Album of the Week – 23/06/24

With the festival season in full swing, it’s time to focus on the live scene for our album of the week! Yes, of course, it’s Lankum’s wonderful 3-night stay in Vicar Street. Those who made it to In the Meadows last week will no doubt agree.

If you’re looking for some new sounds, you should give Terence Fixmer (The Paradox I) and Kronos Quartet & Friends (Outer Spaceways Incorporated: Kronos Quartet & Friends Meet Sun Ra) a listen… both of which can be found below!
