Album of the Week: Michael Marcagi – Under The Streetlights

Ohio-born Michael Marcagi broke through in 2024 with the viral hit "Scared To Start" off EP American Romance. His first album has just been released - a nice collection of contemporary singer-songwriter material (he describes his music as granola folk!).

Album of the Week: Dove Ellis – Blizzard

Let's start the new year with some quality singer/songwriter fare, this from Irish troubadour Dove Ellis. Pitchfork were on the money with this one (if a little churlish with their 7.6 rating!): The ambitious young Irish balladeer crafts a debut album that’s heavy on the drama, letting moments of anthemic beauty peak through his cryptic delivery.

Album of the Week: Boy & Bear – Tripping Over Time

Boy & Bear's new album looks at "the passing of time through a variety of lenses" singer Dave Hosking told the ABC. This is a really nice bunch of songs, the sixth album from the Australian band.

Album of the Week: Richard Ashcroft – Lovin’ You

As Qobuz say: Everything sounds right on Lovin' You—and let's be glad that Ashcroft, 54, just wasn't made for these times. In contrast to the heaviness of the world, the album crackles with optimism and romance.  New Zealand Net Radio plays a song from our irregularly updated #albumoftheweek every hour from 9am to 12pm.

Album of the Week: The Last Dinner Party – From The Pyre

The Last Dinner Party's second album brings another superb dollop of glam rock, full of slightly over-wrought vocals, great hooks and lyrics. The Line of Best Fit said that "Pyre, like/perhaps slightly more than Prelude, is fiercely ambitious, gloriously messy, and wickedly entrancing".
