Here's a quick rundown of some of the hottest music news for today, April 15, 2024! We've got new releases from La Luz, Hollow Coves, Alex Nicol, Jessica Wilde, and Goat Girl, plus tour announcements!
La Luz - 'News of the World'
I'll Go With You, Good Luck with Your Secret, Dandelions and Close Your Eyes, that's just a small number of songs that come to mind if I was to make a selection based on suggestion. I haven't heard if La Luz before but her album News of The World is tantalizing and heralds a change in the lineup after the departures of Lena Simon and Alice Sandahl and arrival of new member Audrey Johnson

ALEX NICOL - Reveals tender "Song For Franz" today
Final teaser of "Been A Long Year Vol.1 & Vol.2" out now
Not heard much from Alex Nicol in a while so for me Song for Franz is a nice little number to hear. I enjoy the softness of his voice, he just glides through the song blissfully. It's as though he's whispering in your ear and it just relaxes you. Beautiful number

Jessica Wilde turns the heat up ahead of forthcoming new album with soulful and soaring single 'FADE'!
I am just going to say it, I have heard quite a bit of Jessica's music and I have yet to hear a bad song from her. Fade is a med/fast paced single about learning to let go of addictions and finding inner strength to just move on. The rasping of Jessica's voice suites the mood of the tune.

Hollow Coves Release Fantastic New 'Nothing To Lose' Album
Brisbane folk duo 'Hollow Coves' create beautiful atmospheric folk music that certianly raises the hair's on the back of your neck, new Lp 'Nothing To Lose' is a mourish testament to their songwriting craft and is sonically fantastic, a real pleasure to discover.
Capturing the blue-sky ideologies and open sense of adventure that courses through their new album, new single “See You Soon” is a masterclass in their spacious acoustic songcraft.
Creating a pin-drop aura with chiming guitars and those glistening Gold Coast harmonies that Matt Carins and Ryan Henderson call their own, this latest single from the childhood friends is a testament to the unbreakable bonds and unforgettable memories we make in life. As they explain:
“So you have made a new best friend somewhere in the world and you’ve shared so many great memories with them. Your time together comes to an end and you go your separate ways. Life gets busy and your communication together gets more and more distant. Eventually, you forget to ever contact them or call them but you always have moments in your life that remind you of them or the memories you shared together. This song is all about this feeling and trying to encourage the listener to reconnect with those people. Just send them a message or give them a call and see where they’re at. I’m sure they’d really appreciate it.”
Said to be inspired by the works of Angus & Julia Stone (who the band would occasionally cover when they first started out), this tender song was written by Matt Carins with his wife Molly, before receiving the final Hollow Coves finesse with Ryan Henderson as they mapped-out their new album.
Recorded at Matt Corby’s Rainbow Valley Studio, the ARIA-winning producer and songwriter teamed up with Hollow Coves for the creation ‘Nothing To Lose’, their eagerly anticipated sophomore release.
Seeking to overcome the anxiety and burnout that accompany the relentless pace of the modern world, ‘Nothing to Lose’ is an album all about reconnecting with nature and re-learning to appreciate day-to-day life. Opening up a world of early morning surf trips on Australia’s Gold Coast, to getting lost in the expansive national parks of the American West, or even the slow-and-steady pleasure to be found in craftsmanship; the resultant album is one that explores all aspects of life and how we live it.
With recurring themes of gratitude, perspective and simplicity, Hollow Coves deliver 11 beautiful new songs of silver linings (“Milk & Honey", “Letting Go") and seeing family (“Photographs”), following your dreams (“On The Way”, “Let’s Go") and having faith to be yourself (“Harder To Fake It”, “Nothing To Lose"), and so much more.
Featuring the previously released singles “Photographs”, “On The Way”, “Milk and Honey”, “Letting Go”, “Harder To Fake It” and “See You Soon”, ‘Nothing To Lose’ will be released on 1 March, via the Nettwerk label.
In support of the new album, Hollow Coves are preparing for their biggest live shows to date, beginning with a UK and European this Spring. The UK and European dates are listed as follows:
