THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR #66

Welcome back to the Real Gone Singles Bar, the place where we explore some of the recent individual tracks that have landed in our inbox over the past few weeks. This time around, you’ll find a several familiar names returning to “the bar”, but with their best tunes to date. Stylistically, it’s a pleasingly mixed bag, drawing from indie rock, Americana, soulful singer songwriter fare, and choppy guitar sounds that very much tip the hat to Arctic Monkeys. As a varied selection, it’s interesting, but certainly works. We hope, as always, that you’ll find something new to enjoy…

THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR SUMMER SPECIAL 2024

Over the first six months of 2024, Real Gone received hundreds of submissions for the Singles Bar. Naturally, not everything appealed, and with only eight tracks featured every week, there were various great tracks that also fell by the wayside. Our Singles Bar “Summer Special” rounds up some of the best sounds that didn’t find a previous home. It would’ve been a travesty not to share such good music, but in a couple of cases, we’ve even included material that really should have featured at the Singles Bar around the time of release. Within this batch of twenty top tunes, we’ve pulled together some very retro sounding pop-rock, something with a huge late 60s sound, a couple of gothy bits, a nod to Americana, and even a slice of trad folk. We hope this round up of bits and pieces introduces you to something new, and maybe even inspires you to check out more material.
