More than a month after the beginning of the Russian invasion in Ukraine on February 24th, the strikes of the aggressor continue to devastate the country. To raise awareness and continue to support the country - financially and culturally - we update our "With Ukraine" playlist in collaboration with local artists. This time with folk duo Tember Blanche.
The London dream pop two-piece Dahlia Sleeps kicks off our brand new 'Introducing' series with the release of their long-awaited debut "Overflow". The lush realm of their LP is enlarged by a handpicked selection of fine newcomer tunes in our accompanying playlist you shouldn’t miss out on.
Every Friday music fans are faced with the same burning question: What to listen to from the sheer endless sea of new albums, EPs and other releases? Don't worry, the NBHAP staff is here to help you with that. Our very own release roundup gives you a quick overview on the music that matters the most this week.
The Australian troubadour Xavier Rudd has been in the business for decades releasing his tenth studio album this year. Known for his lyrics advocating peace and a spiritual connectedness with nature, the artist is closely in touch with the Aboriginal communities of the country. Between admiration for the culture, questioning of the own roots, and uplifting the culture, the artist formed is own musical style using the Didgeridoo alongside his other instruments.
Hypes come and go, but rarely do they take such vigorous and consuming shape as on the self-titled LP of rising indie rockers Wet Leg. Ahead of their anticipated debut, NBHAP editor Andreas caught up with lead singer Rhian Teasdale to chat about their origins, existentialism and everything else that surrounds the release of their first full-length.
Holland Andrews is the latest part of the LEITER records family. We met the artist at their recording residency in Berlin a while ago to speak about their forthcoming EP Forgettings, working at Funkhaus in Berlin, and finding new voices and lights within.
Juanita Euka is not a Latin-American singer, she is not a Congolese singer, she is not a Londoner - she is all of those things at the same time and unapologetically herself. On her debut she explores themes of identity, cultural trauma, and pains of colonialism, while also empowering and celebrating Black female identity. Between Congo, Cuba, London, Peru, and Argentina, Juanita Euka walked us through her creative process.
More than a month after the beginning of the Russian war on Ukraine on February 24th, the strikes of the aggressor continue to devastate the country.
