“Sam Carter Sings Nic Jones,” recorded live at Celtic Connections, is a faithful, generous tribute to one of the UK’s finest folk musicians. Carter knows these songs inside out, and he delivers them with a real passion, as well as the care they deserve. It’s a record that hands the tradition on, proof that the cycle of folk music and storytelling is in good health.
Luluc share “No One Else’s Pen”, the second single from their sixth album “Sweet Thief”, out 10th July on Community Music. Steve Hassett calls it a big old love song and a paean to living and loving with integrity, gratitude and presence of mind, set to a video built around printmaker Fleur Rendell’s artwork.
Lambchop share ‘Stella’, the second track from ‘Punching The Clown’, their new album due 21st August via City Slang. Guitar and banjo intertwine beneath an omnipresent choir in a state of lush minimalism — the band’s first record in nearly four years, following ‘The Bible’.
