The latest album, Merrie Land’s focus moves beyond GBQ’s London-themed first album to a wider land, with a beautiful and hopeful paean to the Britain of today, an inclusive Britain, currently in an Anglo-Saxostentialist crises at the end of a relationship, wondering what might be salvaged. Could there be a more perfect band – with their creative symbiosis of pasts and present and shared acclaimed music histories – to reflect on the anticipation, disorientation and confusion of current life.

Cambridge-based alt-indie band Goldblume share new video for ‘We All Know Why and Who’

Cambridge-based alternative trio, Goldblume, release the second single ‘We All Know Why And Who’, taken from the bands upcoming debut album, HUSK. The album is set for a 9th November 2018 release through Aaahh!!! Real Records.

Watch the official video for ‘We All Know Why And Who’ by Goldblume below

HUSK is a record which encourages you to be kinder to you, and to better understand the mental state of other people, as well as your own. Recorded by David Leighton at River Run Studios in Potton, Cambridgeshire and self-produced and mixed by the band themselves at guitarist Jethro’s home studio, these 10 tracks are a dichotomy—bold, emotional and powerful, but also intricate and delicate. The new album is a three-year journey into trying to find a sense of self and connecting it to the face you see in the mirror.

In support of HUSK, the band will take to the road throughout November:
08 Nov – Cambridge, Portland Arms
11 Nov – Ipswich, Smokehouse
12 Nov – Brighton, Pipeline
13 Nov – Bath, St James Wine Vaults
15 Nov – Leicester, Vault
16 Nov – Peterborough, Ostrich Inn
17 Nov – Bury St Edmunds, Hunter Club
22 Nov – Hertford, Dog and Whistle
24 Nov – Haverhill, Arts Centre

Singer-Songwriter, Francine Belle, released powerful new single with colourful video, ‘Beautiful Heights’

UK based singer-songwriter and innovate artist, Francine Belle, released her debut single along with a music video for her brand new track, ‘Beautiful Heights’ released via Golden Ratio Records. Of the latest release, tastemaker publication FGUK said “The new track has a unique distinct feelgood factor that is only elevated by her candy pink backdrops and flower fields.”

A true appreciator of progressive and dynamic pop, Francine Belle cites Beyonce, Lana Del Rey, Florence & The Machine, SZA and Michael Jackson as part of her influences. In ‘Beautiful Heights’, Francine Belle displays not only her exceptional vocal talents, but her thoughtful lyric-writing too; the lyrics, “Lucky lovers we’re riding on the sky above us / We’re shedding all our earthly anchors / The only way is up,” are poignant and uplifting and mirror the mood of the song’s layered vocals that flawlessly fall over one another. Her sound incorporates strong and soaring vocal melodies comparable to the work of soulful pop icon Solange Knowles, combined with a quirky aesthetic and sound similar to Sia. Francine Belle is the musician writing pop music that transcends the everyday optimism of pop songs that have come before it; instead, she transforms pop into high art using intelligent song design, beautifully executed vocal lines and exciting rhythms.

Francine Belle’s ‘Beautiful Heights’ sees Belle deliver a powerful vocal performance only complimented by her dazzling music video and stunning wardrobe changes. As far as debuts go, this is strong, making us very excited to see what the future holds for this up and coming superstar!

Francine Belle’s Upcoming Shows:
29th October: The Hospital Club, Covent Garden, London
