Named after the French alpine liquor, Mike Wagstaff\u2019s vocals often alternate and echo with the softer backing of band mate Harriet Wilson, but on Whippet, the latter takes the lead.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Chartreuse - Whippet (Visualiser)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kBWxnHTMCMc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>JENSEN MCRAE | SING FOR MY SUPPER<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/11dABkjSoOjcP9p3TFSNRj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jensen McRae<\/a>\u2019s music is a window into her journals, the pages of which she fills with an almost religious commitment. The results are a stunningly personal insight into the LA native\u2019s life. At just 2.26 minutes long, Sing For My Supper stops you in your tracks, freezing time for the duration, as you share her frustration at devoting her life to music only to see \u2018models with guitars\u2019 arrive on the scene. It\u2019s been a stellar year of new music for McRae, who let Sofar audiences have a sneak peek of some of her material during her Artist-in-Residence stay back in January.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jensen McRae - Sing For My Supper\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UZZnKPhtGuo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>BENJAMIN CARTER | DAYDREAMING<\/h2>\n<p>Upping the energy is a whirlwind from <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/2mN6M9Kde408WNk0YrHnQn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Benjamin Carter<\/a>.
