  • The Wandering Hearts Take on Mark Ronson’s – Nothing Breaks Like a Heart

    Mark Ronson’s hit song featuring Miley Cyrus – Nothing Breaks Like a Heart captured worldwide attention and of those captured was British Country Group, The Wandering Hearts. The song already had an Easy Country feel to it, which made sense for the group to strip it back to a guitar led track, over-layed by their…

  • Throwback Thursday: Portishead – Glorybox

    Released in 1995, Glory Box by Portishead is a real sultry classic. Searching for equality in a relationship and yearning to be a partner’s everything – this song cries out for a man to let a woman have a moment of taking charge. I just love the ethereal tempo, with the ravishing guitar striking through,…

    Milly Pye is back with new mischievous and catchy song ‘Boys Are Drugs’, with an equally thrilling honey-trap video.

    Last year Musicvein caught a ripple from Oxfordshire band Little Brother Eli.

Embarking on the release of their first Live Album this month, Musicvein had to catch up with the band…

  • Review: Lettuce – Everybody Wants To Rule The World

    Thinking of the salad, lettuce is a wispy piece of air in desperate need of dressing or an assortment of ingredients to warrant being on your plate – so what on earth were the Boston Jazz Funk group thinking when they decided to name themselves Lettuce. Their name may be a bit wet and wimpy…

  • Review: Tshegue – The Wheel – A Subliminal Message of Faith

    Loving the new thumping track ‘Wheel’ by French-Congolese singer Faty Sy Savanet aka Tshegue. With a hypnotic, electronic beat – the equally heart-racing accompanying video shows the Club Etoile Rollers – some as young as 13, careering around the streets of Kinshasa, fearlessly hanging on to the backs of vehicles as Tshegue flows “Just keep…
