Faye Webster: I Know I'm Funny Haha
<p><span><span>- Two years on from her breakthrough sophomore effort, <em>Atlanta Millionaires Club</em>, American singer-songwriter Faye Webster’s third album is her longest to date. Titled <em>I Know I’m Funny haha, </em>in reference to her self-assured demeanor, the <em>haha </em>thrown at the end is both a sly wink to her playful side, but also a question - a glance into the world of a songwriter giving herself permission to doubt, worry and wonder.</span></span></p>
SPELLLING: The Turning Wheel
<p><span><span>- Spellling<strong> </strong>only dropped on to my radar recently, but I feel as if I’ve always known her music. A combination of a multitude of art-pop influences of the last fifty years but somehow still uniquely herself, the Californian artist brings the music of witches, with a social message, to her latest record <em>The Turning Wheel</em>. Spellling’s exploration of the genre feels almost limitless as she tackles a plethora of sounds, all while never straying from her magical essence. </span></span></p>
