Album Review: Pieces of Me – Malynda Hale

Malynda Hale

Since her last appearance on NEW LEASE MUSIC with single Hey Stranger, I always wondered what happened to songstress MALYNDA HALE. Six months down the line,  the curiosity was quashed when she slipped me her full-length album, Pieces Of Me.

With lessons of love, heartbreak and self-discovery all faced with unflappable optimism, the 11-track collection boasts seamlessly soothing soundscapes of modern R&B, pop and at times drive-time rock, with are all lifted by that classically rich soulful vocals.

This lady hasn’t lost her touch; it’s worth investing your time to check out this treasure via iTunes.

Must Listens: Gray, Falling, Better Than Nothing, Pieces Of Me.

Upcoming Release: New Man – Warme

New Man Warme

British five-piece rock outfit WARME takes a detour with their forthcoming single, New Man, taken from their album, Council House Opera out on 25th February.

Usually taking on the image of the Gallagher-esque two finger salute, the Bradford rockers venture into a more sentimental side of rock music. Featuring trance-like vocals with the alluringly hypnotic guitar riffs, their follow-up to previous effort, Council House Opera, is suited for those winter months ahead.

Band members Lee Walsh, Craig Hamilton, Jamie Hamilton, Macauley Haywood and Lewis Knight have been making their way up step by step, from supporting musicians such as Arthur Brown, Henry Rollins and The Strypes to playing in front of up to 25000 people at festivals. These down-to-Earth guys will be on the road again on 8th April at Star of Kings in Kings Cross, London. For further information on gigs, take a trip to their website.

New Man is set for release on 12th February…for now, watch the video

Upcoming Release: Release Me – The Phantom Sound

THE PHANTOM SOUND are ready to drop their latest effort, Release Me which is the 2nd single from their self-titled debut album out in October.

The indie rock/pop band is heavily influenced by frontman Marisa’s love for the late 70s and early 80s punk and new wave movements, gaining inspiration from artists such as David Bowie, Roxy Music, Blondie, The Ramones, and Duran Duran.

She’s been fortunate to work with several excellent and accomplished artists on this album. Ken Stringfellow of the Posies, Big Star, and R.E.M. is producing the album as well as playing on it. Clem Burke, drummer of Blondie, plays on several of the tracks and Pierre DeReeder, bass player from Rilo Kiley also contributes, among other talented musicians.

Her single, Get to Me, was the top voted song on Charlie Ashcroft’s Audition Show, and has had various radio plays around the U.S. and U.K. She wrote and recorded this album in Berlin, Amsterdam, London, and Paris. Originally from Los Angeles, Marisa now lives in London.

Release Me will be out in September…but for now, check it the striking video.
