Released 9th October 2026 BODEGA’s upcoming brand-new album ‘All Inside Aquarium’ sees the band expanding far beyond their minimalist post-punk origins towards soaring anthemic rock, sans the ‘indie’. The group’s goal was, “Let’s go back to melodic tunes, let’s be more of a proper rock band,” Hozie explains. Sonically, the band aimed for “this late ’80’s / early 90’s Stone Roses-meets-Janes Addiction thing, with more riffing and guitar solos.” Where the band’s earlier material took a more exp...

Released 9th October 2026 Jess Williamson has built one of the most distinctive voices in American music — crystalline, acrobatic, and unmistakably her own. The Texas-born, Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist has spent the better part of a decade carving out her own lane at the intersection of indie folk, alt-country, and a deeply personal confessional tradition. Now, on her seventh studio album, she steps into new creative territory. Produced by Shooter Jennings, ...

Released 9th October 2026 Ghosts (100 Days of Morning) sees the return of one of Britain’s most beloved artists, Jamie T. A confronting 11-track collection of former ghosts brought to life during a difficult time in his life, Ghosts (100 Days of Morning) nods to growing up and leaving youth behind, love, loss and the brittle nostalgia of halcyon indie-era nights. Ghosts is as much about letting go as it is reclaiming his identity. The album, produced in part by Jamie, James Dring (Loyle Carne...

Released 9th October 2026 Much like a teacher, Meryl Streek imparts his knowledge and lived experiences to all who are willing to listen. His third album, ‘Stories They Don’t Teach You At School’, serves as an alternative form of education, delivered through a visceral blend of factual soundbites and raw emotion, loops and samples, guitars and bass. The lyrics resonate with core values of compassion, resilience, and community—themes rarely explored within a classroom setting or seen in today'...

Released 2nd October 2026 SK says: 'The Stockport indie faves are back with a sixth album, this time helmed by Young Gun Silver Fox's silver fox, Shawn Lee, who brings his love of vintage gear and yacht rock and amps up the band's sense of humour and latent groove, both of which started to come to the fore on previous album 'Gary'. The result is a genuinely fun, funky, marriage-inspired record of big hooks, tall tales and foot-tappers.' Blossoms return with their 6th studio album, ‘Songs From...

Released 2nd October 2026 The Age Of Everything is Johnny Marr's fifth full length studio record. Written in London, developed live on the road across the East Coast of North America and recorded in Manchester, The Age Of Everything captures the energy and tensions of the city. Sharp, fast and dynamic, filled with ideas and possibilities. “This is the record that’s been the most cathartic. The title came to me early in the process and became an inescapable idea. It seemed to sum up the way I ...

Released 31st July 2026 SK says: "An intense and meaningful connection to the natural world is a hallmark of a Shearwater record- perhaps no surprise, bandleader Jonathan Meiburg is a qualified biologist and published author- and the songs here, augmented by birdcalls and field recordings, find it a theme that has become all the more urgent in a world of AI, deepfakes and political deception. Comparison to Talk Talk is almost irresistible, not just because of the aural similarity of Meiburg's...

Released 8th May 2026 SK says: 'Completing a trilogy of sorts for the Captured Tracks label which has seen the prodigiously talented D'Addario brothers focus their obvious musical chops into highly melodic throwback radio hits that could have arrived straight from the Golden Age of guitar pop, Look For Your Mind! is trippier than its predecessors, leaning more into the 60's end of their sound than the 70's they explored on A Dream Is All We Know. They've never shied from wearing their influen...

Released 1st May 2026 SK says: 'The godfathers of Midwest emo return with a third full-length since they reformed back in 2016. Having iterated and refined their trademark blend of cascading guitar arpeggios and dark lyrics burnished occasionally by vibraphones and trumpet across three albums in twenty-five years, LP4 sees them probe new ground with tasteful contributions from members of Turnstile and Rainer Maria. At times recalling the interlocking experimentation of fellow Chicagoans Torto...

Released 3rd April 2026 SK says: "A kaleidoscopic meditation on relationships, grief and neurodiversity, helmed by three exec producers who bring their own flavours and collaborators: hitmaker Greg Kurstin, Kenneth 'Kenny Beats' Blume (fresh from Geese's mega 'Getting Killed') and longtime mentor Flying Lotus. 'cat's acolytes DOMi and JD Beck join him on the jazz fusion workout "Candlelight", The Lemon Twigs lend Brian Wilson/Todd Rundgren power pop harmonies to a couple of songs, Tame Impala...

Released 20th March 2026 Change, they say, is the only constant in life. Fittingly, multi‑hyphenate musician Avalon Emerson sounds at home harnessing the steady flux of her existence on Written into Changes, the memoiristic second album released under her Avalon Emerson & the Charm moniker. A work of rigorous invention and revision, the album’s themes of personal and relationship evolution “came into clarity after they were all done,” according to Emerson. The making of Changes was, appro...
