episode 109: After Eight Show - 20/07/21
The After Eight Show is almost exclusively NEW music and is an eclectic mix of original, intelligent, melodic, grown-up songs - alt. indie, dreampop, rnb, electronic, blues/Americana, jazz, world and folk-inspired acoustic music. And mostly from artists who you have not heard of - yet! Think 'next series of Jools' - that's the kind of artists that we play.
Our Album of the Week was '' by Newburgh (New York) band Cold Heaven. They're a rock band formed in the late 2000's and they write and record original songs with punk roots that incorporate lush, expressive synths and haunting melodies. This is their second full length album - they've recorded an introduction for us and we'll be playing three tracks from the album during the course of the show.
Our Luvva Cover feature, this week, has two giants of the music scene over the last 30 years or more. In 1986, Paul Simon travelled to South Africa, collaborated with local musicians there, and recorded his seminal album Graceland. In 2010, Peter Gabriel launched a project called You Scratch My Back where he recorded cover versions of songs by well known artists and, in return, they covered one of his. Peter Gabriel did a magnificent cover of The Boy In The Bubble and, in return, Paul Simon recorded Gabriel's song Biko.
