In 2016 the prog world lost one of its greatest musicians. Keith Emerson was the Hendrix of the Hammond organ, a showman par excellence and a prog rock legend – but offstage he was modest and unassuming. His partner Mari Kawaguchi, son Aaron and daughter-in-law Jo share memories of the man they knew out of the limelight.“When I first met him, I had no idea who he was,” says Mari Kawaguchi, Keith Emerson’s life partner from 2006 until his death a decade later. She was working at Yale Medical School in Connecticut when she saw a flyer for the Keith…
The Spikes extend their visual and sonic universe through The Session, a Rome-shot Spring/Summer 2026 campaign with L.G.R that integrates product directly into the recording environment,removing separation between brand and creative process.

Dale Watson figured it out. He figured out what’s wrong with our disconnected, polarised era. He figured out why we’re caught in a death spiral of social media outrage, intractable positions, and argument instead of dialogue. And it’s so simple. It’s been right there all along: Bucket seats.“I had an epiphany about the one thing that divided society and separated people from each other,” Dale says. “Bucket seats. If we just went back to bench seats, I think we’d all get along a lot better.”This revolutionary philosophical approach is all about empathy. “With bench seats, three guys get into a…
“This is a song about when you feel good but you already know you’re gonna feel bad,” says Katy Beth Young AKA Tenderness, introducing the exquisitely bittersweet “Salt Flats”. She pauses for a beat before adding: “And it’s my happiest song!” Luckily, at the revived Club Uncut, we are mad for sadness. Beginning her captivating solo set with homesick Appalachian folk song “The Very Day I’m Gone”, Young goes on to reveal herself as the millennial Patsy Cline, the casually magnificent swoop of her voice turning romantic disappointment and quarter-life ennui into something almost euphoric. The Blue Basement holds good…
