Czech Republic | Thom Artway - "Caroline"

BRAND NEW

Czech singer Thom Artway is finally back with a new release. And honestly, we couldn't love it more. Not only because the song is absolutely lovely, in all senses, but also for its motive.

On the last weekend of August, Thom got married, and he decided to release a song he wrote for his newlywed Karolina. "I proposed to her with the song 'Caroline'. So releasing it the day after the wedding was a logical step. It is not so much about announcing this event, but rather about the joy and gratitude of crossing our paths".

United Kingdom | The Struts feat. Albert Hammond Jr - "Another hit of showmanship"

BRAND NEW

The Struts have just release a new song. For it, they've gathered with American guitarist Albert Hammond Jr., of The Strokes. And we cannot stress it enough: "Another hit of showmanship" is a song which offers the pure, raw power of high-quality rock 'n' roll.

"'Another hit of showmanship' reminds me of being at a club night called Ramshackle years ago at the O2 Academy in Bristol, where they'd play bands like The Libertines and Razorlight and Scissor Sisters, and of course The Strokes", says lead singer Luke Spiller. "I hit up Albert out of the blue and told him, 'We've got this song, and I'm so excited to see what you would do with it'. As soon as he got his hands on it, he took it to a whole different level – it really just shows why he's so brilliant at what he does".
