Time for a festive (almost) track of the week. We love Luke Sital-Singh and his beautiful vocals, and he's recently shared a new track with the premise that having patience is that bit harder "when you're freezing your bits off" (his words!) A stunning track! If you're lucky enough to be heading to Luke's headline show at St Pancras Old Church in London this evening - have fun!

Track of the week: Harvey Causon - 'London Stock'
A quick read of his bio, and you'll learn that Bristol's Harvey Causon is "turning heads with his deft take on contemporary R&B, percussive electronica and powerful, brooding vocal that sounds far more world wearied than his 20 years." We've been really enjoying the beautifully soothing tunes he's put out this year, and his new track London Stock is no exception - so we're making it our track of the week!

Track of the week: Low Island - 'Hot Air'
Our friends Low Island recently shared their first full length release.

It's a glorious selection of tracks, with lots of our favourites, and features brand new tune Hot Air which we're making our track of the week! Honestly - if we could make the whole of Low Island 17-18 our track of the week, we would... check it out on Spotify here!
