On Sunday evening (29th January), I attended Canadian artist,  Sykamore  debut London show at The Camden Club which was amazing, and one I enjoyed beyond words. Photo by me  Sykamore opened her set with  We Were Alright  which saw her crisp gorgeous tone highlighted that had audience members listening closely to the songwriting from Sykamore thanks to nostalgic lyrics. Sykamore gave a chat beforehand for her next song,  Record High  which she wrote with Jeff Cohen who was on that line up that evening, it was Sykamore variety of vocal tones that made me smile as the room was silent with the audience members listening closely. Up next was a new song from the talented artist was  Emotional  which showcased Sykamore incredible songwriting with very thought about lyrics that had me hooked due to the way the song was put together. It was beautiful how everyone was listening and enjoying the opportunity to hear new music. California King  is a song that I absolutely adored with Sykamore's

This Friday (3rd February) will see British country singer-songwriter,  Louise Parker  release her brand new single, Table For One. Photo Credit:  Meglensphoto  (instagram) Table For One  sees Louise's crisp vocal open the song beautifully with lyrics that are relatable to many of us. The songwriting is gorgeous and the story within the lyrics are great especially the catchy ones which happen to be the majority of the song. The change in tempo of the instrumental of Table For One is a brilliant move as it allows Louise to show what a fantastically talented artist, she is. The chorus features emotional lyrics that for me got me thinking as I saw myself relating to certain things throughout hearing the lyrics but the vulnerability from Louise and that I caught myself diving into was one of those moments that I am grateful to have had when I heard this song! These relatable songs are incredible, allowing for tough conversations to be had. As Table For One heads into the second verse I

Emmerdale is soon to be hit with a lot of drama from blackmail, cruel deception, and forbidden, secret liaisons are about to send shockwaves through the village with some serious consequences for the Dingles it appears.  And I for one am very exciting for this drama. You have to love a little Dingle drama! With Paddy Kirk feeling incredibly lonely after discovering the truth about his wife, Chas Dingle's affair with Al Chapman.  I have really felt for Paddy, can see a lot of vulnerability coming through from the character.  Paddy could be forgiven when he finds himself falling in the arms of his ex-wife and good friend, Mandy Dingle. However, as Paddy opens up to Mandy where they take a trip down memory lane seeing old passions are reawakened. Will Mandy's support help Paddy or see him going down into further depression?

Talking about her relationship and wedding plans with her now fiance, Daniel Osborne following his Christmas proposal, Charlotte said:  "Daisy and Daniel are in a really good place, they are very excited to plan their wedding… Well, Daisy is very excited to plan the wedding!

Today (Friday 13th January) will see US singer-songwriter,  Priscilla Block  release her brand new single, Me Pt 2. Photo taken by me from her headline show 26th August, 2022 Me Pt. 2  has a guitar instrumental as well as a different kind of style being bought in from Priscilla very nostalgic. Me Pt. 2 opens with Priscilla's soft vocals allowing for honesty and raw feelings being bought up, especially as many of us listeners will have felt at one point during a relationship the way that Priscilla describes - when a past relationship has broken down and the person moves on before you do, leading wonderfully into the chorus and more emotional moments.  Me Pt. 2   continues with even more memories it's like you partly want them to be happy but not 100% because it's not with you and honestly that feeling is very much valid. With the final verse bringing the song together perfectly. There is something so special and raw about Priscilla's vocal throughout this song that makes

First Time Flyers are made up of Tim Prottey-Jones, Vicki Manser, Jake Morrell, and Poppy Fardell who are set to release their debut single, Happier on next Friday (20th January). Photo Credit: Ryan Lavender Happier  starts with an upbeat instrumental that I have to say is the perfectly instrumental for their debut single. The first verse sees Jake take on the lead vocals with lyrics that got me thinking right from the start that carried on throughout the whole song making it a rather special and unique song. On the run up to the chorus and when the chorus came in, Vicki, Poppy and Tim's vocals blended with Jake's perfectly showcasing what an incredibly special and unique super group of artists they are! The lyrics are one that are rather heartfelt mixed with their sensational range of vocal tones between them. The uniqueness within this group is somethin

Next Friday (20th January) Irish singer-songwriter,  Mairead will be releasing her brand new single, Back Another Day. Photo Credit: Cuan Hawkner Back Another Day  starts with a soft instrumental that I have to say supports the song brilliantly throughout. The first verse sees Mairead's soft vocal at the forefront due to the vulnerability within the lyrics due to the nature of the songs hurt which continues into verse 2 in a way that is beautiful as well as being relatable to many listeners. The chorus features many beautiful moments thanks to Mairead gorgeous tone. The hometown feels got me a little emotional but the fact that moving on is ok even if it can be a little overwhelming. It was as the chorus was repeated the more I caught myself realising a bug change is coming in my life, and that everything I feel is normal and valued. I have to admit the bridge is stunning and the lyrics are heartfelt allowing for another side of Mairead to be shown. As Back Another Day ends the sof

Throughout 2022, Emmerdale had aired many storylines that have kept me guessing as well as lots of audience members, and even allowed for me to think outside of the box, and more you only have to ask my friends about this. This year has seen Emmerdale take us fans on a rollercoaster of a year with many brilliant storylines, as well as some that have left us questioning, but one thing reminds is that it got us talking. Liv and Vinny Dingle's Wedding  happened on 24th February with Liv and Vinny deciding to elope to Daventry for their wedding in the registry office allowing for many of us viewers to get what many of us viewers wanted thanks to the delivery as well as many emotional, beautiful moments to be shared especially throughout the dialogue. The music was beautiful ahead of the vow exchange which were perfect for the characters and their journey over the past 18 months prior.
