Willie J Healey - Bunny
Released 25th August 2023
SK says: "Healey's previous record Twin Heavy won fans including Jamie T (who appears on the new album), IDLES frontman Joe Talbot and Alex Turner for its fresh take on 70s reference points from George Harrison to Neil Young to Elvis Costello. Bunny adds a dash of the breathy funk of Prince, the exuberant soul of Stevie Wonder and, on its slower numbers, hints of Gene Clark's No Other for a highly accomplished and downright fun throwback to a musical golden age."
Is Willie J Healey your favourite artists’ favourite artist? You better believe it. Alex Turner, Joe Talbot of IDLES, Jamie T and Orlando Weeks are among those who believe, most having come onboard following the Neil Young-meets-The Beatles-meets Elvis Costello charms of his 2020 album ‘Twin Heavy’. And while Willie has largely been the preserve of those in the know, that’s all about to change. When Florence Welch heard his upcoming album ‘Bunny’ via its producer, her friend Loren Humphrey, as well as through YALA! Records co-founder Felix White, she was sufficiently impressed to invite Willie and his band on this autumn’s Florence + The Machine arena tour.
If you’ve already discovered the album’s introductory track, ‘Tiger Woods’, you’ll have had a first taste of why Florence was so won over. It sees Willie dive headfirst into a style of music he has always loved, but that never previously found its way into his own songs. It’s a low-slung, sensual ‘70s-style jam which simultaneously calls to mind Sly and The Family Stone, Philly soul, ‘Midnite Vultures’-era Beck and a little OutKast.

Released 17th October 2025 SK says: "TWIABP follow 2021's sprawling, proggy Illusory Walls with a complete volte face- a streamlined, punishing metalcore album with screamed vocals courtesy of guests from the likes of Full Of Hell and END (even chief vocalist David Bello, one of the scene's mellower singers, has a noticeably angrier delivery!) Still full of the strong imagery and thoughtful political critique that has always elevated the Connecticut band's work but foregrounding guitarist Chr...

Released 12th September 2025 SK says: 'Beats courtesy of star producer Paul Epworth give Baxter Dury fresh impetus and as close to a pop album as the London wordsmith can muster. The album's title-track spins a tale of being stood up in a bleak chain pub, cleverly contracted into more salubrious sounding environs, especially cooed in the Estuary accent of frequent collaborator JGrrey. "Return of the Sharp Heads" boasts a nightmarishly woozy bassline that his old man's sparring partner Norman ...

Released 29th August 2025 SK says: 'Another corker from the peppy Kiwi indie quartet led by Liz Stokes. 2022's Expert in a Dying Field pitched Stokes' witty, vulnerable songwriting against power pop guitar rhythms and irresistible vocal harmonies to stunning effect. Tackling similar themes here, there's a layer of subtle experimentation and a strong jangle influence that makes this one a different but just as sweet pleasure.' Written in Los Angeles and self- recorded in the band's hometown of...

There are elements of the sleek 80s pop members Marta Cikojevic and David Carriere explored on their excellent side project outing as Marci, but the album's stars are singer (and sometime flautist) Jane Penny and bassist Riley Fleck, who spearhead the tongue-in-cheek pivot to "evil TOPS" with icy, lovelorn vocals and rumbling low-end that ...
