Harvest Records is pleased to present our first mixtape, featuring 12 songs from 12 Harvest artists, including the likes of BANKS, White Lies, The Preatures, andSyd Arthur, to name a few. Harvest is dedicated to true artist development, with a diverse roster, spanning all genres of music, from every corner of the globe. We hope you enjoy and discover some new music that you love as much as we do. Harvest will donate the net proceeds raised from the mixtape's tips to Oxfam America, to help fund disaster relief efforts in the Philippines. Australian indie-folk sensation BOY & BEAR are celebrating their Gold-certified sophomore album with Harlequin Dream Sampler featuring two stand-out singles from the album (“Southern Sun” and “Three Headed Woman”), plus additional live tracks from their MusicFeeds Session performance. Serving as a warmer, fuzzier follow up to their 2011 debut (the 5 ARIA award-winning Moonfire), Harlequin Dream promises “less rock than the first album, but sexier guitar moments.” Take a listen to the sampler and you’ll find out why The Vine referred to Harlequin Dream as “a glossy journey through 1970s California rock with stronger songwriting and lyrics than you’d expect. And, yeah, the odd sax solo too.” Boy & Bear’s 2014 tour kicks off in Glasgow on February 20, making stops in Europe, North America and Australia throughout the spring.

EXCLUSIVE: The Autumn Defense Eastside Manor Session / Music from Conway, Farewell Drifters, Maggie Chapman and more‏

The Farewell Drifters have been called “the best of what’s next” by Paste Magazine and said to possess an “exuberant musical intelligence” by No Depression. On their Compass Records debut, Tomorrow Forever (due Jan 28), the band takes another musical leap forward solidifying their place among the important bands emerging in the wake of the neo-folk path blazed by the Avett Brothers, Mumford and Sons and Fleet Foxes. The new album was produced by pop-roots specialist Neilson Hubbard (Matthew Perryman Jones, The Apache Relay, Glen Philips) and showcases the Drifters’ Brian Wilson-esque pop sensibility, crystalline harmonies and folk foundations alongside gutsy electric guitar and orchestral-style drums. Download the three-song sampler In the Modern Age to get the first track from Tomorrow Forever, an exclusive cover of ‘Ageless Beauty’ by Canadian indie-rockers Stars, and a harmony-heavy acoustic song from their 2011 album, Echo Boom. There is something so sweet about a good story and Maggie Chapman is one gifted storyteller. That’s exactly what you’ll hear in her Novella release, aptly titled after the literary term for a written piece longer than a short story but shorter than a novel. Maggie Chapman – Novella Edition offers a glimpse into the singer / songwriter’s EP release later next month with four never before released songs including an exclusive bonus track only available on NoiseTrade. Leaning on influences from classic artists and novels, Maggie’s music ties in all the effects of a brilliant story – smart, charming and creative. It seems only fitting that Maggie – who recently set roots in America’s story capital, Nashville – makes a bold statement in her debut with a captivating collection of songs from start to finish.
