Best of October 2023

At Moment's Edge

Just Let it In

Didn't Want You To

Debut EP from Edinburgh five piece, waverley.

Not Hoping

Don't Take It Personally

‘The Wailers’ (released 1st October 2023) is the first single from UK-based singer-songwriter, Man With A Corduroy Heart. 

‘The Wailers’ is a lofi-folk song, layered with jazz guitar and recorded using cassette tapes. It’s a song about becoming a dad and trying to get the baby to sleep through the music of Bob Marley. 

It’s peppered with Marley references, as the opening verse tells:  ‘Your little baby face brings out the sun / Your hand holds my finger and I think Is This Love? / But then something turns and clouds start to rain / And if I think that you’re gonna stop crying I’ll be Waiting In Vain’.

While Man With A Corduroy Heart is a new artist to 2023, the man behind it, Ryan Davies, isn’t new to the scene. By day Ryan is an audio engineer: “Unlike my day-to-day work where artists want perfect and pristine mixes, here I wanted to do one-takes and embrace unwanted noise like hissing and pops, go back to using cassettes and let the song do the work rather than the mix!”
