Alice Gun launches debut single – The Swimmer
Alice Gun records in her North London drinks cabinet and down a Lakeland mineshaft, distilling macabre, seductive songs from guitars, glockenspiel, double bass, cello, E-bow, accordion and a lopsided upright.

Superb debut from London indie newcomers. Jangly guitars, hooky pianos and a rousing lead vocal – British songwriting at its best.

When a man loves another man
April 20th 2009 sees the release of When a man loves another man, the debut single from The Mores. When a man loves another man is a honeyed spoonful of classic British pop twinned with the coming of age anthem Life after life on the flip.Read more
Lead track, 'Addicted to Drama', is an upbeat, piano-driven track featuring an anthemic chorus, delicious drumming (also c/o Rob) and some loquacious lyricism: simple, brilliant British pop, as it should be. Marr’s efficiency continues throughout his debut EP, particularly on the quirky, stuttering 'Safety Pins' and the wondrous ballad, the 'Lighthouse Keeper’s Cottage'.
Mr. David Viner returns with Ed Harcourt-produced single
After a 2007 spent touring with the White Stripes and recording with Ed Harcourt, folk anti-hero Mr. David Viner returns this month with the release of his new single ‘Go Home’. The Harcourt-produced track is a bittersweet duet with New York singer/songwriter and new Heavenly signing Jaymay, featuring Viner’s finger-picked guitar backed by a stripped-down band of cello, double bass and drums. ‘The most pleasingly woebegone song you’ve heard in ages,’ said The Guardian’s Laura Barton, who picked the track for her Friday Review Playlist. ‘A musical suicide note’ is how Viner describes it. Viner, 26, first emerged from a cloud of roll-up smoke in 2003, with the release of his eponymous debut album on the Hollywood Dim Mak label. His second album, This Boy Don’t Care followed a year later on Loog. Tours have included support slots with Spiritualized, blues legend Dr. John and, most recently, the White Stripes on their 2007 European tour. The Band are: Mr. David Viner (vocals/guitar), Alice Gunn (backing vocals/cello), Ben Swank (drums) and John Cheeseman (double bass). ‘Go Home’ is released on March 31 on Ambiguous Records – available on limited edition vinyl and itunes.Read more
