English singer-songwriter Katy J Pearson has just released her third album "Someday, Now", which sees the indie-folk artist reconnect with people around her while drawing in 1980s-tinted aesthetics. We also hear from Xavier Boyer, the singer of the indie-pop French band Tahiti 80, who are celebrating their 25th anniversary with a tenth album, "Hello Hello". Plus we take a look at new releases by The Cure, who are releasing their first album in 16 years; and Tyler, The Creator, who is back in full form with his seventh studio album "Chromakopia".

Tahiti 80 are nothing if not pleasantly contradictory, or, at least, that’s what we’re more or less led to believe after basking in the warm glow of their debut album, Puzzle. They shared an affinity for indie bands when singer Xavier Boyer and bassist Pedro Resende met at university, and that affection for American stylings led, of course, to a band that sounds, well…completely French. We unearth a few nuggets along the way, from the fact that Fountains of Wayne’s Adam Schlesinger was (ahem) instrumental in contributing, to the fact that Tore Johansson produced the record in Sweden, and there is a clear kinship that feels Cardiganesque. They’re also rather funny (see Mr. Davies), and a somewhat fey, but these guys know a hook when they find one, apparent on Heartbeat. We regale you with tales like the time Ryan and I chatted them up after a show at Austin’s late lamented version of Emo’s (the inside room, which never saw a health inspection it could pass…or care to). Saddle up, and bring a beret.
Tahiti 80's frontman and principle songwriter, Xavier Boyer, one of the most distinctive and loved voices in indie rock, further propels French rock on its upward spiral with this long awaited solo record, recorded under the name Axe Riverboy, (an anagram of Xavier's name). Listen while Boyer explains the meanings behind each song before you hear it. A blend of superb songwriting, sing-a-long choruses, ringing guitars, and compressed pianos. A warm rediscovery of rock and pop with folk overtones, brilliantly drawn from the sounds upon which early Tahiti 80 thrived.http://www.mintyfresh.com/promo/PODCAST/axeriverboy/tututotango_podcast.mp3
