There was a throng of #NewMusic tracks in our playlist this week! An eclectic mix of original, intelligent, melodic, grown-up songs - #electronic, #rnb, #jazz, #blues and #acoustic. And mostly from artists who you have not heard of - yet!
Amongst our selections, there was #NewMusic from Beauty In Chaos + Evi Vine, Christone "KINGFISH" Ingram + Buddy Guy, Marika Hackman + Let's Eat Grandma, GRAE, Mozez + DJ Celeste Lear, Zeb Samuels, Bryony Jarman-Pinto, Joy Crookes, ANNE PACEO, Seasurfer, Nguyen Le, Nitin Sawhney + YVA + Dhruv Sangari + Nicki Wells, Ghostpoet, Airmodular + Jenifer Douros, Cleo Sol, Agnes Obel, Les Amazones d'Afrique, Zoë Modiga + Tubatsi Mpho Moloi and Family Time.
Our Luvva Cover feature was special this week! One of Billie Holiday's best loved songs has been given a complete makeover by Ester Rada, one of Israel's biggest stars. As with all good cover versions, it is not an attempt to recreate the original - Ms. Rada very much puts her own jazz-inspired stamp on it. It's fascinating - give it a listen!
