Gruff Rhys
THIS month’s CD runs the gamut of musical styles, presenting just a small selection of the excellent bunch of records that are reviewed and featured in this issue you’re holding. There’s Americana and folk from Brown Horse, Muireann Bradley, Johnny Dowd and Steve Gunn & Bridget St John covering Michael Chapman; raucous fuzz-assisted rock courtesy of Ty Segall and Office Dog; pristine and playful orchestral pop from Gruff Rhys and Jerry David DeCicca; right through to the wilder expanses of Thandi Ntuli, Nailah Hunter and Ultrasonic Grand Prix. Third eyes open? Dig in.
