…at least if you like to discover new music and emerging talents. But I guess that’s why you’re reading this article.

The Arctic Circle has teamed up with the label Humble Soul and recently released Outer Circle, a mini album for the correspondent concerts at Kings Place on the 11th and 12th September. The first of the Outer Circle series presents emerging artists from Bristol and Manchester:

Rozi Plain

The beautifully haunting voice of singer-songwriter Rozi Plain gives me goosebumps every time I listen to her music. It’s pure but somehow dodgy, her sound his full of hope and melancholy at the same time. Makes me want to go barefoot on a wet meadow. (photo: Tom Copps)

Francois And The Atlas Mountains

With his charming French accent and his snappy tunes, I guess Francois could even let sere flowers bloom again. So cute, it might cause diabetes. And if you’re a fan of Stereo Total you should absolutely check this out! (photo: Jeremy Benassy)

Eyebrow

I reckon this would be the sound of Miles Davis nowadays, if he was still alive. Not the birth of cool, but surely the rebirth. Amazing.

Denis Jones

Imagine John Martyn doing a blues tribal dance to bass driven beatbox rhythms with multi layered vocal sounds. That’s roughly speaking the sound of Denis Jones.

Homelife

What have Hawaii and Manchester in common? Probably nothing. But with their sunny folk Hawaiian influenced tunes, Homelife convinced me, that Honolulu and Manchester should be at least twin towns. It would make our world a little bit brighter.
