Roxanne de Bastion
Rarely have I come across a record company independent or otherwise that has shown such consistency in the quality of artists that they promote..... step up and take a much deserved bow Director of Folkstock Arts Foundation Helen Meissener . I've just had the pleasure of listening to Roxanne de Bastion who is about to release a double A-side single on the 28th July taken from her self-released Album Heirlooms & Hearsay. Before a musical note had left the laptop speakers I was already intrigued by her promo photos & an Audrey Hepburn vibe, they spoke of mystery and stories to be told and I was eager to hear them. First up, Heart of stone that begins "I woke up feeling old" ....yup! I was sold, a lyrically beautiful song that I'm sure many will relate to?
