Gabriel Moreno “Wound In The Night”

August 24, 2023 Paul Kerr 0
Song poems with a continental bent which ultimately fail to spring to life. While the sainted saviour of dull Sunday mornings, Cerys Matthews, has said that Gibraltar-born troubadour Gabriel Moreno is “an offshoot of Leonard Cohen […]

The Nadas “Come Along For The Ride”

Stellar Jays “Early Winters”

August 23, 2023 Alan Fitter 0
A superb debut album from the Seattle-based band that has something for everyone. In these days of streaming, it probably doesn’t matter what the first track on an album is as the listener can decide what […]

Eric Anders and Mark O’Bitz “Answers Belie”

August 23, 2023 Guy Lincoln 0
Prolific yet profoundly disaffected Californians deliver downbeat verdict on the world. ‘Answers Belie’ is a new record by Eric Anders and Mark O’Bitz. It is fashioned and delivered with a real sense of purpose, there is […]

Whitney K “Vivi”

August 22, 2023 Keith Hargreaves 0
Immediate and compelling live document of career so far. This album is not what the general public require at this time from Whitney K. It is, of itself, a raw, raucous and intimate thing to be […]

Freddy Trujillo “Ave Trujillo”

The Delines’ bass player watches his fifth solo album fledge and take flight. Freddy Trujillo is, of course, the bassist for Richmond Fontaine and The Delines, but he has his own solo career that sees this, […]

It’s getting into that busy, post-festival part of the year with an impossible number of gigs coming up through the Autumn. It could have been Grace Petrie at Union Chapel, or Cohen Braithwaite-Kilcoyne at the Ivy […]

December 21, 2021 3
I have a guilty secret; I’m a jazz fan and it’s pretty much all Miles Davis’ fault. Back in the 80s, I was a jobbing tour and production manager, working with various bands on the road […]
