Elles Bailey – 'Back To You' Single Review
Elles Bailey released, on Friday the 12th of June as stand alone single, 'Back To You', which has featured as a bonus track on the deluxe CD or her recent album, 'Can’t Take My Story Away'. It’s an emotional powerhouse of a single, I can understand why the decision was taken to release it as a single, if it doesn’t generate some serious airplay on radio, I’ll be very surprised. Elles has been steadily building a reputation as a brilliant live performer with a string of succes

Felix Green – 'Forgot To Love You' Single Review
Felix Green is a new artist, but his first single got radio play on at least 50 regional radio stations. This is the second single from his forthcoming debut EP. It’s a song about loss and how to cope with it while acknowledging how difficult that is to do. Felix’s vocals are almost soulful but with a hint of a rock rasp in there. The whole thing feels like it’s a highly emotional ride. What works really well is it sounds like both a song about romantic loss and the loss of s
