Ben Howard returns with his 4th album, Collections From The Whiteout, produced alongside Aaron Dessner (The National). The foreboding darkness that coated Ben’s second record I Forget Where We Were and thinly veiled its follow up Noonday Dream, isn’t so evident on Collections. These are songs written from headlines scanned, or news stories scrolled past, providing inspiration for a selection of vivid narrative snapshots – the death of amateur sailor Donald Crowhurst (Crowhurst’s Meme); Russian fraudster Anna Sorokin (Sorry Kid); the man who stole and crashed a plane in Seattle (The Strange Last Flight Of Richard Russell); and the dismembered body a friend of his father found in a suitcase floating along the Thames (Finders Keepers). Alongside them, the personal anecdotes from the same scattered period living between Paris, Devon and Spain. Yussef Dayes features, as does Kate Stables (This Is The Kit), James Krivchenia (Big Thief), Kyle Keegan (Hiss Golden Messenger), and Dessner. Thomas Bartlett, St. Vincent’s go-to pianist, and Rob Moose, a long-standing arranger of strings for Bon Iver, are also present. Long-term guitarist to Ben’s band, Mickey Smith (A Blaze of Feather), remains a reassuring constant. It’s a sonic adventure that continues this nagging suggestion that Ben is one of the UK’s most inventive and naturally talented songwriters. CFTW is his latest opus, and arguably his most fully realised to date.

With enough infectious melodies to sink battleships and the lyrical wit to make the savviest comedian flee to their offshore tax haven, The Ragamuffins are an energetic cavalcade of musical buccaneers ably captained by lead singer and songwriter David John Jaggs that captivate and enthral with songs to make sense of the senseless times we live in. 

Irrepressible soulful brass parts continually set fire to glittering guitar, pulsating piano lines, driving bass and unstoppable, pounding drums that simply will not let your feet sit still.

Across a long and distinguished career, B.Traits (Brianna Price) has proven herself to be a musical
artist of great versatility and panache. Equally comfortable commanding festival stages as she is
spinning jungle tunes in dark, intimate clubs, B.Traits backs up an enduring love of her craft with a
tireless work ethic and commitment to showcasing fresh, exciting music. From the raves of British
Columbia where she got her start, through a six-year stint at the BBC and onto more recent
endeavours such as booting up her alter-ego Baby T, Price’s passion has never wavered. In that time,
she’s distinguished herself through her exemplary production chops and DJ mixes of tracks which
orbit the groove-rich, percussion-driven poles of the hardcore continuum. Swing by any B.Traits set
and you’ll hear an eclectic mixture of deep, percussive, rolling techno grooves; find yourself at the
Baby T show and you’ll be plunged into the darkside strains of junglism and breakbeat machine-funk.
And for all her dedication to the dance, the more ambient-leaning releases of Price’s own Paciphonic
imprint demonstrate that by no means are her musical interests simply confined to the club.
