THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR #96

Welcome back to the Real Gone Singles Bar, the place where we investigate some of the individual tunes that have landed in our inbox over the previous few weeks. This time out, we bring you a dance oriented number with indigenous vocals, a couple of very different country tracks, a second single from an up and coming British band, and an unexpected reissue. You’ll also find guitar driven pieces that fit easily into our more typical musical jigsaw and the return of a cult singer-songwriter. We hope there’s enough here to suit a variety of ears…

THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR #93

Welcome back to the Real Gone Singles Bar, the place where we explore some of the individual tracks that have landed in our inbox over the previous few weeks. This time out, we’ve got the return of a much-loved pop band, a laid back narrative piece from a very familiar name, a great synth oriented workout, some huge riffs from the Medway area in South East England…and more besides. As is often the case with the SB, there’s no genre snobbery; just a spotlight on things we’ve found interesting. Hopefully, you’ll find something of interest too.

You’ll also find some cool downtempo electronica, some raw garage rock, a singer songwriter with a great mellow sound, and more… As always, we hope you find something new to enjoy!

THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR #91

Welcome back to the Real Gone Singles Bar, the place where we explore some of the individual tracks that have been sent our way over the previous few weeks. This selection takes in a couple of familiar acts – a massively cult Australian band, and someone making yet another return to the SB. As usual, the selection of tunes also explores a few slightly less familiar avenues. You’ll discover a slice of jazzy, downbeat singer songwriter fare, something with a strong soul bias, and even a new offering from a cult post punk act. As with the best previous Singles Bars, we’ve given no bias towards any particular genre, and feel that this particular selection really highlights how much good music has started to emerge now that 2025 is properly underway. Enjoy!
