The Zinvandels
Exciting new Welsh rock band, The Zinvandels have made an impressive impact on the music scene at such an early point in their career, with their fourth single soon to be available to the public. The group have managed to inherit a timeless sound by borrowing guitar tones from the 60s and 70s, such influences […]
La French
The name of the artist ‘La French’ had me thinking I would be listening to a world music band, a traditional sound of street music in Paris perhaps, but the music itself couldn’t be more alien to the image of a man dressed with a black and white striped shirt wearing a beret and playing […]
Hobo Johnson @Gorilla Manchester

The radio was dominated by the likes of Arctic Monkeys, Kaiser Chiefs and Franz Ferdinand, and not by strange looking mumble rappers named lil’ (insert whatever word you can think of). It’s easy to feel a bit disenfranchised […]
Indigo Youth-Neon Nights
This catchy gradual beat just erupts in to a killer verse with unusual lyrics. I wasn’t expecting that from Indigo Youth. The Indie pop group with personality, flower the listeners with a sense of quirky synths and a heavy feel of nostalgia. A leading angelic voice becomes backed up with sensational keys and drumming that just […]
Anhedonia-Ride it Out
Who doesn’t love an early Christmas present? No one that’s who, and three days early, the good people from Anhedonia delivered said early present this year, in the form of their debut four–track EP, Ride It Out. The four piece recently signed to the independent record label Sunbird Records, whose roster includes Lancashire favourites The […]
