Rodina – Good Company (LP) [Rodina Music RODMUS018]

***PRE-ORDER – Est. 27 June 2025***

Rodina is the project of singer-songwriter Aoife Hearty and partner Joe Tatton, keys-player & co-writer from The New Mastersounds and leader of the Joe Tatton Trio. On Good Company, their first new album in 6 years, the two are joined by other great musicians including guitarist Lucas De Mulder, drummer Luke Flowers, The Filthy Six horns, and members of The Haggis Horns, among others.

Like their previous records there is a strong acid jazz slant to many of the songs, whether interpreted through a modern soul lens such as in opener “Simple Pleasures” or swaying more towards cosmic jazz-funk such as “We Go Out Of Our Way” or “Trust In This Life”, which were the first singles lifted from the album.

Throw in some hippy Americana and even a tinge of Gospel and you end up with catchy songs that include both uptempo earworms like the super charged foot stomper “Good People” or the festival anthemic “Inspiration” and some beautiful chilled moments such as “All Over The Sky” and “Flowers”.

Recorded at their small countryside recording studio in the Peak District this is the fourth vinyl produced at their studio after The New Mastersounds’ Old School and Joe Tatton Trio’s Galactico.
