Flora Hibberd has shared “Shelley”, the latest track from her second album “Mammoth”, out 16th October via 22TWENTY. Built on lush minor-key chords, pedal steel and close harmonies with J.E. Sunde, it’s a country-leaning turn she describes as a boxing match around the kitchen table. The video was filmed in Paris and elsewhere, in summer with pals.
“Made In Senegal” is Orchestra Baobab’s first album in over ten years, out October 23rd on Strut/Madoky. Second single “Ana Maria” was written by the late Rudy Gomis for the grandmother who alone supported his career in music, drawing on Casamance Creole imagery to send the wind as a messenger between generations.
Prairiewolf’s “Zone Poems” blurs the line between studio recording and live album, its material cherry-picked from 2025 sets in Crestone and Denver, then layered, manipulated and rearranged. Each decision is discerning, the sound never overcrowded. Previously made recordings have been examined, forensically operated on and crafted into a precise, clean set of songs that captures a trio’s energy.
