Taken off his 24th album called ‘About The Time Is Now‘, Jim Page shows us his incredibly inspiring experience from touring in 17 countries on his latest single about making do with what you have on ‘Sleepin’ on a car seat‘.

Jim Page is a highly-regarded and much-respected Seattle, USA-based indie folk singer-songwriter who is the type of rare prolific artist who has played so many gigs that his name is entrenched into the souls of music lovers wherever he travels.

”The core 3 players; Jim, Dune (bass), and Joel (drums); recorded ensemble, each in isolation. The other parts were added individually later. It had to be that way. The ideas came together during the summer of street uprisings and climate change fires, and you can hear some of that in the music.” ~ Jim Page

Jim Page is one of the most beloved musicians around and returns with another glorious soundtrack that should be lodged into our minds forever. This is the message about sleeping where you must – as you get to the next day – even if it’s not the most comfortable bed you will ever find. With witty lyrics and a smooth vocal ability, this is a really enlightening release made by a true underdog great.

‘Sleepin’ on a car seat‘ from Seattle-based, California-born indie-folk royalty Jim Page is the story about doing what you must to survive in this rather odd world. This is an artist who has travelled all over the world on his mission to get his music out to as many people as possible – while seeing places he probably would love to go back to – while others he will definitely avoid.

We are in the midst of a true storyteller who has blended in wherever he goes and should be admired for never giving up on doing what he truly loves. If you believe in yourself enough and are willing to do what it takes, the quest is always worth it in the end, even if your wallet might go missing sometimes.

Posted on 15 March 2022

After impressing us all with ‘Go Off‘, Ease the Artist returns with a bar-heavy track that will please fans who love it when emcees drop it real and never waiver with ‘Talk‘.

Ease the Artist is a Shrewsbury, UK-based indie Hip hop pioneer who has been away for a few years but is making a return so glorious that they will probably make a movie about him.

”A reflection of different genres, some Motown influence, early 2000 hip hop, R’n’B, Trapsoul. A real mix. We took a long time off from around 2011 & recently started releasing music again.” ~ Ease the Artist

Sparking up our imagination with a seriously excellent flow that reminds you of the greats, Ease the Artist might be underrated but is one of those artists that the underground knows all about. With a top-quality beat and smartly-created bars, this is an outstanding release that will have the real Hip hop heads grinning as they have just won the lotto.

‘Talk‘ from West Midlands, UK-based Hip hop legend Ease the Artist, is a quality track that is all about just going for it when others consume their minds with endless chatter and never bother with that all-important action. He has seen the world for what is it, been down and almost out, but has emerged stronger and is only heading to the top with his winning mentality which is so clear to hear. This is the type of track for anyone who has felt bogged down by others and who needs some vital inspiration, to keep on the path and to never give up. Ever.
