Italian Renaissance
When we think of Italy it’s hard not to mention the word Passion, for Italian people are passionate in just about everything! Well known for being leaders in Art, Fashion, Food, Football and keepers of Traditional Values, it seems they are born with the emotion surging through their veins. But what I’ve noticed recently is…

Motown Dream by Vahimiti
I love, love, love the debut album ‘Motown Dream’ by Italian soul singer Vahimiti. Having heard her sultry vocals backing up Mario Biondi, I’ve been looking forward to Vahimiti stepping from the shadows and producing her very own album. ‘Motown Dream’ is a real bad-ass debut and it’s no wonder considering the talent she has…

Last year singer and musician Melissa James played a series of gigs in London and Paris, in aid of a charity which tugged at her heart-strings – the Small Steps Project. Her target was to raise £1000 but I can report that the total raised was a whopping £1823! “…considering I had no plan other…

Signs by Kaz Simmons
October 2013 saw the release of Kaz Simmons fourth album ‘Signs‘ but unlike previous offerings this album isn’t a jazz one.

Journey of a Woman by Rajdulari
The first Musicvein album review of 2014 is by the beautiful and staunch Rajdulari. Since her debut ‘Honeywine‘ Rajdulari has been relentless in making the 2014 follow-up ‘Journey of a Woman‘ and what an album she’s crafted. Where ‘Honeywine‘ left off musically, ‘Journey of a Woman‘ seamlessly picks up but you won’t find the same…
