Wah Wah 45’s third compilation already! Blimey, time does fly, and with it some artists come and go. Over the past twelve months or so,the label have been lucky enough to hook up with a number of exciting talents and welcome them to the Wah Wah 45s family.

This selection kicks off with the smoky vocals of East London chanteuse Stac, a friend of the label for some time now, who´s not alone in joining the Wah Wah fold. They also welcome Sheffield´s Middlewood Sessions, delivering a pair of 21st Century jazz crackers from the North-East, and two brand new signings: the incredible Ashley Thomas and the very soulful Hardkandy - who both have albums coming on Wah Wah 45s this year.

Other acts continue to progress on the label: Luna & Bazis come through with a very hip re-working of the tune that featured on the last compilation; Speeka deliver one of the instrumental highlights off their brilliant ´Bonfire´ album; and the Colman Brothers do what they do best with their latest club jazz killer. The young bucks are also on display with Jamie Finlay dropping a couple of quality cuts (in anticipation of his debut album, ´Pocket Science´, out later this year) and Scrimshire debuting a brand new joint, and vocal talent, with ´Mistaken´. Relative old timers, and ´the best band in the world´, Talc, are back too of course, with a little teaser from their new album ´Licensed Premises Lifestyle´, out very soon too. All very exciting!
