Pulling off a whole album circling around the theme of motherhood coming from a male artist is - quite frankly speaking - exactly what we need in 2019. Devendra Banhart may be one of the few contemporary male artists who are able do that with a great deal of sensitivity, warmth and openness. His latest work 'Ma' combines all of these characteristics beautifully while approaching the topic in its full spectrum.
Alex Turner and his band mates recently ended their four-year long hiatus with a pretty special sounding album. Despite the endeavours in easy listening territory their live show is still a pretty solid rock and roll affair. But that might just be a snapshot after all.
