The New Immigrants are No.1 with 'Heavens of Water'.
They are a band from London, UK.
Members are Justin Sbresni, Ian Olney, Chris Merry, Davide N, Johnny Hutchinson and TJ Cameron.
'Heavens of Water' is their first single. It's taken a while to weave through the narrow streams of FAB Land, but somehow they locked onto a passing branch and heaved themselves up to solid ground.
They have had only one argument in three years, so maybe they'll be around for a while.
Among their influences, they list The Smiths, The Sadies, The Decemberists, Tim and Jeff Buckley and a few others ... but it seems to us that The New Immigrants have their own fresh sound.

Mike Soapaman Read moves up to No.4 with 'Wash Your Hands'.
Mike is a Radio DJ, writer, journalist and television presenter in the UK. He's been a broadcaster for more than 40 years, and is best known for his association as a DJ with Radio 1 and most recently 'United DJs'.
This is the first time a song has entered The FAB Chart which has also been a kind of public information jingle.
It's catchy ... which is half the objective ... and it sticks in the mind, which is more than most of the modern Eurovision Song Contest entrants do.
Alongside music, Mike is involved in modern contemporary art.
Like everyone else, he is concerned about COVID-19 but, as the song says, 'don't be concerned by mass hysteria ... remember to "WASH YOUR HANDS".

Mindy Gledhill moves up to No.12 with 'Rabbit Hole'.
Mindy is an Indie singer / songwriter from Utah, USA.
She certainly has a rich imagination, which is always good to see or hear. There is a touch of Alice in her current video, but it's her son, Griffin, who stars in it.
Her website says "In Rabbit Hole, Mindy confronts the challenges of life—all its unfulfilled expectations, sudden detours, and existential wounds—and presents us with a silver lining through bouncy rhythms and ballads of unabashed optimism."
Mindy first appeared on The FAB Chart in 2013 with 'Pocket Full Of Poetry'.
She lists The Cardigans, The Sundays, Leigh Nash and Lenka among her influences.
