Moses is here.


Sumney is one man folk orchestra and loop pedal genius and this video is all the proof you need. The man has some pipes, with amazing silken vocals that range from a soulful croon to his hauntingly beautiful falsetto. He was discovered while interning at TIME magazine in the USA and has been touring with some of my favourites this year including Junip and Beck! 
Big things to come I hope!

His Sound Cloud is more than worth a look also!

Doillon Daze


I, like almost every other person with an admiration of women with timeless beauty, intelligence and substance, adore Jane Birkin. However, it's her youngest daughter Lou Doillon that I have been obsessed with recently. I've always loved her edgy, boyish style and am always tempted to re-cut my fringe every time I see a picture of her perfectly unkempt mane.

Having one of the most famous and beautiful women in popular history as your mother must make finding your place in life pretty daunting, but luckily Lou settled on being a musician.

Lou's haunting yet smooth vocals and thoughtful lyrics make her debut album Places so unique and the entire record is a testament to her charm and ability.
I can't wait to catch her next year on her visit to Australia for the ever so stylish french lifestyle festival, So Frenchy, So Chic!

CASUAL LISTENING



A new collaborative record from Jack Carty and producer Casual Psychotic comes in the form of an awesome EP called "The Predictable Crisis of Modern Life". I think the concept of teaming such different artists together is pretty cool and the result is too. 

The record consists of Carty's signature smooth vocals and thoughtful lyrics but is also layered with a dynamic mix of electronics and acoustics that create a new sound that is different, but equally as pleasant to listen to.



The Ep artwork is rad too, a great refection of the juxtapositions going on in the record I think.
