Bobby Bazini - C'est La Vie
Fans of George Ezra and Paolo Nutini and other similar sounding artists will love this soulful and smooth number with Bazini's voice properly centre stage. (7/10)
CHVRN - Secrets
Dirty Heads - Vacation
Though we're not quite sure everyone loves their job this much, but alongside the great video is this catchy summer anthem that has been stuck in our heads for days now! (7.5/10)
Georgia Van Etten - Take My Hand
A beautifully written and sung number, showcasing van Etten's delightful voice. When the band kicks in the song begins to ascend and lifts to another level. Delightful and relaxing, and surely a star in the making! (7/10)
Hollie Cook - Angel Fire
There's a fun and funky reggae flavour to this single that feels like another great track to add to that 2017 BBQ playlist. (6.5/10)
Morrissey & Marshall - Hangin' Around
Sounding like a cross between the Beatles and Franz Ferdinand, this gentle throw-back track is a delightfully smooth and cool listen. Shame it's one of those annoying videos with sounds ruining the track. (6.5/10)
Rag'n'Bone Man - As You Are
Though not as immediately as grabbing as 'Wolves' or 'Skin' 'As You Are' is a great showcase for his soulful voice and this gentler, more rhythmic number is still a strong listen and a grower. (7/10)
The Script - Rain
The Script can often be relied upon for coming up with a catchy pop song and on 'Rain' they succeed, turning quite a downbeat theme into a jaunty chant-able ditty. (7/10)
TLC - It's Sunny
Heavily falling on Bobby Hebb's classic song for its appeal with a strong Earth, Wind and Fire feel, and quite poppy for TLC and perhaps a little away from their usual sound, this is aside from that quite a fun summer hit. (7/10)
Up Down Go Machine - Gambler
'Gambler' is a smooth number with an Imagine Dragons vibe, a gentle, building track with a dramatic build up and vibe. Nice. (6/10)
