Connie Converse was a folk-music genius. Then she vanished She made stunning, forward-thinking songs in the 1950s, but was barely known – and aged 50, she disappeared. Now, with a new re-release of her music, she's recognised as a trailblazer.

"I'm inspired by her to tell a full story or present a deep feeling with only a few words..."

Greta Kline from Frankie Cosmos contributes to this great piece on Connie Converse for BBC...

Hannah Lew, 'Hannah Lew'

Debut solo album for this member of Cold Beat and the much-missed-to-me Grass Widow. Those prismatic post-punk/synth-pop strains are still here, but channeled into pure pop songs. Perfect late night music.

Our reissues of Rachel Love's 2021 and 2024 solo albums are out today! They're both packed with lush, dreamy pop that sits comfortably between 60s sunshine pop and the mod-ish sounds of groups like Saint Etienne and Broadcast. Ace!
