The last time we heard about The Burma was when they released their debut album Sucker For Stars (find the article here). Now, the band has switched gears and are preparing to release singles from their forthcoming sophomore LP, the name of which is yet to be revealed. While we wait, however, we can sit back, kick our feet up, and watch their new video, a live performance of 4 tracks from their first project.

Watching the video, you will be led through a set containing four tracks from their debut album: ‘Hard To Say’, which opens the show with high energy. Then, the band give us their rendition ‘Blinded by the Lights’ by British band The Streets, which they mixed with their own song ‘Mike and Simone’.  The second half of the performance showcases ‘Don’t Believe Your Dreams’ and finally ‘Sleepers’, putting their debut project to rest, so to speak. Watch it here:

‘Live in Lisdoonvarna’ Video Set List:

1. Hard To Say

2. Mike and Simone + Blinded By The Lights by The Streets

3. Don’t Believe Your Dreams

4. Sleepers

The Burma Tour Dates:

April 18, 2023 Songstress Fourth Daughter’s new song evokes contrasting emotions

Growing from her roots in rural Scotland, Electro Pop songstress Fourth Daughter has shared a single from her yet-to-be-released debut EP HYPERREAL. The single, titled ‘Say What You Want’, comes with a B-side, ‘Calling Out Your Name’. Let’s dive in.

‘Say What You Want’ is a lush dance record. Glide notes reverberate around Fourth Daughter’s warm voice, bolstering its distinct emotion. Bordering on nostalgia, its mood is unquenchable. Upbeat yet slightly sombre, the interplay between happiness and sadness creates a tension that the beat eases, engendering a sense of cathartic release.

Being the youngest of four daughters, Emily Atkinson discovered her love of music while looking for a way to entertain herself in the quiet countryside. Making a name for herself in her homeland under the moniker Fourth Daughter, she has previously been named one of BBC Radio’s Artists To Watch in 2020 by presenter Vic Galloway.

LT is keeping the spirit of youth alive. Fanning the flames, she has released a new song entitled ‘Act Your Age’. Refusing to do exactly that, she defies all who claim to be an authority on the matter, redefining what it means to grow up. No, LT is sticking to her guns, professing her refusal to be told what to do in a spicy bass-driven Indie Pop record. 

Stream / Download: LT – ‘Act Your Age’

“When you’re a kid, people are telling you to grow up and ‘act your age’ and then when you get a little older, women especially, are told they can’t behave, dress, or continue working in a variety of careers because they’re too old.  Stuff that. I’ll act whatever age I want to,” she says, standing her ground on the matter. The independently-released record is out now LT Records.

LT Tour Dates 2023

Thursday 20th April – It’s Still A Secret, Brisbane, Australia

Friday 21st April – Tanks Arts Centre, Cairns, Australia

Wednesday 24th May – (Secret Show), Liverpool, UK

Friday 2nd June – Levi’s Corner House, Cork, Ireland

New York-born, Berlin-based musician Marlena Dae has released ‘No Place To Hide’, the lead single from her debut EP entitled A Delicate Storm via the Good Luck Kid imprint.

The song narrates the story of a girl wandering the streets alone at night desperate to escape the reality she lives in and it’s a stunning introduction to the songstress’ talent and ability to make music that drifts over you in waves. 

Marlena Dae says, “I feel I can relate to this longing for freedom in ‘No Place To Hide.’ Trying to escape one’s reality was definitely a topic for me at the time during quarantine. I feel for this main character who is aware of the dangers that lurk around her, yet she is determined to get to where she needs to be.”
