Noah Reid “Adjustments”

July 27, 2022 Ian Kennedy 0
Well-observed reflections on life delivered with a powerful musical ease. Have you noticed how music and album reviews can often head off down some side track focussing, or even fixating, on what the ‘other thing’ is […]

Connor Garvey “Another End to a Year”

July 27, 2022 Rhys Kelly 0
A sincere, soulful and accomplished album.  ‘Another End to a Year’ is the first full release by award-winning songwriter Connor Garvey since 2014. According to its press release, the album has had a long and ‘perilous’ […]

Tom Skinner’s Science Project “First Set”

July 27, 2022 Jonathan Smith 0

The Sparklers “Miss Philadelphia”

July 26, 2022 GrahamBollands 0
Loud, melodic rock and roll best played at full blast. This loud, melodic band from Philadelphia, who have been recording and playing together since 2001, are clearly fans of and influenced by The Clash, The Replacements […]

Live Review: Leah Blevins, Rough Trade, Denmark Street, London – 26th June 2026
