Artwork for Andrew Farriss album

Andrew Farriss “Andrew Farriss”

April 9, 2021 Alasdair Fotheringham 0

April 9, 2021 Tim Newby 0

EP highlights Brown’s polished vocals, while staying within the well-worn safety of a simple pop-country vein. California based singer-songwriter Francesca Brown’s latest offering is a six-song EP, ‘Live From the Quarantine’. As the name implies the […]

Lawrence Rothman “Here Lies Love / Sawdust to Stardust”

October 1, 2026 0

Powerful confessional lyrics drive Lawrence Rothman’s journey to the dark side of Americana. For their fifth album, Here Lies Love / Sawdust to Stardust, Lawrence Rothman has brought an ‘A‘ list of collaborators, including Madi Diaz, […]

Petunia live at the Kitchen Garden Cafe, Birmingham - 24th September 2026

Live Review: Petunia (solo without The Vipers), The Kitchen Garden Café, Birmingham – 24th September 2026

October 1, 2026 0

The Kitchen Garden Café in King’s Heath, Birmingham, makes you glad people still believe in putting good music in small rooms. Attached to a restaurant and garden centre by day, it becomes an intimate music venue […]
