I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Rae Morris a number of times, she’s adorable. Cold, however, is my favourite track so far, if this is a sign of what to expect from now on I am very excited x

Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy: Hard Life
After being introduced to Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy on a desk swap earlier in the year I’ve been slowly working my way through his records and falling in love with track after track. The very same colleague who introduced me to the ‘prince’, reminded me of this absolute beauty this week, and I can’t stop listening. Go on, fall in love with it x
Paolo Nutini: Iron Sky
My flat is sat between two building works at the moment, this song is helping me drown out all the banging (so much hammering!). I can’t wait for the album, everything I’ve heard so far is promising an absolute treat x
George Ezra: Let It Snow
Merry Christmas folks x
Ane Brun: Rarities
We all know artists love playing a good cover at a gig, sometimes they slip one onto a single as a b-side, or even as a sly album track, but what if an artist had performed so many stunning covers that they could actually get away with releasing a double CD of them? Yup, Ane Brun’s pretty something.
The record in itself is seriously beautiful and perfectly Ane Brun. She makes every song her own and some of them, yup, I’m going to say it… so much better than the originals. The below are my absolute favourites x
Jóga (Björk cover, live at the 2010 Polar Music Prize)
Ain’t No Cure For Love (Leonard Cohen Cover)
Hozier: Take Me to Church
Excellent song, excellent video x
Mononoke: Alice
I love it when classic children’s books get mentioned in songs, especially when done as beautifully as this Alice in Wonderland delight. Mononoke has created such a gem of a song x
