Whetting appetites for their upcoming shows, the Folk Punk legends have prepared a brand new video for ‘Tumbling Into Something' Taken from their invigorating 2025 release ‘Songs From The Yonder’, amidst an album full of mostly up-tempo madness, “Tumbling Into Something” is the moment of calm that allows its listeners to catch their breath.
Of the track, Dan Heptinstall shares: “I always feel Lorna’s voice shines on our ballad style tracks, and this track lends itself particularly well to her voice. It’s an optimistic song about tumbling fearlessly forward into life while acknowledging its beauty. It’s about surrendering to the uncertainties of life, and embracing the excitement of the ride. It’s also about new beginnings and second chances.”
Offering a more ambient and atmospheric arrangement than fans might usually expect from a Skinny Lister staple, the hallmark instruments are still all present and correct, albeit in soothing form. “The drums are played with bare hands rather than sticks, and the accordion in this case is used more to add mood than melody, played almost like a synth pad – it leans towards something that sounds a little more ‘Vangelis’ than traditional folk” adds Dan.
‘Tumbling Into Something’ follows the seafaring ‘Yorkshire Belle’, the fervent ‘Plough On’, and swaggering drinking song ‘Set Us Straight’ among the singles plucked from their acclaimed 2025 album. Teeming with themes of seafaring, travelling and drinking, ‘Song From The Yonder’ is a riotous, feel-good listen that already feels right at home in the Skinny cannon.

Romanie shares her triumphant new single ‘I Won’t Yell’ along with news of her upcoming album It’s Not That Funny, set for release on Feb 20 via Community Music. New single ‘I Won’t Yell’ arrives as a declaration of defiance. Originally stemming from a folk song Romanie had written years earlier, ‘I Won’t Yell’ was co-produced with Adam Hyde (Peking Duk, Keli Holiday) and Tom Stell (Golden Features), reworked during a 3 day co-writing session in Sydney. Speaking to the process, Romanie shares, “We turned this small acoustic song upside down into this powerful statement, keeping basically all the lyrics and giving them a new meaning.
The song is about not being heard as a woman: oftentimes we get called ‘too much’ or ‘too loud’ with the result of keeping our emotions to ourselves, or not speaking up about the things that we want to. ‘I Won’t Yell’ was a fun song to make: letting go of my constant self judgement with the nudge of Tom and Adam, who let me yell in the vocal booth.”
Multi-award-winning Naarm/Melbourne-based artist Romanie returned earlier this year with acclaimed singles ‘Uh Oh’ and ‘When Will We Lose Hope?’. In addition she signed off the summer by making her mark on Europe, supporting grentperez in Brussels and Gordi in Antwerp before joining pals Olivia Jane Bolmat and SHERÓSY on their ‘Girls Tour’ stopping in London,, Manchester and Scotland.
‘I Won’t Yell’ is the third single lifted from Romanie’s forthcoming album, It’s Not That Funny. It marks a significant progression from her Australian Music Prize-nominated debut album Are We There Yet? As the new record showcases a transformation in Romanie’s worldview and artistry through embracing contradiction: finding light in the moments of darkness, hope in the face of adversity.

London singer-songwriter Alice Costelloe has unveiled new single 'Damned If You Do' - the latest preview of her highly anticipated debut album 'Move On With The Year', out 6th February 2026 via Moshi Moshi Records.
Interrogating the crossroads between art and adulthood, 'Damned If You Do' reflects on the looming rituals of marriage, motherhood, and the idea of giving oneself away. Unfolding through warm organ tones, plaintive guitar lines and rumbling synths, Costelloe's crystalline vocals let the questions sit open rather than solved: "Would I do it for love / Do it for you / Give my body up / For something new."
On the release of her new single, Alice said: “I was thinking a lot about the next phase of life as I wrote this album. Cocooned away and focused purely on making music, I felt more creatively fulfilled than I had in a long time. It made me question how this freedom could exist if I followed a more conventional path. To prioritise domesticity and stability or to prioritise creative ambition – either choice felt like sacrificing something essential.
“I was also coming out of a period of keeping my head above water while navigating life with an addict parent, and I realised that whatever decisions I made next, I needed to be careful not to lose myself. ‘I don’t see myself all dressed in white / standing in the shadows’ is as much about my claustrophobia around the altar and its traditions as it is about resisting the pressure to embody some ideal of feminine virtue – to be expected to sacrifice your own life in service of another.”

Today, NY-based actor/director/musician Adam Goldberg announces When the Ships of My Dreams Return, the upcoming album from his moniker The Goldberg Sisters that will be released on February 20, 2026. This is the fifth album from The Goldberg Sisters, the current musical project from the multi-hyphenate who has starred in films like Saving Private Ryan, Dazed and Confused and 2 Days in Paris and appeared in TV shows like Friends, Entourage, Fargo and The Equalizer. The LP marks the first time where Goldberg has performed, recorded and mixed the entirety of the album on his own. Also today, he released the album’s first single “Our Kind of Love,” a track about the complexities of how to present love in an increasingly digital age.
On the new single, Goldberg shares: “‘Our Kind of Love’ was the first song I began recording for the album, before I realized that I was recording another album. It had been several years, and between two kids and my day job, I had neither the time nor frankly the inspiration to make another record or even another song really. But I had begun making some guitar loops, a practice which has often led to songs, and this track was born out of one of those sessions. It began simply with the looped phrase ‘Our kind of love’ — ostensibly a love song — but as I fleshed it out became a song about some people’s presentation of love, especially in the context of social media. This theme ended up recurring throughout the process of writing what in fact became a full album.”
His first LP since 2018’s Home: A Nice Place to Visit, When the Ships of My Dreams Return is his most expansive album yet in terms of style and lyrical themes, showcasing his ability to channel his energy into exploring unfamiliar terrain and re-emerging with a musical map that charts thrilling new paths for himself. And while Goldberg had played most everything on his last couple of records as well as self-recording several demos, he had never done it all entirely alone until now.

20-year-old multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and creative visionary Bino Bames releases the 'Gathers No Moss' EP, alongside emotive visuals for new single ‘'Let You Go’' today.
With a string of standout singles already released from the EP; including 'Cocktail Princess’', 'Isolated' and 'Nothing's Real'; Bino Bames has earned tastemaker support from Clash, DIY, Wonderland, Cosmopolitan and The Line of Best Fit to name a few, and built a growing cult following in the process. Honing his craft across the collection of 8 tracks, Bino reveals his unique voice as an artist stepping into his own, instilled in the narrative arc of his songs with a cinematic edge.
Serving as both a closing chapter and a new beginning, 'Let You Go' is a euphoric collision of emotion and relentless energy, an anthem of heartbreak and self-discovery. Shot over two sessions between London & Spain, the 'Let You Go' music video is art directed by Bino himself, and directed by Bino's long term collaborator and creative director Jorge Foley, bringing a raw grunge inspired aesthetic channelling the track's emotional chaos.
'I'd just come off the Punchbag University Tour when Jorge flew in from Spain,' Bino recalls. 'We'd shot half the video a month earlier, but those last few days together were when everything finally clicked. I wrote this song five years ago, back in Vegas. Since then, I've lived through more relationships, more heartbreaks, more growing up, and all of that changed what the song means to me. After performing it so many times on tour, it’s taken on a new life. The video feels like the moment it finally caught up.'
