Sarah McQuaid “The St Buryan Sessions”

October 15, 2021 Russell Murphy 0
More of the same throughout. As we have seen with so many artists impacted by the pandemic in terms of tours and gigs simply vanishing overnight, retreating into whatever song writing cubby hole suits to create […]

Kyle McKearney “Down Home”

October 15, 2021 Alan Fitter 0
From “We Will Rock You” to “Down-Home” is quite a journey for Kyle McKearney. What links ‘We Will Rock You’ the loud, bombastic stage musical that uses Queen’s extensive catalogue to a gentle, delightful album of […]

Larry Fleet “Stack Of Records”

October 14, 2021 Mark Nenadic 0
Little to cheer about. Formulaic, commercial contemporary country. Beard? Check. Hat? Check. Let’s get started. Larry Fleet is a Tennessee native, and his brand of Americana is straight down the middle, radio-friendly contemporary country. Lyrically, these […]

Gregory Dwane “Gregory Dwane”

October 14, 2021 Helen Jones 0
A strong and well-considered debut album with excellent production. You would be forgiven for assuming that because Gregory Dwane’s self-titled album is the first full length record he’s released that he’s new to the industry, but […]

Lilli Lewis “Americana”

October 13, 2021 Keith Hargreaves 2
Classy, thoughtful album from a striking talent. The self-professed Folk Rock Diva Lili Lewis returns to recording with a rootsy, country soul album that really hits the spot with its melancholy meditations and narratives. Opening with […]

Tough Old Bird “Wednesday’s Child” – keeping it all quiet

July 7, 2026 0

Video: Ryan Bingham “Let the Big Dog Eat” ft. The Texas Gentlemen

July 7, 2026 0
The latest single from Ryan Bingham is a roaring rock and roll number. Let the Big Dog Eat features pulsing, pounding keys, dirty-sounding slide guitar and an infectious rhythm. Bingham’s rocking voice is powerful and gruff, […]

For the Sake of the Song: Danny O’Keefe “Good Time Charlie’s Got The Blues”

July 6, 2026 0
