March- New and Underexposed

Good morning world,

It’s been a while to say the least… So life progress report- I’m just coming into the final month of my MSc in Quaternary Science at Royal Holloway, which means I’m meant to be hard at it with my dissertation, essentially the biggest piece of work undertaken in my life, to date. Naturally, I’m filling this period with anything but work, meaning the musician in me is thriving and more keen than ever to pick up the guitar. 

Life is a funny old bean and has proven so these last few months, which can only be described as ‘out of the blue’. Love, loss and life have all been of poignance; a mixture of events that you can’t help but mull over in one of those “am I doing life right?" moments. 

Anywho here are the fruits of all this codswallop:

 

Memento Mori

Overgrown, gagged, bound and sold for gold, two by two towing our brothers downstream to the mold. My mother said, we’d best do what we’ve been told, god knows I love her like marling and others, but I don’t know. Life but a moment powered by the sun, live for the living repose is to come. By the barrow-load, dreams discarded ‘cos they’re old, prudence has met his match and he’s worth his weight in gold. So ride your tune, step up and own the room. Eyes for another, surprisingly good at seeing you through. Life but a moment powered by the sun, live for the living repose is to come. Summer 2013

All Aboard

Debut track from the Mercury Prize-nominated Sam Lee's second album The Fade In Time, released March 2015. 

Winner of the Songlines Europe Award 2016, The Fade in Time is very much a 21st century album. Impassioned and hugely ambitious in scope, it is a major statement from an artist and group who extend the borders of traditional English/Scottish/European music beyond national boundaries to encompass Bollywood beats, Polynesian textures and contemporary classical music.

FAT WHITE FAMILY - WHITEST BOY ON THE BEACH

Storm the Palace are a London and Edinburgh based 5-piece who play cinematic, baroque and folk-inflected pop. In March 2016, Storm the Palace will embark on their first tour of the United States, playing a handful of dates in Northern California and the Pacific Northwest.

* March 9, 2016 @ Hotel Utah, San Francisco, CA with Virgin of the Birds and Anju's Pale Blue Eyes
* March 10, 2016 @ The Wandering Goat, Eugene, OR with Virgin of the Birds and Dalembert
* March 11, 2016 @ The Starday Tavern, Portland, OR with Virgin of the Birds and S.S. Curmudgeon
* March 12, 2016 @ Conor Byrne, Seattle, WA with Virgin of the Birds and the Foghorns

To celebrate the tour, Storm the Palace are releasing a new digital single, "La Lido / Cadillacs and Carousels" that captures the band's developing chamber pop sound. Their debut EP In Ruins came out in May 2015, receiving a flurry of blog coverage and radio play from the UK to New Zealand. They were featured on Tom Robinson’s BBC 6Music Introducing Playlist and Radio Scotland’s Vic Galloway described their sound as “magnificent” and their song writing as “epic”.

Praise for ‘In Ruins’:

"Magnificent"
Vic Galloway (BBC Scotland)

"This is parlour music, albeit with a radicalised subtext. It conjures up a pleasing image of the group members - two women and three men - politely asking permission before reaping destruction on various symbols of oppression." Whisperin and Hollerin 

"Artfully mixing elements of folk tradition to create a heartfelt style of pop." 
The Oxford Student

“Change is good and necessary, but sometimes the motivation behind it is highly questionable”: Roxanne de Bastion, singer/songwriter and arts community advocate introduces her new song 'Wasteland', with a cry championing the revival of music cities and creative hubs.

About Roxanne de Bastion:
‘Wasteland’ is taken off of de Bastion's Seeing You EP, which is out on Hidden Trail Records now and available on iTunes, Amazon and Spotify.

Roxanne de Bastion was born and raised in Berlin, and is currently based in London. Since the release of her debut album “The Real Thing” in 2013, Roxanne has made a name for herself across Europe as “a real mover and shaker in the independent music scene” (Ruth Barnes). Following in the footsteps of the 1960's greats (think Dylan, Nyro, Mitchell and a touch of Beatles psychedelia), de Bastion is on the forefront of the new Singer/Songwriter generation, alongside Daughter, St. Vincent and Regina Spektor: someone with something to say and a musicality to match.

Wasteland Tour Dates:
In promotion of her EP, and presenting the ideas expressed in the think-piece above, Roxanne de Bastion is going on a UK headline tour in April. See her in these grassroots music venues across:

Wasteland

Jeremy: “I’ve heard it said that we in the British Isles love an underdog. That might be true on reality TV, but in real life those who have no power and no voice are not really loved: they are persistently downtrodden, accused of ripping us all off or finding themselves pawns in a dated but ever-enduring class system that serves little purpose other than to keep the power predominantly in the hands of those who had the means to buy their way to success. Little room for a youngster growing up on an estate who may have fantastic ideas and the will and strength to develop them, but whose disadvantaged start in life - perpetuated by a deeply flawed and biased education system - will always count against them. We don’t have an equivalent of the “American Dream”, as imperfect as that idea may be in practice. Perhaps we need one.”

“Incredibly elegant and creatively insightful lyrics…delivers something standout amongst the thousands of other acoustic guitar singer songwriters.” Linda Serck, BBC Introducing
 
“Smart, engaging songwriting.”  - Lach's Songwriter's Cellar
 
“Matt Stockl's Charm is his delectable way with words, demonstrating on first encounter his musical out-pouring. It was clear to me that his creativity towards writing flowed naturally, giving us an array of poetical, hypnotising, witty and thought provoking lyrics. His words sustained a lingering resonance through his projection of song...from the word go I was pulled into the sea of words Matt provided...”   - Miff Morris, New Hellfire Club Glasgow
 
“Matt Stockl continues to charm his audiences with soulful and somewhat strange musical outpourings”  - thisisfeast.co.uk
 
“Poetic, throwaway vocals.”  Jack Hepplewhite, Mr. Blind Pig Promotions
 
“I have been told that it is quite rude to compare singers to other singers.  And to be honest, if it wasn't rude to do so, I'm not sure I would anyway.  Because I couldn't.  His dulcet tones, off-beat tunes and poetic lyrics have intoxicated me.” Music blog, ‘Life of Lu’
