Following on from their wildly received third album Mama’s Boy, L.A. indie pop trio LANY drop new single Dancing In The Kitchen – their introduction to a forthcoming record expected to be released later this year.

Ambient and anthemic, Dancing In The Kitchen is the perfect song to celebrate the good times and party late into the night to. Easy on the ear and packed full of romantic nostalgia; LANY provide the perfect coming of age soundtrack to summer 2021.

I wanted the outer to sound and feel like I was playing this song alone in a Sunday school room with the door slightly cracked, and you were listening down the hall” – Paul Klein

ALBUMS

 

JOHN GRANTBoy From Michigan

Wonderfully peculiar pianist John Grant is back with sixth solo album Boy From Michigan and, as you would expect from the Anglophile from Buchanan, his latest LP for its extraordinary eloquence, witty observational prose and innovative idiosyncrasies talking issues as wide ranging as regional identity to gender constructs and

Enlisting remarkable fellow pioneering songwriter Cate Le Bon as producer, critics and fans alike are praising Boy From Michigan for is constant deft evolution and intricately crafted songs which pleasingly unfold from the deeply personal to truly epic masterpieces.

The latest single to be taken from Boy From Michigan is “Billy”; the closing track of the record which addresses what Grant considers a dangerous cult of masculinity; “’Billy’ is a song about how many men destroy themselves trying to live up to stereotypes of masculinity and how this manifests in countless ways.

MOTHER MOTHERInside

When Canadian indie rockers MOTHER MOTHER announced their upcoming album with not one but two awesome singles, "I Got Love" and "Stay Behind", we knew we were in for something special. And now Inside is out, it’s even better than we had hoped!

Taking inspiration from the forced isolation we’re all experiencing, Inside sees all that pent up creative energy exploding into fourteen raw and atmospheric electronic orientated tracks.

"The world stopped, and all the sudden I had a lot more alone time on my hands, which isn't necessarily conducive to songwriting. Usually, I like to venture out and find guidance from an external, interactive narrative — travelling, people, serendipities, etc. I love that process — it's almost like you're in collaboration with the world. But since that wasn't an option, I set about a different kind of travel, one more inward and personal, exploring different types of therapies, meditation, and journaling as a means to unearth songs from a deeper, interior place." – Ryan Guldemond

See Mother Mother smash it at two very special London shows at Heaven and O2 Forum Kentish Town during March next year!

Mother Mother tickets are currently available.
