Video: Garvie – Life’s Good

19/09/2022 Graeme Smith

I’ve been following London-based alternative pop artist Garvie since the start of this year when he came to my attention through his infectious track What Did I Do. It was followed by the politically-charged What Do You Want. Now he’s back with a new one. An ironic take on the topic of fun. It’s called Life’s Good.

New Music: Paul Moody – Time Bomb

18/08/2022 Graeme Smith

Paul Moody, who also records as Moody Jr, has featured on the blog a few times now. He first hit my radar last autumn through his folksy, autobiographical album Songs of Youth.
