‘Tumble Bee’- by Laura Veirs 

This latest offering from Veirs comes after her recent personal entry into the world of motherhood, inspiring her to investigate the history of children’s music and consequently record Tumble Bee, a collection of traditional American folk songs refreshed and reinterpreted for the youth generation. 

Featuring My Morning Jacket’s Jim James, Bela Fleck and Basia Bulat amongst others- the album delivers tonnes of good old-fashioned childish fun in bountiful quantities. 

Simplicity is key here. The album evolves with a gentle and soothing tone throughout.  

It's a playful, uncomplicated and easily driven record for music lovers of all ages to enjoy. 

Fancy Face

Fancy Face is the new single from Katie & The Carnival. It's a candy coated musical all sorts delight. 

Fronted by Katie Richardson, who transcends the stereotype of the quirky female vocalist, with her remarkable stage presence, soulful voice and joyous wit. The bands over all music soundings are soulful and harmoniously driven with influences from folk, pop, jazz, rock and a little bit of dark cabaret! 

The pr notes read: Katie creates the kind of smokey jazz that Norah Jones might make if you snuck a load of vodka in her diet coke! Upon listening to this I can't argue with that. 

Download it now, its fun, quirky and eccentrically delightful. http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/fancy-face-single/id477541028
