Four Decades of Folk Rock is an expansive box set, allowing one disc and over an hour of music for each decade. For those who would argue that folk-rock was primarily a 1960s phenomenon in the United States and a '60s and '70s phenomenon in Britain, the box counters that the musical strains of folk-rock have informed everyone from R.E.M. to the Bangles to David Gray. It's unlikely, though, that anyone but record shop nerds and music historians will be very interested in the debate. For everyone else, the set will be measured by the quality of the music itself, and on that account, Four Decades delivers a remarkable set list.

More Than A Whisper: Celebrating The Music Of Nanci Griffith is an all-star tribute to the legacy of the GRAMMY award-winning singer, guitarist, and songwriter.

'Saved By The Girl' is a trip back through the 90s, the defining decade when female musicianship took centre-stage, from the guitar infused alt-pop/rock of The Cardigans, Garbage and The Cranberries – to the fiercely independent singer-songwriter style of Sarah McLachlan and Joan Osborne. They sit alongside some the decade's biggest selling artists that paved a way for a strong and enduring female identity for those who grew up in 90s, including Natalie Imbruglia, Tina Arena, TLC, All Saints, Sixpence None The Richer, Moloko, Sinead O'Connor, The Fugees, Everything But The Girl – plus many more. The 37 track album features 21 UK Top 5 hits across 2CDs, including 6 No 1s – all spanning from 1990 to 1999.

Like politics, journalism has been turned topsy-turvy by the presidency of Donald Trump. Covering Politics in the Age of Trump takes a wide-ranging view of the relationship between the forty-fifth president and the Fourth Estate. In concise, illuminating, and often personal essays, twenty-four top journalists address topics such as growing concerns about political bias and journalistic objectivity; increasing consternation about the media's use of anonymous sources; the practices journalists employ to gain access to wary administration officials; and reporters' efforts to improve journalism in an era of twenty-four-hour cable news.

Kindled by an awareness of divine guidance and conscious connection with spirit, new age singer/songwriter and Music Medicine Woman Kimberly Haynes delivers her debut album, Awaken Me, which brings forth an uplifting invitation to discover a sacred space deep within the heart. The spectrum of her eclectic and enlightening vocal performances evokes both the tenderness of a mother’s touch and the ancient feminine power of a tribal priestess singing her truth for the betterment of the community. The album, subtitled “Songs From the Heart of a Seeker,” is a musical journey of discovery, healing, personal growth and devotion.
