Jack Garratt
Pillars
Multi-award winner Jack Garratt makes his very welcomed return with the announcement of third album Pillars - out August 15th on Cooking Vinyl. Marking his first full-length project in five years, Pillars is vibrant, emotionally-charged and a celebration of love, community, and self-discovery. Pillars is a testament to Jack’s evolution as an artist and individual. Following the release of his 2020 album ‘Love, Death & Dancing’ (#8 in the UK Albums Chart) - which arrived during the pandemic’s isolating grip - Jack found himself yearning to reconnect with his fans and his craft. This album is his answer: a bold, unflinching exploration of love in all its forms - romantic, platonic, and self-love - woven into a tapestry of lush melodies, infectious beats, and heartfelt storytelling. Fully self-produced and self-mixed by Jack, the album was recorded in his North London studio and features one collaboration with producer Johan Hugo (Self Esteem, Mumford & Sons). Pillars is a masterclass in artistic integrity and Garratt’s meticulous attention to detail - whether re-recording a single lyric or layering live instrumentation - reflects his unwavering commitment to his craft. Since winning the Brits’ Critics’ Choice Award and the BBC Sound Of poll in 2016, Jack Garratt has released two critically acclaimed albums, Phase (2016, UK #3 Album) and Love, Death & Dancing (2020, UK #8 Album). Known for electrifying live performances and a genre-defying sound, Jack continues to push boundaries with his deeply personal and sonically adventurous music, with Pillars being no exception. “This is the most authentic record I’ve made yet,” Garratt says. “I’ve gone through years of confusion and self-discovery to get here. With Pillars, Jack Garratt not only reaffirms his place as one of the UK’s most innovative musicians but also extends an open hand to listeners. “I want this album to be an invitation - a celebration where everyone is welcome.” Jack concludes. “No guest list, no barriers. Just come in, the water’s fine.

Paul Kelly
Fever Longing Still
For his latest album 'Fever Longing Still' which was recorded at Neil Finn’s studio Roundhead in New Zealand, he’s focused on the topic of Love. The fire of love. The pain of love. Love of family. Love entwined in memory and place. Love has always been at the heart of many of Paul Kelly’s greatest songs. To Her Door, How to Make Gravy, Careless, If I Could Start Today Again, Deeper Water, When I First Met Your Ma, Sweet Guy, Dumb Things, Firewood and Candles, The Oldest Story in the Book.Taken from a line in Sonnet 147 by Shakespeare, whose writing has thrilled and inspired Kelly ever since schooldays, Fever Longing Still is his first set of new original material since 2018’s Nature, and it delivers 12 additions to that superb catalog of love songs spanning more than 40 years. “Hello Melancholy, Hello Joy,” as one of the new songs says.As any of the best-loved songs from Kelly’s pen, “All Those Smiling Faces” is an emotional and vivid exploration of recollection, like peering inside the memories in a photo album. “Down the years the family face / Keeps jumping around from place to place / A look, a shape, a nose, an eye / That everlasting thing that’s never gonna die.” Taking inspiration from three of Kelly’s favorite poets, Dana Gioia in Finding a Box of Family Letters, Wislawa Szymborska’s Letters of the Dead and Thomas Hardy’s Heredity. First appearing as a banjo-led version on 1992’s bluegrass album Smoke, “Taught By Experts” also surfaced as an acoustic guitar song on the Live, May 1992 album and took on yet another form on the soundtrack to the TV series Fireflies. “I have been circling that song for years,” Kelly says. “We thought we should try it with a chiming electric guitar part, and when we did that, we knew that was it.” That guitar part nods back to “Leaps and Bounds,” a love song to Melbourne, from the classic 1986 album Gossip.Among the newly-penned tracks, “Harpoon to the Heart,” is the kind of song which might have been written any time in the past 100 years. “Dan had an idea for a guitar part where he played his line then put a harmony line on top of it the way Chet Atkins or Les Paul and Mary Ford would have done,” Kelly says. “It has a quirky, playful spirit to it, which earned its place on the record. That one was written quickly and ‘Houndstooth Dress’ came out in one go. For others we went right around the block,” Kelly says. “There has been a long gap since the last album of new songs,” Kelly says, “and I realize now that this record is a bit like Gossip, an album with a long gestation where the songs are all quite different to each other in style.” Like Gossip, Fever Longing Still is an album driven by a band in peak form.

The Jordan
Nowhere Near The Sky
Indies and high street retailers exclusive LP is on 'clear' coloured vinyl.Dutch singer and songwriter Caroline Van der Leeuw is back - with a new name, a new sound, a new mission. Emphasising the depth and breadth of her artistic transformation, Nowhere Near The Sky (produced By David Kosten - Bat For Lashes, Everything Everything) is The Jordan’s extraordinary, game-changing debut album, a new chapter that comprehensively rewrites Caroline’s story as former singer of Dutch pop group Caro Emerald. Gone is the jazz, the swing, the Latin rhythms, the rockabilly, the heavily stylised wardrobe. In their place: total candour and unvarnished truth, vocals purer and more powerful than anything she has recorded before, trip-hop and folktronic textures that wrap her voice in magic and mystery, and songwriting that, after years of doubt and repressed feelings, finally pulls back the veil.
