. As it progresses it grows and morphs, taking in some prog-pop, …
