“Tragi-comic.Custard and Debbie and Lavene’s stock-in-trade, mixing Baxter-Dury like roughshod poetry with Robyn Hitchcock’s surrealist flair. Flute-looped Little Bird reveals a more delicate balladeer.” MOJO

“Disneyland In Dagenham is endearing as a whole, glorious in parts, hilarious in others, and in its darkest corners, heartbreaking. Lavene’s singular voice and relatable concerns infuse the album with an honesty and kindness that’s rare, and leave the listener glowing with both admiration and empathy.” Under The Radar

“It’s world-class. All killer, no filler. An instant classic. Every song is a 10 out of 10.” Dangerous Minds

~ Praise for ‘Sweet Anhedonia’ ~

“A standard bearer for Southern Gothic Americana noir, Ben de la Cour has the striking ability to craft a compelling narrative with a novelist’s skill in just a few lines.”

“Ben de la Cour pulls no punches and always manages to dig deep into the most battered firmament with a voice that sounds like the American Heartland witnessed through the window of a car going 80 mph.”

“Ben de la Cour is a prodigious storyteller, the vividness of his lyrics as powerful as the darkness that they possess.”

“On Sweet Anhedonia, Ben has refined and enriched the sweet, savage way he pulls your heart up through your throat with his quietly tragic characters in devastating scenarios… It is somehow gruesome and viscerally moving, a fine line he manages to amble along with nary a stumble.”

~ Praise for ‘Dancing on the Edge’ ~

“This is the sound of someone bearing a torch.” Bill Callahan

“Dancing on the Edge is singular and strong enough to put Davis in league with some of the very best American songwriters of the past and present.” Uncut (9/10)

“Davis’ talents are immense: vivid imagery and clever one-liners pulling epiphanies from the sacred, mundane, and profane” Rolling Stone

“In his investigation of the human spirit, Davis has learned to embrace worry and wonder as companions for a restless heart.” Pitchfork

10/06/2024

Kelley Stoltz releases 18th studio album ‘La Fleur’ — out now digitally, records hit the stores this Friday

How can it be that this feels Stoltz’s finest work yet? The artist does not let up. ‘La Fleur’ ignited the office on the first spin and every play since. Heart rendering, head spinning psych-pop songwriting mastery at its very, wholesome, best. Further enhanced by guitar guru Jason Faulkner [Beck, St. Vincent] and his signature dashes of colour throughout the release

To say Kelley is an inspiration in an understatement. Without Kelley, there would be no Outsider Artists. Post-pandemic we nearly gave up on being an agency in favour of owning a trout farm in the highlands, though, Mr. Stoltz’s words of encouragement brought on a second wave, one that the artists and us have been riding ever since, so thanks is due to Stoltz.

‘La Fleur’ has been receiving high praise across UK press [did you see that 6-page Shindig Magazine feature?] and Marc Riley’s been playing out on BBC 6 Music. Take a listen and catch Kelley and band on tour next month!

Recorded in Abbey Road Studio 2 on Earth Day 2024, ‘Earth Day Blue’ is the 14th studio album release from Nick Harper, the wildly talented and much loved singer-songwriter. With John Leckie in the producer’s chair and Tchad Blake mixing, the album is a flash mob of high calibre talent assembled for a few hours’ collaboration in a very special space.

But this was not the first time Nick and John had been in session together in Studio 2. It was way back in 1973, in the very same room, that Nick was given his ‘big break’ in the world of music. The duo first ‘worked’ together when Nick, aged 8, recorded his first ever songs with John whilst Nick’s father Roy was recording his own seminal album ‘Lifemask’ with Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin. So the circle has been squared off and the journey is complete!

‘Earth Day Blue’ is peppered with acoustic ear-worms written with a Studio 2 Beatlesque approach of short, immediate songs — out Friday, 27th September

The Reds, Pinks & Purples ~ Still Clouds At Noon

Recorded as part of the same daydreaming puzzle as Unwishing Well, Still Clouds at Noon brings out the slowcore/sadcore elements that drift through The Reds, Pinks & Purples’ melancholy catalog. Donaldson names ‘90s hometown San Francisco acts such as American Music Club and the more obscure Timco as pivotal to his guitar playing and development as a songwriter, both of which shine bright here. The slower tempo ballads on Still Clouds… often culminate in heavy fuzz drenched codas and showcase the more abstract poetic side of Donaldson’s lyricism. There’s an inherent pop-sensibility always at work though, with ear-worm melodies appearing over intoxicating circular riffs.

Formerly a Bandcamp only digital release, this black vinyl version is remastered and adds two unreleased tracks, one featuring Mark Monnone from Australian pop-legends The Lucksmiths on bass. Edition of 500.

‘Dancing on the Edge’ is an extraordinary debut, stacked with a deft, literate lyricism and yearning authenticity that sits comfortably over seven songs, the average length being 7mins +. No wonder the record’s USA release last year made many end of year lists and support from the likes of Bill Callahan…

Tough Love will be releasing the record in the UK on June 14th with a 1/500 double [clear] LP pressing

A special thanks to our promoters, programmers and record stores for working with us to get this tour together in pronto time and to Glenn of RPPs for the introduction. We can’t wait to hear Ryan’s work live in a few weeks

This is the sound of someone bearing a torch.” Bill Callahan

“Dancing on the Edge is singular and strong enough to put Davis in league with some of the very best American songwriters of the past and present.” Uncut (9/10)

“Davis’ talents are immense: vivid imagery and clever one-liners pulling epiphanies from the sacred, mundane, and profane” Rolling Stone

“In his investigation of the human spirit, Davis has learned to embrace worry and wonder as companions for a restless heart. His place at the edge may be perilous, precarious, and occasionally lonely, but it’s got one hell of a view.” Pitchfork
