Happy Glasto peeps! We did a cover of #BillieEilish Billie Bossa Nova - with plenty of steel pan, check it out! #BillieEilishGlastonbury Sugarcane youtube.com/watch?v=oHr0LL…

Sometimes only Bobby Womack really hits the spot - he's right up there, his singing, arranging, guitar playing - all maximum yum youtube.com/watch?v=Uyt106…

I don't think I played a note on this Mr H & The Library album closer OR appeared in the video. However, I DID go on the adventure that inspired the song. A lavely Heath video from Carl Wilkinson and what a beautiful song from MrHudson youtube.com/watch?v=JtEumm…

Keep hearing a lot from folk feeling lost in the abyss of unrelenting awfulness in the world. Tell me about it, but also: join a party, a union, a campaign, an association, get organised, don’t feel helpless, steal back your agency. It *will* make you feel better.

#ExileonMainStreet The Rolling Stones Mick Taylor & Bill Wyman both argue they played bass on "Shine A Light". Listen to the alternate version - surely this is non-bassist Taylor playing bass, and album version is Wyman. I am piqued by this minor injustice youtube.com/watch?v=SOP6sm…

I always find #BillWithers EXTREMELY easy to like - a wise and funky old owl, the lyrics always on point - Bill and his band are killing it on this one #SongOfTheDay youtube.com/watch?v=TYO0Hf…

The new album by The Smile is, as you would expect, lovely, melancholic and haunting. See what you think of the opening track - I like! Thom Yorke youtube.com/watch?v=4rDaqG…

New solo single from me out on Friday...

Lamont Dozier of the great HDH songwriting champions. It was apparently important to their success that Lamont was constantly heartbroken. This one's an irrestible tune from his solo 70s, love it! youtube.com/watch?v=9mWPL4…

Wow, Sugarcane's producer Raphael Mann has been busy! Here's another lovely solo single from the main Mann - which appeal to the nature lover birdwatcher in me. Don't stop here - also check out his wonderful album of shoegaze covers with Silver Panda Band! Maree Choie

Gilberto Gil at 80: ‘Bolsonaro has a retrograde worldview, an opposition to any advance’ theguardian.com/music/2022/jul…

Lovely to see Google celebrating Steelpan today! #GoogleDoodle There's a whole lotta steel pan on our debut album "Cat's Eyes". Check this calypso - it's inspired by Jean Rhys' novel "Wide Sargasso Sea" but from Coco the Parrot's perspective youtube.com/watch?v=HLc9WU…

Late to it, but very much enjoying #Ramy on Amazon/Starzplay. Brilliant writing and beautiful performances, especially from Hiam Abbass who was in the wonderful #SuccessionHBO .

Some songs are like best friends. If you ever feel down, they're there, bringing you joy, reminding you of your happy place. Yes, I DO like this song, maybe you will too... youtube.com/watch?v=zdtN8v…

What d'you think of the #ElvisMovie? I really liked how psychologically creepy it was - caught in a trap. Reminded me of #theshrinknextdoor which despite a soggy middle, had some compelling relationship sadism. Elvis' gilded prison at the top of the Vegas hotel - yikes

Oh man, #LamontDozier gone. Beyond the peerless HDH run (wow), he's got quite a few solo beauties, especially this one. A legend. youtube.com/watch?v=Grltqf…

Some tropical Xmas vibes for you, with a beautiful vocal from Molly Graham! Sugarcane youtube.com/watch?v=kgKF14…
