Hannah Sanders & Ben Savage New Album Ink of the Rosy Morning Out on 1st April 2022
of the Rosy Morning which is scheduled for release on 1 April 2022Following the success of Before the Sun (2016) and Awake (2018), both produced by David Travers-Smith in Toronto, the duo opted for an altogether different approach for their new record.
They
hired a quiet old schoolhouse by the sea, sat in the dining room, lit the fire,
opened a bottle of wine, set up a few mics and played. Nothing pre-arranged. No
big ideas. No pre-production. No thought of releasing anything from it. Nobody
else around. Simply playing the songs they’ve known for years; savouring all
the energy and emotion they carry.
Since
emerging in 2016, Hannah & Ben have been defying all conventions of style,
genre and compartmentalisation. A touch of ‘Americana’, yet quintessentially
English. Traditional, yet contemporary, with their individual writing style.
Playful and instinctive, they make music with such panache and natural
chemistry it makes perfect sense.
Their intimate, pin-drop single microphone live show has captivated audiences across the UK, US, Canada & Asia, sharing the stage with the likes of Sarah Jarosz, Martin Simpson, Seth Lakeman and Gretchen Peters.

Fender Announce the Classic Vibe Squire Starcaster
Fender Announce the Classic Vibe Squire Starcaster
The Starcaster broke the mold of semi-hollow guitar design with its offset body shape when it was introduced in the ‘70s, offering versatile sounds and out-of-this-world styling for the most adventurous players. The Classic Vibe Starcaster is a throwback to the original Fender model, creating massive tone courtesy of its dual Fender-Designed Wide Range humbucking pickups. Player-friendly features include a slim, comfortable “C”-shaped neck profile with an easy-playing 9.5”-radius fingerboard and narrow-tall frets, as well as a stop tailpiece for solid tuning stability. This Squier model also sports a unique painted headstock contour, 1970s-inspired headstock markings, rich-looking nickel-plated hardware and a slick vintage-tint gloss neck finish for an old-school vibe.

The Little Unsaid - Full Band Tour October 2022 + Festivals
The Little Unsaid is a musical vehicle for the diverse music of
songwriter and band leader John Elliott. Born out of the English indie-roots
scene of the 00’s, The Little Unsaid have built up a solid committed following,
received glowing reviews and gained the attention of national media since
signing with UK independent Reveal Records (home to award winning international
artists such as Joan as Police Woman, Lau, Kris Drever and Eddi Reader).
In 2021 The Little Unsaid released two albums: the full band
& experimental “Lick The
Future’s Lips” followed by a contrasting, intimate solo winter
music reflection “December
Songs”.
Both albums were played on radio and reviewed with acclaim, and
awarded Album of The Month by Folk Radio UK (the number one roots media
platform in the UK). The band has frequently collaborated with renowned
producer Graeme Stewart (who alongside engineering for Radiohead has produced
Oscar-nominated film scores by Jonny Greenwood) and have received several
awards for their work including: the Steve Reid InNOVAtion Award (PRS
Foundation & Gilles Peterson, with mentoring from FourTet) and Help
Musicians Emerging Excellence Award.
The band have played a variety of major Festivals (including
Glastonbury) and their recent UK tour was described as “a soaring piece of sonic beauty…one
hell of a show” (MusoMuso). During the Covid lockdowns, John
created the Relay album project, collaborating on two covers albums with
artists including Billy Bragg and Frank Turner to raise money for the Music Venue
Trust.
