Angèle has teamed up with Caroline Polachek and SebastiAn on a new track called "Love Triangle", and this thing sounds absolutely massive.

Kings of Leon have released a new song called "My Whole World", and this is a much softer side of the band than the huge stadium-rock sound most people probably associate with them.

Fontaines D.C. have released a new song called "Tongue", and this is definitely one of the stranger tracks I have heard from them. The first thing that strikes me is the bass. It sounds warped, slightly broken and almost like it is constantly falling out of tune. I mean all of those things in a good way.

Holly Humberstone has released a new song called "Too Cute To Be Lonely", and this is probably the most instantly catchy track of the bunch.

There is a point on U2’s new single “Silencio” where the band seem to stop worrying about sounding like U2 and simply decide to have a good time.

Royal Blood have released a new track called "Swallow The Bomb", and there is basically no introduction here. The song just starts attacking you.

Anderson .Paak and Cordae have released a new song called "A Good Day", and you can pretty much tell what kind of mood they are going for within the first few seconds. The track samples "Lovely Day" by Bill Withers, which is obviously a fairly brave song to touch considering how iconic the original is. Thankfully, they handle it really well.

I didn’t know a great deal about Cammy Barnes before seeing him perform in the Empress Ballroom at The British Country Music Festival, but by the end of his set, he had firmly established himself as one of the highlights of the weekend.

CHINCHILLA’s new single, ‘Viper’, released today takes the uglier side of heartbreak and turns it into a full-blown pop spectacle. It is angry, dramatic and unapologetic, with the kind of energy that feels less like a song about getting over someone and more like the moment you finally admit just how furious you actually are.

Seven years after it first began, The British Country Music Festival has reached the end of its Blackpool chapter. Before the festival heads to Manchester and becomes Song City in 2027, the 2026 edition brought one final weekend of country and Americana to the Winter Gardens, with a lineup that stretched from established names and international artists to emerging talent and local representation.

For an artist who has spent almost three decades being closely associated with one of the biggest pop songs of the 1990s, Natalie Imbruglia has every reason to play it safe.

As part of the Blackpool Live series of gigs, which has brought a great selection of bands to the town, The Enemy arrived at the Winter Gardens last Friday to a crowd that was clearly ready for a lively night.

Tiny Habits have released a new song called "Love Ruins Everything", and I did not expect this track to sound quite like this. The group is known for these gorgeous vocal harmonies and fairly delicate folk-pop arrangements, but this song basically walks into the room wearing sunglasses and a glittery suit.
