Singer-songwriter ELVIN has now shared the stunning new video for her single Wonder, a song about reconnecting to a child-like fascination with the world. As a result, all the musicians in the video are styled like toys in a toy box that have come to life. Talking about the video, ELVIN elaborates, "my incredible friends who run Mama Marbles pop up events, lent me their surreally stunning space of the ‘Imaginarium’.  I thought it was so perfect given it’s beautiful venetian theatre-esque aesthetic with giant moons and clouds. I am so grateful to everyone who managed to bring Wonder into existence, from the support of my friends, to my partnership with Yamaha, to the incredible directorship of Raja Virdi. Honestly it’s human kindness that moves me the most and continues to astound me."

Goth-rockers Hana Piranha have released their explosive new single, Naked Flame, out now. Leading anti-heroine Hana Maria’s vocal pierces through the fierce musicality effortlessly, sounding akin to the likes of Juliette Lewis or Garbage’s Shirley Manson. Hana Piranha are a band that breach genre with their use of traditionally classical instrumentation, such as violin and harp, in a hard rock setting. Hana’s razor sharp violin licks are undeniably impressive, enabling that band to create a sound that is both dark and tantalising. Naked Flame is the first single to be taken from their upcoming album Waiting To Burn, out on 22nd March 2019 via Fourglove Records.
