Oliver Pesch – Shelly (Lollapalooza)
Oliver Pesch – Shelly (Lollapalooza)
Oliver Pesch is a singer-songwriter who grew up a stone’s throw from Rotterdam in the Netherlands. His songs are a mix of the old and modern American Westcoast sound.
This year, he’ll release his debut album Kid With The Dice. It brings together everything that drives him in music. The long-player will contain 11 fresh, critically thought out songs, accessible and convincing. Shelly (Lollapalooza) is Pesch’s second single. It has a seemingly carefree, vintage sound, but lyrically it goes deeper than that. As always, he shares his most personal stories with his audience.
Can you imagine a sound somewhere between The Jayhawks and Don Dixon? If that’s your thing, Oliver Pesch is your man!

Tiarni Hope – Salt In The Wound
Tiarni Hope – Salt In The Wound
Tiarni Hope is a 24-year-old singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, who works as a session drummer, among other things. On the Australian Gold Coast and in Brisbane, she built up a strong reputation with her powerful live shows. Now, it’s time to spread her wings.
Three years after her debut single Resist, she drops her second track. Salt In The Wound is a powerful song with influences ranging from country and blues to rock. Americana from down under, is that even possible?
About the meaning of the track, Hope says: “When I was writing this song, I felt like I was drowning under the weight of so many expectations, self-imposed or otherwise, that I couldn’t see a way out the other side. It became a way to tell myself that despite the doubts and the harsh words I harbored for myself, that I could pull through, even if better seems a ways to go.”
Salt In The Wound doesn’t only showcase Hope on drums and percussion, bass, guitars (both acoustic and electric), banjo, mandolin, and a plethora of vocal layers. It also features indie jazz songstress Hazel Mei on keyboards and organs, and slide guitar from producer Jared Adlam.

single track
Louis & The Shakes – How Badly Do You Want It?
Louis Antoniou (lead vocals), Jamie Lawson (lead guitar), Manny O’Donnell (drum) and Will Finnerty (bass) are Louis & The Shakes. They may be a London four-piece, but their music sounds as American as can be. In their infectious, hard-hitting songs they combine blues, Americana, and psychedelic indie-rock into a distinctive cocktail.
Up-tempo new single How Badly Do You Want It? is no exception to the description above. In other words: it’s one’s for fans of Queens Of The Stone Age, Arctic Monkeys and The Black Keys. It even adds a Long Train Runnin’ kind of funky guitar to the mix.
Front man Antoniou says of the track: “I’ve always had a bluesy streak and I think you can hear that in this tune particularly – the simplicity of the claps and the ‘tribal’ backing vocals in the verses. (…) Lyrically it’s all about keeping going, keep believing and never giving up. Instead of resting on our laurels [after COVID-19 came] we thought let’s get in the studio and record this album.”
How Badly Do You Want It? is the first single from the band’s upcoming same-titled debut long-player.
