Arab Strap have released new single ‘Aphelion’. It’ll be available on vinyl with another song, ‘Flutter’, in March. “These two songs were written, recorded and mixed during the sessions for [2021 album] ‘As Days Get Dark’, but as much as we loved them, we couldn’t find a place for them on the final album”, explains Aidan Moffat.

Poppy has released a song about her cat.

Shamir has released new single ‘Reproductive’.

Ahead of the release of their new album ‘Where Myth Becomes Memory’, on 4 Feb, Rolo Tomassi have released new single ‘Closer’. “We wanted to show a completely different side to the record by releasing this single”, says the band’s James Spence. “The album is full of lighter, more gentle moments to contrast the darker side to it and none more so than this”.

Aldous Harding is going to release a new album. It’s called ‘Warm Chris’ and it will be out on 25 Mar. Here’s first single ‘Lawn’.

Keeley Forsyth has released new single ‘I Stand Alone’. “The song uses words as murmurs in a moment of realisation”, she says. “Strengthening autonomy and protecting human dignity, even at its most dark and surreal. It’s a survival song in essence”.

Yumi Zouma will release new album, ‘Present Tense’, on 18 Mar. Here’s new single ‘In The Eyes Of Our Love’.

Crows have released new single ‘Slowly Seperate’. Their new album ‘Beware Believers’ is out on 1 Apr and the band will be touring the UK the same month.
