After Eight Show - New Music You Just Don't Hear Anywhere Else!

Our ambition every week is to introduce you to the music of at least 3 artists / bands who are new to you and whose music you'll want to explore.

Our ALBUM OF THE WEEK was 'Technicolour' by Geo Jordan.

Haste magazine: "Multi-instrumentalist, producer, writer and, let’s face it, musical expert, Geo Jordan just keeps getting better and better. Piano, bass and jazz drums are just some of the musical talents that Geo holds."

"Jordan does not hold back with experimentation, allowing each track to take unexpected turns that surprise on the first listen, and delight on the second.

One thing which is stark throughout is Jordan’s vulnerability. His candid vocals sit in the eye of each sonic storm pulling together each of the musical elements to form an intense and emotional record." LICKS Mag review of Technicolour.

In our Luvva Cover feature, we played a cover of an iconic song by Nirvana. The cover is by  Memorial and it completely transforms the mood of the song and amplifies the lyrics. The song was released in 1992 (on Nirvana's second album, Nevermind). Two years later, Kurt Cobain committed suicide by shooting himself in the head. Music journalist Mark Deming suggested that hearing "Cobain sing 'and I swear that I don't have a gun' gives 'Come as You Are' an edge it was never meant to have when [Nevermind] was first released in 1991." Deming reasons that the "I don't have a gun" lyric is Cobain's "attempt to reassure listeners that ... his target is the world at large rather than the individuals in it, and that there was still room in this damaged world for everyone".  Give it a listen and hear this beautifully tragic song interpreted in a new light.
