TEN TONNES announces second LP ‘Dancing, Alone’ + shares lead track ‘Monday Morning’
Since releasing his self-titled debut album via Warner Bros, Ten Tonnes – aka Ethan Barnett – has undergone a multitude of changes both in his life and in his music. The four years between the debut record and its follow-up, served as a recalibration for the songwriter. He went independent, moved out of London, started therapy, focused on the introverted part of his brain, and has returned with a mature and majestic second album about reflection, growing up and carving a different path for himself.
The fifth full-length studio album from the UK four-piece was conceptualised by Django Django co-founder and powerhouse Dave Maclean, buzzing on ufology as “a way to go beyond”, to bring new voices, new rhythms, new experimentation into play, and effectively to deconstruct the band’s identity.

Radiohead’s Philip Selway Shares New Single “Strange Dance” / Album Out Feb 24 via Bella Union
Philip Selway releases his much-anticipated new album, Strange Dance, on February 24 via Bella Union. Having previously shared videos for the singles “Check For Signs Of Life” and “Picking Up Pieces”, Selway today shares the atmospheric title track from the album. Commenting on the track Selway says: “Strange Dance had a very long gestation as a song. In its original form, it was the first piece from the album to be written, over 20 years ago. It was also the last song to be completed on the album, with the lyric taking shape in the final recording session. The strange dance I write about refers to the contortions we all perform as we try to balance seemingly irreconcilable elements of our lives, and the relationships that help us navigate this uncertainty.”

Leah Marie Mason Takes Us to Church in Music Video for Prophetic Single “Holy Water”
Leah Marie Mason’s visuals for her new single “Holy Water” are understated and washed in deep darkness, a departure from her previous sweet, nostalgic depictions of the girl next door that have endeared her to hundreds of thousands of listeners.
