Composers: Jessica Pratt | Kamikaze Hearts | Laura Veirs | Malcolm Holcombe | Mediaeval Baebes | The Breath
Music from unknown territories on independent and alternative blues, folk and pop labels.
In this episode, special attention for Irish singer and flute player Rioghnach Connelly. With a appearance resembling a diva and a voice that can sound folk, blues and jazz, she makes for an extraordinary stage persona in England.
We also look at Malcolm Holcombe’s blues and Hiss Golden Messenger. Be surprised by the feel-good music of the Kamikaze Hearts, or the Medieval sounds of Mediaeval Baebes. Just relax, open your ears and discover these sounds.
