Celebrating the first anniversary of their latest album, Stereo Mind Game, Daughter announces Live at Middle Farm Studios, a 7-track filmed performance. The session sees the trio of Elena Tonra, Igor Haefeli and Remi Aguilella return to the intimacy of Middle Farm Studios near Dartmoor, England – where much of Stereo Mind Game was recorded – to perform those songs live for the first time, including the singles ‘Be On Your Way’, ‘Party’ and ‘To Rage’.

B.B. King is not only a timeless singer and guitarist, he's also a natural-born entertainer, and on Live at the Regal the listener is treated to an exhibition of all three of his talents. Over percolating horn hits and rolling shuffles, King treats an enthusiastic audience (at some points, they shriek after he delivers each line) to a collection of some of his greatest hits. The backing band is razor-sharp, picking up the leader's cues with almost telepathic accuracy. King's voice is rarely in this fine of form, shifting effortlessly between his falsetto and his regular range, hitting the microphone hard for gritty emphasis and backing off in moments of almost intimate tenderness.

Larkin Poe's new album "Bloom" sees the dynamic sister duo venturing further along on their evolving musical journey with a collection of songs that resonate with introspection, authenticity, and a profound connection to their roots in American music. Produced and largely co-written by Megan, Rebecca, and Tyler Bryant, the album marks a significant evolution for Larkin Poe, reflecting a synergy that extends beyond mere musical partnership. Already hailed for the sincerity of their songcraft, the Lovell sisters now place an even greater spotlight on their gift for storytelling, delving deep into personal narratives with universal themes of self-acceptance and individuality against a backdrop of contemporary blues and rock influences. With their distinctive blend of masterful instrumentation and soulful harmonies, each track unfolds like a chapter, with lyrics that wind deeper and deeper towards the heart of Larkin Poe.

Described by his teacher, J S Bach, as “a musician of distinction, a player of the keyboard, violin and lute and a proficient composer”, this second volume of Keyboard works by Johann Ludwig Krebs demonstrates his diverse compositional style that represents a significant sea-change in musical taste of the time.

Explore new paths with each album. A love for composition, rearrangements and jazz standards. Complicity and a good dose of energy.

Bahamas, my island, my home…I’m walking by the sea listening to the wind blowing while the coconut trees sway.

As I sat down to write these liner notes, I looked at the song list of the album. I noticed that seven out of the nine pieces were written in 2021, the year my mother passed away.

"The Rod Stewart Album" was Rod Stewart's debut album, originally released in the US and later in the UK under the title "An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down". The album made it onto the US Billboard 200 chart and features singles "Street Fighting Man", "Dirty Old Town" and "Handbags and Gladrags".

Wenn die Tage kürzer und die Nächte kälter werden, ist man auf der Suche nach Balsam für die Seele.

In January 2019 he made his debuts at the Paris Philharmonie with Orchestre National d’Ile de France, performing Prokofiev second violin concerto under british conductor Jamie Philipps, and appears regularly at major international venues, the Kennedy Center, Alice Tully Hall, Wigmore Hall, Moscow Tchaikovsky Hall, Tokyo Bunka Kaikan, Salle Pleyel, Cité de la Musique and Théâtre des Champs-Élysées among others.

Featuring 15 distinctive sessions, each offers a rich tapestry of rhythms and tempos.

Rod Stewart first embraced his appeal to the middle of the road way back in 2002 when he recorded It Had to Be You, the first in a series of explorations of the Great American Songbook. Given those albums, it's no great surprise to hear Stewart sing with an orchestra on You're in My Heart: Rod Stewart with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. What is a surprise is that he's hopped upon the orchestral overdub bandwagon, letting the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra glop on strings and horns over original vocal tracks for such hits as "Maggie May." Clever guy that he is, Stewart contributes a couple of ringers – including a duet with Robbie Williams on "It Takes It Two" – but those only wind up illustrating how stilted and stiff the overdubs are.

The Munich specialist for early music and artistic director of the Inter-national Gluck Festival in Nuremberg, Michael Hofstetter, is making his debut as guest conductor of the Bavarian Radio Chorus.

B.B. King's 1969 album "Completely Well" contains one of his biggest hits, a signature song of his career and his first Grammy winner, The Thrill Is Gone. The album, called "adventurous" by Rolling Stone, was produced by a young Bill Szymczyk, who would go on to produce six albums for the Eagles including Hotel California.

Although a favoured student of J.S. Bach, Johann Ludwig Krebs didn’t see any substantial success in his own lifetime. More recent assessments have discovered a highly educated, enlightened and open minded musician who was clearly highly accomplished as a performer, demonstrating a fascinating synthesis of Baroque, Galant and Classical forms.
