Frank McComb [2022] - Instead [Boobeescoot Music]

The new single from Frank McComb was released yesterday via Bandcamp. It's a song dedicated to fathers titled "Instead". Someone pointed out to him on Father's Day that there was no song dedicated to fathers. So he didn't wait for the next Father's Day to come around and wrote one and released it.

I think this is the best he's done for a while and sounds even more like Stevie Wonder than usual on this outing.

Thanks to Steve Aggasild for the heads up on this one.

Chloe Bodur [2022] - Kitty & I [Self Released]

Chloe Bodur debuted on the blog in Jun 2022 with her last single "Come With Me". She returns with a new single "Kitty & I" released today (16 Aug 2022) which is a much better effort.

Chloe is a 23 year old singer/songwriter from North West London of Sri-Lankan/Turkish heritage. Her music is influenced by traditional soul and bossanova which she refers to as R&Bossanova. She hates it to be labelled as neo-soul, so DJs take note.

At the time of the release of "Come With Me" she stated that it was from a forthcoming EP, which will be her third following "Panties & Loafers" (Nov 2020) and "Mavi" (Nov 2021). So, as they were both released in Nov, expect the latest one to drop then as well?
