    Tunde Baiyewu, the soulful voice behind the multi-platinum-selling Lighthouse Family, returns with a new, intimate project, Tunde & The Troubadours EP 1, releasing today, Friday November 1st. The Four-track EP is the first in a special series that delves into Tunde’s love for singer-songwriter music, particularly inspired by the 1970s troubadour era. Reuniting with renowned Lighthouse Family producer Mike Peden, Tunde brings together a heartfelt collection of covers and collaborations with some of South Africa’s most revered musical talents. South African Roots and Global Inspirations Reflecting on his decision to launch the project in collaboration with South African artists, Tunde explains, “South Africa actually chose me! I grew up in Lagos, Nigeria, and listened to iconic artists like Sunny Ade, Fela Kuti, Hugh Masekela, Miriam Makeba. When a friend in Cape Town asked if I fancied doing a duet with a South African artist, a light bulb went off in my head.” The EP celebrates this musical heritage while embracing the international troubadour tradition that has long fascinated Tunde. He chats with Danny about the EP and a possible SA tour!

    Petit Biscuit joins Danny Painter to chat about his new single!

    Petit Biscuit is back in the spotlight with the upcoming release of his new album "Discipline". Having started his career at the age of 15, the French electro wunderkind has already conquered the world with his dream pop hits and captivating melodies. Following the worldwide success of his previous releases, the 24-year-old producer/songwriter/performer is now ready to unveil his new creations, with his own voice at the heart of his songs. Songs from the album have already generated over 600 Million TikTok views and the first single "You Don't Ignore" hit charts around the world including France, Canada, Brazil and Mexico. The focus single for the album will be '"Cruel Heart" which will be accompanied by a music video directed by Quentin Deronzier (Doja Cat, The Weeknd, Drake, Maluma, etc.) "I started composing Cruel Heart in 2019 during a trip to California. The vocal hook that makes up the chorus had been stuck in my head for several years. My friend Hugo, whom you know as Madeon, wanted to participate in the writing process. We often have late-night discussions on various topics: from the paradoxes of life in Los Angeles to our shared passion for investing in characters to write from their perspective. For Cruel Heart, we wanted to detail all the toxic traits we observe in many passionate romantic relationships. The darkness of the arrangement and the musical intention perfectly fit this theme." - Petit Biscuit

    Craig Lucas spills the tea on his 'Red Flag'

    Craig Lucas, the multi-talented singer-songwriter, is back with his latest single, ‘Falling in Love,’ a track that dives headfirst into the chaos of unrequited affection and the hilarity that ensues. This new release marks another milestone in Craig's impressive career, blending personal experiences with an infectious indie vibe. Craig explains the inspiration behind ‘Falling in Love,’ saying, “This song is my anthem to the chaos of chasing boys who are unavailable. I joke about needing heartbreak for inspiration, but this track proves it! It's about a particular boy I fell for after just one night together—a reminder of how embarrassingly fast I catch feelings, especially for those who aren't available in that way. There's something thrilling about falling for someone who's always just a bit out of reach. It's chaotic, it's painful, and if you step back, it's kind of hilarious. This track is me owning up to my messy love life. What’s a little heartbreak anyway?” Danny and Craig got really real about their 'Red flags'.
