I’m Nick Tann – musician, songwriter, and your guide to the best new music you haven’t heard yet.

For a change I thought I would do all the heavy lifting regarding the notes and just used Chat GPT to tidy up the links, the rest is all me, me and me… so it’s probably got spelling mistakes and bad grammar!

In this banger of an episode we kick off with the stunning
Death of the High Street – OVER NOW
Jaw dropping tight rhythms and swaggering lyrics from this Midlands-based rock punk outfit that you will fall in love with within the first 15 seconds or your money back! Their linktree shows all:

The legendary Jah Wobble and the hypnotic Tyson Dub Remix raises the bottom end to the nth degree with a track that will rattle your fillings! Of course he has a website, who do you think he is, chopped liver?

I play Berty’s new single Jellyfish – a surreal assault on the auditory senses. It’s a massive headphone moment so make sure you are wearing yours. She’s got one of those Wix websites that builders have but it does the job:

Get over there and sign up to her mailing list. You can see her new video for Jellyfish. It’s bonkers… no really.

At the end of a meal, instead of a dessert, I often like to finish with the cheeseboard.
John Michael Cross and his track Do the Seasons Change is the cheeseboard. It’s not a wide variety of cheese but a small choice of very good quality cheddars that linger on the palate.
I would direct you to his website but it’s a bit of a train wreck. Pufferfish represent him so head over to their Facebook page:

and tell them off for it.

Grete, Mora and the Fabulous Wonderfuls, Berty – Meteor Street

Welcome to another brilliant episode of Nick Tann’s Fresh Music Fix — your go-to place for discovering incredible unsigned and independent artists.

We kick things off with the phenomenal Grete and her new single JUICE. It’s the third track we’ve featured from the Lithuanian-turned-Mancunian artist, and this one absolutely grooves with a heavy bassline and smooth R&B vibes. Dive into more from Grete on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.

Next up, it’s a true family affair with MORA and the Fabulous Wonderfuls and their slow, blues-soaked tune Tool. The duo – George ‘Guitar’ Borowski and his daughter Mora – blend classic soul vocals with raw, expressive energy. Mora’s voice has been described as “Janis Joplin meets Nina Simone” and you’ll hear why. Explore their world across Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok.

Third in the mix is a returning favourite – the ethereal Bristol-based artist Berty with her stunning new song I Hope It’s OK. This hauntingly beautiful track cements Berty as one of our standout regulars. Follow her journey at YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.

To wrap things up, we welcome back the genre-defying Meteor Street and their latest offering Tell Me It’s Still Changing. Describing themselves as “a rock band fronted by the daughter/father duo Alison Belle and Aldo Riba, here to bring the world the dulcet, chaotic sounds of literary rock” – this track is wild, theatrical, and utterly unforgettable. Check them out at their official website.

Second up was Berty and Big Leap. I can never strees this enough buyt please listen with headphones unless you have a kick arse stereo as this is ASMR heaven. Tingles indead from this stunningly produced masterpiece, Big Leap certainly delivered in “Tingles”. She has a Facebook page which is something but I will keep banging on at artists to get a website. Certainly also worth checking out her YouTube profile We definitely want to hear more.

The Spitfires had us both nodding our heads and channelling Madness (Dolphin Feathers) and The Stranglers (me) with their nu mod “Better the Devil You Know“. They have just started a UK tour

So get along to one of those dates if you can. If you cant then perhaps visit their linktree to learn more about this interesting Watford band.

Podcast favourite Pmad ended and interesting amd rather alternative podcast with a collaboration with Italian artist “Think” and a new song “Chance“. We reviled in the beautiful chaotic mix of majors and minors and the gorgeous drama of this tune from the Irish Londonite. His linktree is the best place to start following this gem of an artist so if he is for you then be there for him.

 

I also reminded listers that there are Spotify and Tidal playlists made up of all the tracks played on the podcast that appear on those platforms if you wanted to take a listen. Visit the website and click.
