Episode 98: After Eight Show - 27/04/21

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

The After Eight Show now goes out on 17 internet radio stations in 5 countries and is followed by over 10,000 people on Twitter.
This week, as always, we had 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, was a new cover version of a song written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, first recorded by Richard Chamberlain (Dr Kildare, Thorn Birds), covered by Dionne Warwick and Dusty Springfield, but made massively popular by The Carpenters. The cover version by AJIMAL came out in February - it's wonderfully intimate and atmospheric. Give it a listen!
