August starts with new songs and announcements from some of my favourite singer/songwriters. Ready for some videos?
My beloved Basia Bulat has to come back (hopefully very soon) with a new album. While we wait for it, here's a new song (although we were lucky to hear in Barcelona), premiered with a stunningly simple yet brilliant video (courtesy of the talented people from Yours Truly). Great as always.
BASIA BULAT "IT CAN'T BE YOU" from Yours Truly
After many listens, I'm still undecided about this one. "Do You Remember" is the first single from Ane's Brun forthcoming album "It All Starts with One", that will be out this autumn. The video (first chapter from a short film based on her music) is pretty curious. Have your say!

I told you it wouldn't be the last time I would thank Eardrumsmusic. Gospel Music is not a new album, but a project from Black Kids' Owen Holmes. His first release, on 2010, was the EP “Duettes”, featured lovely duets with Shirley Simms (Magnetic Fields), Darren Hayman, SoKo and Cassie Ramone (Vivian Girls) and Tracyanne Campbell from Camera Obscura on this delicious song, "Automobile"!
The fantastic and criminally underrated Irish songstress Gemma Hayes released her fourth album, "Let It Break", at the end of May. I finally had the chance of checking the record, and all I can do is recommend you to do the same. Emotional and intense tunes, like on this "Shock to My System" one of the gems of the album.
A couple of announcements to end the post. Another Irish lady, the lovely Lisa Hannigan has her new album finished and set to release in September. It's going to be called "Passenger". And last, Feist has confirmed her return after the huge success of "The Reminder". "Metals" will be out in October 4. And if you have artistic talents and feel like painting, you can change the colours of the album cover in her facebook page for special prizes....
