Hear Alan Ritson Talking To Chris Cleverly on Tuesday 11 May in Lincoln City Radio

Tune in to Fine Folk on Lincoln City Radio 103.6FM (http://lincolncityradio.com) on Tuesday 11th May at 7pm to listen to an interview with Alan Ritson speaking to Chris Cleverley.

Chris was born under a solstice moon. Since the hazy twilight of that urban, honeysuckle June, a trail of mysticism has followed in his wake.
From the fairy-light intimacy of concert venues, to the stages of world-renowned festivals, Chris has built a sturdy following in his 7 years touring the new British Folk Scene. Outstanding musicianship and warm delivery combine to underpin the infectious draw of his unique songwriting prowess.
Chris’s visceral lyrical style pays homage to the American greats, Elliott Smith, Paul Simon & Sufjan Stevens. His songs reveal the presence of an enduring human spirit within the cosmic loneliness of the 21st Century emotional landscape.

A Message from the Joe Strummer Foundation re JSF Runners - No Input No Output

 Were you aware that Joe took part in three marathons himself, London twice, and Paris?

This prompted us to set up JSF Runners.

An inclusive running community to chat about health, encouragement, fitness, wellbeing, nutrition, Joe, and of course, music.

We are aware that running is not for everybody and we want to make sure we only email you about the things you care about.

So unless you sign up via the JSF Runners - Are You In? blog post on our website, this will be the last email we'll send to you about it.

We respect your time and value your support.

From all of us,

Willow Smith Returns With Rock Single Featuring Travis Barker

Willow Smith has embarked on a new era with her new rock single, 'Transparent Soul’, featuring Travis Barker.

The 20-year-old singer-and-actress - whose parents are Hollywood power couple Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith - has unleashed her brand new single with the Blink-182 drummer.

Alongside a visual for the track, Willow - who has ditched her famous surname for her music - teased on Instagram: “I am so GRATEFUL and EXCITED to start this new journey ! Let the vibes commence. (sic)"

Willow's new single is her first new material since her 2020 joint album ‘The Anxiety’ with Tyler Cole.

To coincide with the record, the pair were locked in a box for 24 hours as part of an art installation at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in Los Angeles, which focused on anxiety.

Willow explained at the time: "We were like, 'Wouldn't it be so interesting if we could personify this experience? Starting from being scared and feeling alone and moving to a place of acceptance and joy? We understand this is a very sensitive subject. And, we don't want to be like, 'Our experience is the experience.' This is just us expressing our personal experience with this. "This is not so that people are like, 'Oooh!' This is for awareness. The first thing we're going to be writing on our title wall is something along the lines of: 'The acceptance of one's fears is the first step toward understanding.' So, then you know this is on something real. This is for a real cause."

The collaborators spent three-hour blocks exploring different anxiety-related emotions, including sadness, paranoia, and compassion and were muted during the performance.

The 'Whip My Hair' hitmaker said ahead of the event: "We might grunt or scream - it's going to be very primal."
