‘Mother’ is a powerful new song from the star shaped, multi-talent-tasking, Anna Wolf,

Tunefully heartfelt, the aim is to be an enigmatic salve where grief from loss, in it’s many forms, comes from so many angles.

The result is a stark and beautiful comfort which reaches out with winter cool chords and solace warm vocals that are simultaneously fragile, strong and lyrically relatable;

“I don’t wanna breathe when you’re not here”

‘Mother’ is for the many.

“As some of you may know, this is a very personal song for me, I wanted to capture the raw essence of grief and acknowledging that it's okay to not be okay... I have lost a few very close people to me over the past three years and it has not been easy”.

The song serves as a source of solace and hope if you are struggling to move forward after losing a loved one, reminding you that you are not alone and that healing is possible, even with a broken heart."

The video is a short film at one with itself, the song and performance. A personal artist and audience one-to-one feeling is created by the cinematic simplicity of being filmed with music photography legend, Paul Harries; one on one:

One camera, one tripod and one torch creating one sonic drama. The trust from their friendship and working relationship makes for personal viewing.

Multi-talent tasking?

There are many layers to Anna Wolf, an artist who has achieved much but still has more to be revealed.

The eternal invention of presenting soundscapes being one facet. Then there’s the experience of Anna Wolf’s live show: A main stage drama. Hooked and down the front again for the launch of Kick Out The Jams new venue (Two Palms at Hackney Empire) recently. Anna Wolf and her band are a world class rock show! - Room. Stunned. Again.

Forever Young

As 2024 looms, Anna Wolf‘s big-screen debut is the (already award winning) new movie ‘Forever Young’. (FB movie trailer)

An imaginative sci-fi drama, directed by Hank Pretorius. It’s currently showing in USA and Canada - with South African screenings in December. Anna Wolf’s music is on the soundtrack, a perfect setting for such cinematic sound.

An Artist to investigate but also look forward to

‘Mother’, is it’s own short film and could, in many ways, be a song for the loss of the world that we thought we knew. For many, this decade, especially…

The lasting impression of the song, which prompted this feedback article, is a balance between outpouring and resilience. Empathetic art like this, transports us to future hopes. All is not lost.

New VOODOO RADIO single and album!

Woohoo, who do the voodoo two do?

Out now: ‘TURN OUT THE LIGHT’ the new single from VOODOO RADIO (Holy Dotage Records)

‘Turn Out The Light’ is energised air-pumping punkabilly roc,k for turning up loud to jump n shout along to.

A new cosmic-beat outfit of generation tremorists, Voodoo Radio are Paige (vocals - she bangs the drums) and Tony (rock n roll guitar riffs).

At the end of January 2022, these cumbrian power-punks will unleash ‘POP PILLS’ - a debut 10” mini-album of eight self-penned, infectious pop gems of relentless, raw power.

If you’re bored with the establishment’s idea of what a band should be, you’re gonna love the way that Voodoo Radio are driving their own story - it’s like punk actually happened.

As a Shampoo fan, I hear where they’re coming from. Tony is a seasoned performer who was inspired by hearing Slaves on the radio. Unafraid to glam rock a guitar solo, he suggested to his daughter, Paige: “get two shoe boxes, anything that’s like a drum stick – a table knife and a wooden spoon and see if you can sing and play rhythms whilst hitting a beat”. Fuck, yeah, that’s worked an absolute treat.

In 2018, the hard working duo started rocking the tunnels of Central London’s Leicester Square tube station.

Their presence stopped commuters and tourists in their tracks with mesmerising ‘summer of 76’ power-pop.

TARDIS time travel from tube tunnels, through Planet Earth’s white mirror looking glass of the last few years, to 2021.

Fresh, fierce and full on ready to bring it.

Pre-order the debut VOODOO RADIO album, ‘POP PILLS’

The October 2021 debut single, ‘SPACE GIRL’, was recently on America’s iconic Rodney On The Rock radio show, as well as being track of the week on the BBC! A hint of B52s x The Cramps but a 21st century guitar-licked sound of their own.

p.s. I really enjoyed my first glimpse of Voodoo Radio live on stage this October.

Kick Out The Jams sure know how to pick out the glams. “How freaking cool.” TheZineUK remarked, capturing half a minute on our instagram.

After their set, I tried to join their mailing list without my specs on in the semi-dark of gigworld.

Bless the band for replying:

“Were really sorry but we didn't catch your name at the Amersham Arms we've got your email address and you wrote in our book that you didn't have your glasses so you've written it extra big Haha! Please let us know who this mysterious person is lol.”

It’s me, and I dig it!
