One of the most promising songwriters off the Canadian soil, Andy Shauf returns these days with “Norm”, a meticulously crafted interlay of stories revolving around the central, eponymous figure.

"Industrial Salt" by the Luxembourg artist is leading this week's selection of exciting newcomer sounds that also includes music by Grand Pax, EUT, Neu Sierra, Lizzie Reid and other buzzing musicians.
