irish brothers harry & alfie hudson-taylor are set to finally release their debut album (they've been on the buzzlines for a good 2 years now) 'singing for stranger' next month. their latest single is easily their most radio friendly singalong number and hopefully will bring these troubadours the success they deserve. loving the heartfelt storytelling by video directors filmawi & esreal too!

WONGIE FOLK POP SONG OF THE WEEK: lewis watson - into the wild

lewis watson - into the wild
at just 20 years old, youtube sensation lewis watson offers up his beautifully breezy lead single from his latest major label EP 'the wild'. after being discovered online, lewis has been getting serious buzz opening for acts like lianne la havas and birdy (another youtube singer turned crossover act), plus he's prepping his debut album which features collaborations with songwriting producers who've worked with jake bugg, florence and the machine and arctic monkeys. with the success of male singer/songwriters ed sheeran and ben howard the past year, it's looking like lewis will have a good shot at similar successes. i'm betting yes!
