Ina Forsman [2022] - Don't Lose Today [Jazzhaus Records]


Ina Forsman is from Helsinki, Finland but now lives in Berlin. One source (Discogs) states that she was a contestant in Finnish Idols in 2012 and another (Wiki) that she was in The Voice of Finland when she was 15 (around 2009). 

She debuted with a self-titled album in 2016 and followed it up in 2019 with "I've Been Meaning To Tell You". She also appears on two albums by Blues Caravan. Despite two full solo album releases, she hasn't released many singles and the latest (only her fifth), "Don't Lose Today" (4 Mar 2022) is the first since the classy "All There Is" (23 Jul 2021) (live video posted below that has been uploaded since first posting the song).

It's a 60s throwback tune with that Motown sound which might please some of the 'talcum shakers'? Watch the video if you wondered where your gran's curtains went to!

Myles Sanko [2022] - Where Do We Stand (Radio Edit) [Légère Recordings#LEGO 260]


The new single from Myles Sanko (who always reminds me of a blend between Bill Withers and Gregory Porter) was released yesterday (4 Mar 2022).

Both his album "Memories Of Love" (12 Mar 2021) and the standout single pre-released from it "Streams Of Time" (8 Jan 2021) were in the SoulStrutter end of year selections for 2021. The new single "Where Do We Stand" is the opening track on the album which has been shortened from the 6:59 album version to a 4:30 radio edit.

Myles states that song is an outcry to his 'absent' father who was a fisherman and never home as he was always at sea.

Sanko is from London, with Ghanaian roots, who first emerged in 2011 featuring on a cover of Stevie Wonder's "Another Star" by Pagany. "Memories Of Love" is his fourth album since his first in 2014
