Bare Jams – “Little Bit”

Started as a project of Ollie Coombes and Sam James back in 2011, this sunlit band evolved into an exuberant sextet. With an unique multi-genre blend of reggae, soul, pop and ska, they’ve played festivals like Isle Of Wight and Bockor Rock. They played their own headline shows in the UK and Europe, as well as opening for The Wailers and Will & The People. They debuted with their EP “Cold Treats” in 2015.

Beaming positivity from every jolly note, their new single delivers warm, summery vibes during these cold winter months. Melodically showing what you can achieve when you mix radiant reggae with vintage funk, this groove opens powerful, before effortlessly moving into a bobbing reggae beat. Infusing the joyful bounce with funkalicious horns, this catchy jam fills your heart with sheer euphoria.

Olivia Wik – “Let’s Dance”

Joking that she would sing more than talk, this award-winning Canadian singer and songwriter picked up a guitar for the first time at the age of 8 and began thinking seriously about a music career aged 16. As a songwriter she has over 250 songs in her catalogue for artists such as Ryland James, Olivia Rose and Rebecca Lappa. She released her own retro-pop sound on “When I Was Drunk” in 2019.

Bathed in a vintage-touched, joyful exuberance, her new single is an infectious and bubbly burst of rich musicality. Singing about building intimacy in a relationship and the euphoric electricity that follows, it’s the bouncy bass, vibrant rhythm and vivid horns that gives this groove a perky, ear-pleasing tune. And with her steamy, flirtatious vocals, you’ve got to dance to this sexy slice of sonic spice.
