some musical recommendations ...

As it gets colder and darker and Christmas looms, I find myself spending more and more time on the computer, discovering new artists. So I thought I'd share some of them with you :)

Richard Walters - My personal favourites are Elephant in the Room and We Have Your Head. Richard's music really gets under my skin. It comes back to me hours after I listen to it.

Merz - Try Lucky Adam.

First Aid Kit - Two young Swedish teenage sisters. They do a fabulous cover of the Fleet Foxes' Tiger Mountain Peasant Song.

Luke Slott - Luke used to front a wonderful Irish band called Melaton, who sadly broke up before releasing their first album. Luke is a phenomenal pianist.

Florence and the Machine - Dog Days are Over is fantastic. Her voice is astonishing.

Dandelion Wine - New York band. Have a listen to A World Completely of our Own. What a voice he has. A touch of Bruce Springsteen and Rod Stewart.

Happy listening ... x

(sooo close to Christmas now ...!)
