With the year coming to an end, it’s time to pull deserving songs from the queue. It’s not a publish-or-perish situation for the songs, but there is a preference toward posting songs during the year of their release.

Kiol is a multi-instrumentalist with ties to Italy, England and Ireland. He was born in Turin, Italy, but is now based in London. His song “Mallow” is a reflection on his time in summer school in Mallow, Ireland. He explains that during that summer (2014) he was encouraged to sing by some Irish fellas who started calling him Kiol, which is the sound of the word music (ceol) in ancient Gaelic.

Island is another London connection. The band’s bio states that they are an Alternative guitar band whose history is characterized by "old friendships, close bonds, and an almost telepathic mutual understanding. Forming as teenagers when frontman Rollo Doherty’s acoustic bedroom project was treated to the boisterous backing of guitarist Jack Raeder, bassist James Wolfe and drummer Toby Richards in a dingy windowless practice room where they began to painstakingly shape a sound which combined darkly twisting instrumental with a sweetly melodic song-writing nous that belied their age."
