Headsound: Kate Tempest - Lonely Daze

I've been so caught up listening to this album I almost forgot to feature it on the blog. Everybody Down is a standout album of the year so far. It's a musical, literary masterpiece by Kate Tempest, a young poet, performer and writer bursting with energy and creativity. Lonely Daze opens with a killer hook but listen to the lyrics and the vivid characters they portray, then listen to the rest of the album to hear their stories in full.

I was looking forward to seeing Kate Tempest this weekend at the Hammer and Tongue national final due to be held at the Albert Hall loading bay. It's been postponed till September now but hopefully Kate will still be joining us.

Headsound: Luka Lesson - 5th Season

Australian artist Luka Lesson blends music and spoken word on this track from his new album Exit. He recites lyrics assuredly over an abrasive mix of loops and beats on 5th Season the first track on the album out on 1st of May. Sounds like Australia's answer to Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip. I look forward to hearing more.
