What does it take to not only become unburdened by your past, but to embrace its many contours? Sister Ray, the project of Edmonton-born songwriter Ella Coyes (they/she), was conceived out of necessity; a self-designed vehicle built to examine trauma with unflinching honesty. Armed with a voice that soars and scrapes in equal measure, Coyes converts first-person recollections of big, complicated love into universally potent allegories, and the result is an unyielding, spacious, and commanding form of indie rock, rooted in the folk tradition, that transforms unvarnished, interior reflections into a generous public offering.

PROFESSOR GREEN SHARES THE NEW SINGLE ‘DANCE LIKE A TORY’ – WATCH THE VIDEO HERE
‘Dance Like A Tory’ is Professor Green’s manifesto in song, a playful prod at the privileged politicians who believed that they’re too important to follow the very rules that they made. Propelled by the kind of hook that takes just one listen to stick firmly in your consciousness (“Ain’t a party, it’s a work event… Ain’t a rave, it’s a work event!”), it’s full of the Professor’s razorsharp rhymes: “Nobody cared about care homes, they should’ve all been in their homes / Instead they were all ’round Boris’, all getting down with their Doris’.”
