After Eight Show - New Music You Just Don't Hear Anywhere Else!

Masses of #NewMusic in our playlist! An eclectic mix of original, intelligent, melodic, grown-up songs - #electronic, #rnb, #jazz, #blues and #acoustic. And mostly from artists who you have not heard of - yet! Think 'next series of Jools' - that's the kind of artists that we play.
Our Luvva Cover feature, this week, is a version of one of Neil Young's best loved songs. Talking to Dolly Parton about the song when she was about to cover it, he said he didn't remember what it was about but there is an element of time travel in the lyrics - verse one is set in medieval times, verse two is in the present, and verse three mentions 'The Chosen Ones' evacuating Earth in silver spaceships. The cover version is fabulous - it's by Katie Pruitt - an Americana / folk / alt. country artist based in Nashville. Give it a listen!
