Kety Fusco restores a forgotten name with ‘FÜR THERESE’, her harp reinterpretation of Beethoven’s ‘FÜR ELI
Listen
For someone who has known the original version of this number I’m truly surprised that Kety has successfully pulled this off. She’s not just breathed new life into it, she’s made a newer version of it and let it run free. Incredible stuff
Luke Marzec releases warm soulful universally resonant anthem ‘Space To Be Free’
Listen – ‘Space To Be Free’
Up until now I haven’t had the pleasure of listening to Luke before but after listening to this little gem of a track I’m now officially a fan. The coarseness of Luke’s vocals carries quite a bit of energy and emotion, absolutely perfect for this record.
Catch Luke playing live in 2025:
8th August- The Barrel House, Totnes- ‘Something Good Out Of Nothing’ album launch.
9th August- Boardmasters Festival, Cornwall.
Lei Hope – ‘LITTLE SIGN’
I thoroughly enjoy it when Lei releases anything new, and he doesn’t disappoint. Little Sign is a corker of an R&B Soul track and he’s got that voice which has that raw energy and carries emotions like gentle spoken words in your ear. Beautiful track
THE WILD THINGS – Share Scorching New Single “Knock Down, Drag Out” – Out Now

I absolutely love this song. You may be forgiven for thinking it’s more of a teenage sounding anthem but it does have punk-esque energy. Knock Down Drag Out is about a seemingly unconventional wild love affair and wanting to tell everyone.
