Country music talent @kalieshorr embraces a grungy sound on new single Amy; a rock song in the best ‘90s tradition. Honest and brutal, based on feelings of both hurt and anger, it contains great one liners.

It's this week's Carte Blanche Music Wildcard! https://bit.ly/CBMkalieshorr

London-based duo @ghgwmusic blend an eclectic mix of influences from indie, punk, hip-hop and pop.

Their debut single Love Hangover (no cover) combines spoken word flows with punchy drums, animated guitar riffs and a walking bass line. https://bit.ly/CBMghgw

. @TheRoopBand represent Lithuania at the @Eurovision Song Contest with a very strong track. An electro-pop tune, consistsing of equal parts @depechemode and @sparksofficial. The bridge even has @kraftwerk influences in it.

Douze points! https://bit.ly/CBMtheroop
