Marika Hackman – Bath is Black

Check out the latest single from her debut mini-album, That Iron Taste. This Brighton singer-songwriter’s hypnotic folk songs often grab your attention as soon as you hear the first few notes.

Live: The Knife in Stockholm

Concert date: May 16, 2013 Location: Hangaren Subtopia, Alby (Stockholm) Stockholm hipsters queuing in a field: an odd vision to open the evening. Tonight everything happens in a shed, in Alby outside Stockholm, by a lake – unless it is a bay, you never really know in Sweden. Anyway, the sole remoteness of the thing is part of the hype. […]
