INTRODUCING: First Pope
The times when you stumble on a new artist and are instantly impressed, are rare. But when these moments come, you know your life will never be the same again. Music can change the way you see the world; one poetic refrain can lift your mood, a shared emotion can help you find solace. To me, a […]

Daydreaming with Maybug
Since Bon Iver’s For Emma Forever Ago crept onto the indie scene like the onset of permafrost, it seems many indie folk artists have strived to match the hushed lure of Justin Vernon’s signature falsetto, while exhibiting little to none of his melodic punch – perhaps confusing the virtuosity and brilliance of Vernon’s songwriting ability […]
TRACK OF THE DAY: Micky Blue – ‘Champagne Reign’
Following on from the haunting power of last single ‘Dark & Stormy’, New York based songstress Micky Blue has released a new addictive gem entitled ‘Champagne Reign’, taken from her forthcoming ‘Wild Things’ EP.
MY LIFE IN MUSIC: Indoor Pets
Jaunty, nimble rhythms race against spry, chugging guitars. It’s clear that Indoor Pets don’t take themselves over seriously, but it’s because of that, that their liberating guitar pop is so successful, instinctively vibrant and genuine. Led by singer Jamie’s spirited vocal and off kilter idiosyncrasies, the songs are delivered with a zestful zing that could […]

MY LIFE IN MUSIC: Storms
London’s Storms combine the best of the 90s to create a sound that is utterly addictive and forthright in its attack on the senses. Abrasive, grungy guitars swirl with melodic Brit-pop, choruses soar and verses croon. Storms latest release ‘Shame’ is a stomping, virile beast – taut and swaggering with sass. It’s a hell of […]

MY LIFE IN MUSIC: Sienna Chorus

Patrick James Gets Between Your Ears

MY LIFE IN MUSIC: Fuoco
Noise has never sounded as good as it does when Fuoco are about. With conviction the duo torment the eardrums with their insatiable, lusty, grunge rock. On last year’s ‘Perverted Gaze’ EP, the duo delivered a melody drenched, squealing succubus of intent: primal and devilishly good. Trust me, just one listen and you won’t be able to […]
SONG OF THE WEEK: BANNERS – ‘Shine A Light’
