First up is Founder and Editor Sinéad’s top picks in no particular order…
Wyvern Lingo
Wyvern Lingo have blazed their way into the hearts of many with their honest lyrics and lush harmonies. With creativity and compassion, these socially conscious musicians use their storytelling to communicate a message of solidarity and highlight social injustices, particularly on recent release ‘Brutal Lottery’ and ‘Out of My Hands’ from their debut album released in 2018. The band are set to release their second album in 2021.
