AS I reach the half-way mark of my feature…
IN THIS PHOTO: Ferris & Sylvester
I have collated a lot of great names that will make some headway and impressions in 2018. This year has been a great one for music: it is likely next year will be an even bigger and more fascinating one. Because of that; I have been searching the avenues and options out there and brought together, what I think, is a definitive guide.
There are acts from the U.K. and U.S.; some other international treats into the bargain. I am going to bring in more European influences into the bargain in the remaining two parts of the feature; maybe one or two African artists – broadening my horizons and seeing what is out there...
