 Mullingar’s Collette Brady-McEntee is a singer that has drawn comparisons to stars like Adele and Freya Ridings, and with her latest single, So Long, Solo, Collette gives us a masterclass in emotional storytelling in a heartfelt tribute to the late lyricist Joy Solomon.
A classically trained pianist and vocalist, Collette brings a lot to the table as she caught the ear of legendary producer Ian Curnow (Kylie Minogue, Take That). They have crafted a record together that explores human connection and the strength it takes to find your own tribe. It is a tale of human connection that everyone can identify with on some level. We were lucky enough to delve deeper and find out what the track means to Collette and her plans for the future. CONTINUE READING  As Fozzy mark 25 years as a band, they’re heading back out across the UK for a run of dates that reflects both their longevity and their connection with audiences beyond the obvious major cities. With the tour about to get underway, we sat down with guitarist and founding member Rich 'The Duke' Ward to talk about how the band has kept their creative spark over two and a half decades, and much more.
CONTINUE READING  Whitelands photographed by Edward Sogunro London Shoe-Gaze band Whitelands return this Friday with their new album Sunlight and Echoes, their first since the success of their 2024 record Night-Bound Eyes Are Blind to the Day. With just days to go before they head out to Paris to kick off their tour, we were lucky enough to chat with vocalist, guitarist and founder member Etienne Quartey-Papafio about the record, the tour and the future of Whitelands.
CONTINUE READING  Electronic music rarely finds itself inside rooms like the United Nations. When it does, it is usually discussed rather than performed. Gadi Sassoon’s Live at the UN takes that narrative and shifts that balance by placing sound, gesture and human presence directly into a space more often associated with policy, diplomacy and abstract debate.
CONTINUE READING  In 1994, Nailbomb delivered Point Blank, a record that fused industrial noise, punk-metal rage, and raw political fury into something that felt like it could implode at any moment. Three decades later, that same fury feels not just relevant, but necessary. Max Cavalera is taking Nailbomb back on the road with a vengeance, joined by a lineup that draws from Soulfly, Pig Destroyer, and Repulsion, and the message is just as sharp as it was back then.

 The Caribbean and Americana / Country style music are not typically associated with each other, could you tell us who your main influences are and how you came to love and play this style of music?
Yes, I really don't know many folks at all in the region who listen or write songs in the Americana/Country genre. But there may be a few I'm not presently aware of. But sometimes it really feels like I'm in a scene of one. NATIONAL TRASH is my debut solo album release, but I've had nine previous albums with two bands I once led. Those were Rock n Roll albums, with influences like The Clash and The Rolling Stones . Once I went on this solo trip three and a half years ago , I just wrote an album checking out my singer songwriter elements, at the heart of it all is by main influence Bob Dylan, but then I went deep into the Country and American Songwriters like Hank Williams, Waylon Jennings, Gram Parsons , Johnny Cash, Emmylou Harris, Loretta Lynn and the present brilliant ones like Sierra Ferrell, Jaime Wyatt, Hayes Carll and James McMurtry . Basically I said, ok, how can I turn myself on ?.. how can I not bore myself to death ? |
