“… Seven Purple Tigers’ new self-titled debut album is one of the best DIY overseas debuts we have heard this year.” – Indie Rock Cafe

It’s not often that an act so elusive can strike at the heart of something so personal but it’s in that balance that you’ll find indie’s most exciting new act – Seven Purple Tigers. The band’s founders Austin Horn (singer/rhythm guitar) and Phil Dyszy (lead guitar/backing vocals) are an unlikely pair. From the US and Germany respectively, the trans-Atlantic duo bonded over their love of music in the vibrant basement bars and clubs of the Old Town of Kraków, Poland. It was there that the pair began crafting what would become Seven Purple Tiger’s signature sound that came to fruition after 5 years of writing together and performing live alongside bandmates Sebastian Heieck (bass) and Felix Schwer (drums); the sound that scores the stellar video for their new single ‘Ignorance is Blitz’.

“The track is a reflection on a relationship that failed from both parties coming into it as a cure for loneliness but found that neither was the right person for the other. It avoids both self-deprecation and accusing the other person in favour of a more tongue-in-cheek approach in the verses; more of a “yea, well that was dumb, huh?””

Dyszy’s upbeat, clean guitar open the single, setting the stage for Horn’s vocals that tell of a relationship that was doomed from the start. While a song that looks back, musically the track represents a step further for the band who play with their most complex instrumentation yet. Breathing and evolving with the song, layers dip in and out, while Horn moves between wry singing and chants right at home with the greatest anthems indie rock has to offer.  Likewise, the video places moves between long-gone happier periods, and present day lament all through a dreamy haze to so brilliantly capture the spirit of the single.

Like Seven Purple Tigers’ previous work, Ignorance is Blitz wears its 2010s Indie influences on its sleeves while taking the torch and pushing the genre further, continuing the band’s work taking the old and making it new. Based out of Freiburg, Germany, Seven Purple Tigers create their music in the lovingly repurposed defunct restaurant of an inn. It is here that the group marry the classic American flair, European philosophy and artistic legacy, and existential explorations of timeless themes that create Seven Purple Tigers.

Emeli Sandé, a name synonymous with heartfelt ballads and soaring anthems, returns with a fresh offering, ‘Roots’, released on November 29th via her new independent label, Venus Records. This poignant track not only signals her artistic independence but also marks a bold step forward in her career, blending personal and cultural narratives into a deeply moving piece of music.

A Song That Speaks to the Soul

Co-written and produced by Ollie Green, ‘Roots’ is an evocative blend of gentle piano melodies and Sandé’s unmistakable vocal power. The lyrics delve into themes of heritage, strength, and connection to nature, creating vivid imagery that resonates with universal truths:

“Our roots are in the soil / They’re in the fields / The rivers and the streams / And if you dig in deep enough / You’ll find the strength of centuries.”

This tender track not only invites introspection but also serves as a rallying call to honor the past while looking forward with hope.

A Journey Through History and Identity

Sandé’s personal and professional journey converges beautifully in ‘Roots.’ Growing up in Alford, Aberdeenshire, and embracing her Zambian heritage, she brings a unique perspective to her music. Now, she’s moving her studio back to her family home in Scotland, creating her upcoming album in the very space where her musical story began.

“On Roots, I’m exploring cultural history and identity. Moving the studio back into my parents’ home made perfect sense. It’s a place that has shaped me in so many ways. I know who I am now and can’t wait to reintroduce myself to the world!” – Emeli Sandé

Exciting Milestones Ahead

The release of ‘Roots’ kicks off an extraordinary chapter for Sandé:

  1. Performing with a choir and orchestra for Belgium’s Night of the Proms.
  2. Singing at the German Sustainability Awards, emphasizing the song’s alignment with global themes of community and legacy.
  3. A December performance for the Pope at the Vatican’s Christmas concert, supporting victims of war in Palestine and Ukraine.
