+Latest Release: Version 0.5.0
+
+++May 2023 - What's New
+
+Release Date: 29.05.2023
+The Peerless-Pi-Player project has been completed and Peerless Player has been updated to connect to a Peerless-Pi-Player so you can view album art and track details of the current playing song in Peerless Player on a remote screen, such as your flat-screen TV or remote monitor using a Raspberry Pi. For more details please see the Pi-Player page of this website.
+The number of songs on the artist's album page above the biography button has been linked to display a table of all the artist's songs. This table can be sorted and filtered as required.
+There have been a few bug fixes and small changes. A bug while fetching album information from Wikidata has been fixed. There has been a small redesign of the main top menu and when editing the database, the cancel button will now take you back to the artist's album page instead of the home page.
+Security updates. Sqlite3 bumped from 5.1.4 to 5.1.5 and http-cache-semantics bumped from 4.1.0 to 4.1.1.
