Emma‑Jean Thackray is a multi-dimensional wonder. She single-handedly wrote, recorded, arranged, and produced every element of her new release "Weirdo" in her South London flat. The result is a deeply personal, emotionally charged record that traces her journey through grief and loss. Alice Vyyvan-Jones spoke to the artist about the album and how music became a lifeline in the wake of tragedy.
With their debut album 'Schlagenheim', Black Midi prove that they are the most exciting band to come from Britain this year. NBHAP author Louisa met them in Berlin to talk about their album, touring, and many influences.
