Laurel: Debut Album, UK & European Tour

Rising UK star LAUREL has announced her incredible debut album 'DOGVIOLET', out August 24th on Counter Records. Leading with infectious debut single 'Lovesick', the evocative and effortless 12 track LP sees LAUREL showcase her sublime vocals and raw guitars.

Recorded without glossing over the imperfections and driven by her personal lyrics and stirring melodies, every track on the album was written and recorded in LAUREL's home studio in East London. It was then taken to Gizzard Studios to be fed back through a reel-to-reel tape recorder, re-capturing the organic tone that is prevalent within her breathtaking live shows.

Titled after the flower, 'DOGVIOLET' is a deeply personal exploration of the bittersweet feeling of love. LAUREL says "I wrote these songs at home often locking myself away for periods of time in order to capture the true mania that comes from love; although a beautiful feeling, it can often feel a lot uglier."

Following a huge 2017, including a UK and European tour with Oh Wonder, two sold-out UK headline tours, and appearances at The Secret Garden Party, Live At Leeds, Outlines Festival and Golden Leaves Festival, Laurel will play UK & European Dates this autumn.

First single 'Lovesick' sets the tone for the album, with open, sparse production revealing LAUREL's effortlessly emotive voice and the vintage warmth of her guitar playing. Other album highlights include spellbinding live favourite 'Life Worth Living', the infectiously wounded 'Adored', spikey punk pop hit 'Same Mistakes' and bitingly intense track 'Sun King' showcasing LAUREL's mesmerising and intense vocals, seeing her singing 'What is life, but a dream'.

Already receiving support from Annie Mac, Zane Lowe, Steve Lamacq, Huw Stephens, Phil Taggart, Apple Music, Spotify, The Guardian, Wonderland and I-D Magazine, as well as partnerships with Burberry, Ellesse, Levis and Vans, 'DOGVIOLET' follows LAUREL's incredible 'Park' EP and her captivating Spotify Live EP, released in 2017.

TVAM: New Single 'Psychic Data'

Under the guise of TVAM, producer Joe Oxley returns with a portion of modern-day paranoia. It is in 'PSYCHIC DATA' he seeks to define everything from abandoned meanings to subconscious desires; a world in which information seeps under your door and pools by your feet. You'll let it in, under your skin.

A Cronenberg body-horror where guitar refrains are beamed from the highest telecoms tower and vocals swoon like a siren-call for the disenfranchised. With juddering rhythms, warping basslines and melodies which melt like a Calippo on hot concrete, TVAM delivers his message straight to the subconscious. Mixed by the steady hands of master Dean Honer (Moonlandingz, I Monster, Add (N) To X), the machine is made flesh.

Young Fathers: New Video 'Toy'

On 9th March 2018, Young Fathers (Alloysious Massaquoi, Graham 'G' Hastings and Kayus Bankole) released their third album, 'Cocoa Sugar', via Ninja Tune. The record - produced, written and recorded by the band throughout 2017 - is Young Fathers' biggest commercial and critical success to date. Featuring the singles 'Lord', 'In My View' and 'Toy', 'Cocoa Sugar' builds on the widespread acclaim of their two previous full length records; 2014's Mercury Prize winning 'DEAD' and 2015's 'White Men Are Black Men Too'.

Today, Young Fathers release the video for their latest single, 'Toy'.
The video sees the band reignite their creative relationship with renowned Stink Films director Salomon Ligthelm, who approached the trio with the video concept after hearing the track. Ligthelm previously collaborated with Young Fathers on a video for 2014's 'Mr Martyr'.

"The tone of the track is so visceral and abrasive, which I think marries the political subject matter perfectly. I honestly just really like the idea of seeing dictators behaving like spoilt little children - pissed with the world, because things aren't going their way. Looking at the political climate of our time, I'd say truth is certainly stranger than fiction."

'Cocoa Sugar' is available on CD, LP, limited LP and via all digital services. It features a striking visual aesthetic, with cover photography from Julia Noni and creative direction from Tom Hingston.
