In Conversation with…VITAMIN
VITAMIN are probably the most exciting new band you’ll hear that have emerged out of the indie pop world, since Foster the People came raging on to the scene at the tail end of the noughties. Their crowning glory is their new single ‘This Isn’t Love’ – a sharp burst of zingy melodic pop, that features […]

Lostboycrow continues to inspire us with his eternally wide-eyed postivity and graceful electro-R&B, alt-pop. He recently released his stunning debut EP ‘Sigh For Me’ – a collection of emotionally-driven and personal stories about the power of infatuation.
In Conversation with…CATTLE & CANE
For Cattle & Cane, they like to keep it in the family. Four out of the five members are related, the other is a family friend.

My Life in Music: PAPER HAWK
Two voices coming together to create a distinct, harmonic tapestry will always be powerful.

Their alt-folk is sewn together by the delicate brush strokes of their infatuating songwriting and deep-rooted […]
In Conversation with…DUA LIPA
Dua Lipa’s pristine pop is infectiously catchy. And even more so, she holds a captivating energy with each and every sweet vocal turn spun from her lips. It’s pop acts like Dua that make mainstream media stand up and shout ‘hell yes’ along with the adoring masses. Pop music has an incredible ability to connect […]
INTRODUCING: ‘Rag’n’Bone Man presents…’ a new live night
Powerhouse soul is what Rag’N’Bone Man deals in. His gritty, street-trodden confessionals bare the weight of the soul, and within that it’s his emotionally candid way of expression that acts as a cathartic release.
Many Things About…JOEL BAKER
Re-invention is always good. It brings about a new way of thinking, it pushes creativity to the forefront and more importantly for the artist, it re-invigorates them. This is true for Joel Baker, the soulful singer has always been drawn to two different worlds.

My Life In Music: SKELETON FRAMES
Exeter’s Skeleton Frames are equal parts haunting and foreboding. The band’s sweet side is spearheaded by singer Emily Isherwood’s rapturous coo, that spirals in and out of focus, its her tormented yet delicate delivery that makes this band so irresistible. Rumbling outwards from the core of the five-piece is their self-contained cacophony – a rough-around-the-edges distorted ravage of […]
My Life in Music: ASYLUMS
Southend-on-Sea may not be notorious for it’s musical exploits but with a new wave of bands coming through, it’s impossible not to take notice of the town’s new blood. Case in point is rabble-rousing foursome Asylums.

In Conversation with…KING CHARLES
The purity of an artist’s vision can sometimes get lost in a minefield of opinions and strategy. And when that vision is blurred, it loses its original authenticity – the essence of what made it a true expression of the artist’s soul in the first place. So sometimes stripping back to basics is necessary. A return […]
My Life In Music: BLACK SURF
Leeds band Black Surf have an unusual backstory – forming two years ago through the wonders of FaceTime and dropbox, which also involved crossing countries (between Leeds, UK and Sydney, Australia). It may be an unconventional way of starting a band but we’re bloody glad that they did. Their debut single ‘Lights Out’ is a […]

In Conversation with…HER
From the first hit of snaps and claps to it’s slow building groove, ‘Five Minutes’ is pop at its best. Hook-filled, dynamic and alluring. This is HER – the French duo that have captured the world’s attention off the back of two stunning singles. These suavely dressed gentlemen are hot property.
Many things about…FAIRCHILD
