A Trophy is here

"A Trophy" is the new album by Tobias Cummings and his first release through Departed Sounds.

Already garnering rave reviews, "A Trophy" is available now in vinyl, CD and MP3 formats.

Tobias and his band will be touring through September and October in support of the album. For the tour dates and venues, please check Tobias' website.

The following review excerpt sums it up neatly:

‘Sweetest Poetry’ and ‘Goldmine’ are definite standouts. However, picking apart tracks doesn’t do A Trophy much justice ...

Crafting a sense of yearning that stings like lemon juice to an open wound, A Trophy is a tour-de-force that shakes with unexpected conviction. A magnificent storyteller.

One of the best releases this year, surely.

Early Summer arriving soon ...

"Early Summer" is the stunning new album by Amaya Laucirica. It is scheduled for release on Friday 1st October.

The album will be released on vinyl, CD and digital formats.

You can listen to the album right now and buy the MP3 version if you wish. CD and vinyl versions are available for pre-order only.

Amaya Laucirica has a voice that seeps into your subconscious. She’s an indie chanteuse; dark and dreamy, but never dreary. Mixed by Aussie ex-pat Victor Van Vugt (Nick Cave, The Moodists, Beth Orton), her second album builds on her striking debut, 2008’s Sugar Lights.

At times, she reminds of a young Chrissy Amphlett; alluring yet menacing. You get the feeling she’s just one breakout song from becoming a star. It might not be here, but the intoxicating "This World Can Make You Happy" comes close.

Check out the beautiful cover art, design and layout by Amaya Laucirica and photograph by Lauren Bamford. And just imagine how good it will look on vinyl.
