Daniel Hex revisits moment I felt / BLUE with “serious” visual.A year on from moment I felt / BLUE, Daniel Hex returns to one of its standout moments with the “serious” video, bringing fresh focus to a track that captures the sharper edge of his sound.While much of the double album leans into introspection and slow burning emotion, “serious” cuts through with a more direct, rhythmic energy. The visual builds on that tension, adding a sense of immediacy and intention that reframes the track within the wider project.Hex thrives on contrast. Across the album, he moves between the hazy vulnerability…

Following the March release of their debut EP, Did You Have a Good Weekend?, Bryant dives into the “stupid story” behind their name, their penchant for satirising “bro-culture,” and the “mild homoeroticism” fans can expect from their live shows.Simple things first – where are you guys from?Me and Nath are from a little town in Oxfordshire called Thame, our drummer Luke is from High Wycombe and cosplays as a cockney. Bassist Rik…
The King of Ameripolitan is alive and well.The term legend is an overused description, but in Dale Watson’s case, it’s a perfect fit. Originally cutting his teeth on Houston’s honky tonk circuit and releasing his debut album Cheatin’ Heart Attack in 1995, he’s become an icon of outlaw country music and one of its hardest-working stars. 300 shows a year are not uncommon, along with an average of an album every 12 months. At age 63, Unwanted is his latest release and long-time fans will not be disappointed.Things kick off with the rollicking Willie Waylon and Whiskey a tribute to…
Joanna Chattman photographerChris Smither is one of the most consistent artists working in americana, having started playing music professionally in 1966 after he saw some pivotal artists playing live and feeling energised to do the same thing.

“Does humour belong in music?” a TV reporter once asked Frank Zappa. The musician was sufficiently bemused to use the apocryphal question for an album title. Chances are Stephen Bruner would also answer in the affirmative even if Apostrophe wasn’t one of his favourite records. Bruner’s fifth album released under the name of Thundercat, Distracted is chockablock with deft one-liners, surreal non-sequiturs, wry observations and goofball pop-culture references. In musical terms, he takes just as much delight in stylistic shifts, with Bruner and his trusty bass affably slip-sliding between genres however he sees fit. All the ideas and quips can…
