Building on the success of last years "Naked" single, Stephanie Ryann has spent much of 2025 firing out a string of successful singles and with "Where The Light Stays On" she seems set to see out the year in style.

The second single to cross the #TEAMw21 desk from UK/Dutch based Pien is entitled "Totally Honest", and once more, she creates a sound that immediately grabs the attention and makes you want to hear more. The opening to this one is two stringed instruments, one a guitar, the other a mandolin maybe, it makes for a hypnotic sound over which Pien lays an equally intriguing dreamy vocal

Finally getting its day in the sun is the new single from Brooke Law "Freak On". This song written some time ago with The Shire's Ben Earle, until recently, had proved more elusive than the Loch Ness Monster - it would make an appearance at a full band show and then you might not hear it again for months. Destined to appear on Brooke's forthcoming album "Naked Heart", it has been held back waiting for the right moment - that time is now!

A rendezvous with Emily Mae Winters is never a date to be declined, it is fully three years since her last appearance at the same venue and during that time our favourite teacher come poetry geek has released no new material. Tonight, she will come armed with a large batch of unrecorded songs that will make up her third album due to be recorded next year, arguably putting on her best show since the High Romance album launch. She will be aided and abetted by Jacob Stoney on gu

It is almost a year since #TEAMw21 met up with Macartney Reinhardt in Nashville, she hadn't put a foot wrong before that and every subsequent release since has seen her reputation and following grow.

Having dealt with one end of the family tree in her last single with a tribute to her son, Jenn Bostic has turned her attentions in the other direction for her latest single, "See You Now", with an appreciative nod towards her mother. Jenn is currently mining a deep seam of inspiration, and this is another classic in the making. With her mother now living with her due to her house being lost during the recent hurricane season, she is getting to share precious time that perhap

It's hard to put into words the feelings that seeing the news of a one-off reunion of the Worry Dolls brought. One of the few groups to call it a day, just as their star was seemingly never higher, with undoubtedly room for further ascension.

If memory serves #TEAMw21 well, it was a certain Amy Westney who first drew our attention to an upcoming band playing at that years C2C called Lost Hollow. It was to prove a good tip, and we would have great fun at The Bedford for their album launch for the excellent "Looking For Happy" which would turn into a splendid family affair. Sadly Covid put paid to a prospective tour with Rumer and since then it has been relatively quiet, with one half of Lost Hollow, Tommy Harden,
