To quote Steve Hogarth speaking about an English saying: “When in Rome…find yourself an amazing Italian band and gig with them.”

Said and done – Steve Hogarth played a local show in Rome at Sala Sinopoli, joined by the Italian band RanestRane and the Flowing Chords choir. This extraordinary night will be released as a new album on January 16th, titled ‘SPQR – Live From Sala Sinopoli, Roma, II.III.MMXXIV.’

Though the concert has already earned its place in Rome’s musical history, listening to the album or watching the accompanying concert film evokes the vivid sense of being there. With his emotive voice, expressive delivery, and intimate piano playing, Hogarth creates a deeply personal atmosphere.

Look forward to fantastic live versions of ‘Thank You Whoever You Are’, ‘Go!’ and ‘Estonia’, as well as magnificent renditions of The Beatles’ ‘All You Need Is Love’.

The first single, a wonderful take on Leonard Cohen’s ‘Famous Blue Raincoat’, is already out now.

"Hello cruel world / I'm not going away / So I might as well have my say."

Grammy-winning artist Joe Jackson returns with his first new studio album in seven years, titled ‘Hope and Fury’. The record reflects the emotional, social, and political paradox so many of us seem to be caught up in these days. It thrives on contrasts, polar opposites and the in-between – wrapped in lyrical wit, sharp sarcasm, irony and clever observations.

Jackson himself sums it up neatly, describing himself and his work as ‘bicoastal’ – both geographically and musically. Or, to be more precise: Bicoastal LatinJazzFunkRock.

From Berlin to New York – ‘Hope and Fury’ took shape between two worlds. Joe Jackson teamed up again with Patrick Dillett and his trusted crew Graham Maby (Joe's bassist since Look Sharp!), Teddy Kumpel, Doug Yowell and special guest, Grammy-winning percussionist Paulo Stagnaro. And soon, he’s taking Hope and Fury out into the world: a North American tour in spring and summer 2026, followed by Europe from September through December, 80 shows across 14 countries.

Now, if you look closely, the album artwork already gives a taste of what’s inside: somewhere in the distance, a public building is quietly burning. So, what do we do, here, now? An answer, it seems, can be found in new music – stay tuned.

The Damned are still ‘Not Like Everybody Else’ – their new covers album is both a celebration of more than 50 years of band history and a tribute to late founding member and guitarist Brian James. ‘Not Like Everybody Else’ features ten reimagined tracks – covers of songs by The Yardbirds, The Animals, The Lovin’ Spoonful, Pink Floyd and more – each of them reflecting the soundtrack of the members’ own musical journeys. Dave Vanian, Captain Sensible, Rat Scabies – who returned to the studio with the band for the first time in 40 years – along with Paul Grey and Monty Oxymoron, capturing the very energy that started it all many years ago.
