Rising South African singer-songwriter Will Linley has unveiled his eagerly awaited debut album Don’t Cry Because It’s Over, out now via Island Records. At just 22, the Cape Town native has already built an international following with his blend of emotionally candid lyrics and breezy, hook-filled pop — and this first full-length release captures both his youthful perspective and his growing maturity as an artist.

After returning earlier this summer with Getting Lost, his first solo release in eight years, Nathan Sykes has shared a second taste of his long-awaited new album Ultraviolet. The shimmering new single Butterflies is out now, with the full record due for release on 17th October.

Stutter house trailblazer BUNT. has teamed up with GRAMMY®-winning duo The Chainsmokers and GRAMMY®-nominated singer-songwriter Izzy Bizu on new single Spaces, out now via Arista Records. The high-octane collaboration lands as summer fades, offering a euphoric soundtrack built for both festival stages and late-night dancefloors.

Austrian producer, DJ, and pioneer of electro-swing Parov Stelar has announced details of his brand-new album Artifact, set for release on 14th November via his own Etage Noir Recordings (distributed by AWAL). The record arrives preceded by the sweeping new single Rebel Love, accompanied by a monochrome, late-19th-century-inspired video.

The late summer sun bathed Stanford Hall in gold as festival-goers wandered the grounds, the hum of distant stages blending with laughter and chatter. It was here, amid the vibrant energy of the festival, that I caught up with Sykamore, whose warmth and approachability are as inviting as the storytelling in her music.
