Brand-New Bangers: Noteworthy Nods 2023 – Batch 21

It’s Thursday once again and that time of the week in which we share what have become our most listened-to tunes over the past seven days.

Last week’s selection included tracks from the likes of N.O.A.HThe PalavaThe Velvet HandsBanditFiddlehead and Shed Seven (available here in case you missed it). Today’s playlist features brand new belters from Reignmaker, VijiBlondes, The Sankaras, The Montagues, and alright (okay).

As always, this is all about spreading the word, especially when it comes to up-and-coming bands who appreciate and deserve all the support they can get, so you’d be doing them all a big favour by showing your support for the music you enjoy on our lists by sending them some love on social media.

After all, a tweet, an Instagram post, or even just a retweet doesn’t cost a penny and goes a long way to helping musicians out. We’re also always more than grateful for any suggestions/recommendations our readers might have which we’d love for you to share with us over on InstagramFacebook, or Twitter. You can also contact Howard Gorman directly on Twitter here where his DM door is always open for any recommendations.

So, without further ado, here we go with round 21 of this year’s Noteworthy Nods:

Aside from the aforementioned track recommendations, our Noteworthy section includes weekly videocast interviews featuring musical talent we hope are either already or, about to become your new favorite artists. You can watch/rewatch all previous episodes via the video playlist below featuring the likes of Turin Brakes, Embrace, The Boo Radleys, Shed Seven, The Sherlocks, Stanleys, The K’s, The Native, The Clause, and many more.

It’s time to sign off but don’t be a stranger! Please do send any recommendations or track submissions to us over on Twitter and Instagram. We look forward to hearing from you and hope you enjoy the tracks we’ve picked out for you this week.
