Margo Cilker is the softest and warmest Americana available today. Her latest is called Little White Cross and it is simply wonderful.

This record should be regular in your 2026 rotation. 

Troye Sivan: She's The Best

Troye Sivan has an absolute corker of a record out called She's The Best. It's filled a pomp like vibe of oozy power. Evident in the opening (and title) track.

Greta Van Fleet: Palace For The People

Greta Van Fleet. Just saying those three words brings a lot of swagger. Not many bands make music like they used to. Palace For The People is the latest from the Frakenmuth, Michigan lads and it kicks all kinds of ass. 

One of my faves...

The magical stylings of Remi Wolf are back with Mud, an absolutely stellar record in her lexicon of joy. The sing a long vibe is present straight away.

Title track...

Soft Cell has released their final album with the death of co-founder Dave Ball last year. Danceteria is an 80s fused gem of a record and a fitting tribute to a master of 80s pop.

Opening track...

Johnny Marr: The Age Of Everything (Album of the Week)

Johnny Marr is a legend. Every single one of his solo releases since The Smiths broke up is fucking spectacular. His latest is called The Age of Everything and it is bloody wonderful.
