November 17, 2009 by Gary Evans 

courtesy of sing me a song - flickrTo celebrate the launch of Detour, each week we are going to bring you equally fresh new music to get your lugs ’round. This week we bring you an eclectic mix of hip-hop, indie, rock’n'roll and techno for you audio pleasure.

Plan B – Stay to Long

Returning from his foray into acting, in the brilliant Adulthood and eagerly awaited Harry Brown, East London’s finest is back with his first single since debut album; Who Needs Actions When You Got Words. Soulful crooning and high octane rhymes blend perfectly for Plan B’s most accessible work yet.

Frankie and the Heartstrings – Hunger

Hotly tipped by Detour (then InJournalism) way back in april, this looks set to be the first single for the Mackem indie-popsters. FATH have made a big impression on those in the know since those unsigned days. They are currently being championed by Radio 1’s Huge Stevens and Jo Whiley, and are supporting Florence and the Machine on their nationwide tour.

Little Red – Coca-Cola

Vintage, feel-good, rock’n'roll from this Australian five-piece, complete with shimmering guitars, four part harmonies and hand claps. What more do you need?

Luciano – Los Ninos De Fuera

One for the tech’eads from the Chilean master’s latest studio release, Tribute To The Sun. The album is more experimental than fans have come to expect from the Cadenza man’s DJ sets but, as highlighted by this track, equally as sensational.

We Were Promised Jet Packs – Quiet Little Voices

This one has been around from a while now but for those if who you not familiar with the Glasgow based upstarts, its a great introduction after a sensational live performance at Sunderland’s Independent earlier this month.
