We’re very happy to bring you a brand new Artist of the Week on Amazing Breakfast this week in the form of one of London’s most charming folk pop duos, Peter & Kerry.

As well as playing you their brand new single I Don’t Know and an exclusive cut from their forthcoming debut album this week, Georgie chatted to Peter & Kerry on Wednesday morning about how they came to meet and the processes behind putting together the new record. Listen to them in conversation right here.

Elsewhere in the world of early mornings on Amazing Radio, you can hear Georgie’s new, hand-picked Track of the Week every day this week from London rascals La Shark. Their new single is Mr Modern Man, launched at a rather lively shindig in Dalston last week.

This week we’ve got something a bit special lined up for you with regards to our Artist of the Week – an acoustic session from Bluebell!

We’ve been giving Normal Heights a lot of love over the past year since we played a demo version, with it being re-vamped and re-issued, we thought their music would sound particularly gorgeous stripped back, and we weren’t wrong. We’ve got three tracks for your ears across the week, and you can listen to Georgie in conversation with Annabel and Charlie here:

 

Here’s the first track they performed, Girls!

 

 

Second track from them is Normal Heights:

We’ve also got a rockin’ new Track of the Week from Pond called You Broke My Cool – listen to it on repeat at your leisure below:

 


 

This week our random tumblr is the brilliant Copy Cats – compendium of awesome covers, remixes and mashups! Anything that links to this video of Fang Island covering Mariah Carey is a winner in our book.

 


 

Latest inductee into the Beard Gallery is another former Artist of the Week as an excuse to play their excellent new record Must Land Running, we welcome ultramark from Stepdad into the facially furnished fold!
