November 13, 2018 Jonathan Aird 0
It’s a packed out Corn Exchange for the first night of Seasick Steve’s first UK tour since 2015. Much has changed since his famous Hootenanny breakthrough moment, not least that the audience is now predominantly middle-aged […]

Darlingside + Wildwood Kin, Shepherds Bush Empire, 1st November 2018

November 12, 2018 Martin Fisher 0
Only the occasional faint clanging of the bar can be overheard whilst Darlingside play. The audience are fittingly pin drop silent to embrace all the intricacies the band offer. Huddled up shoulder tight to harmonize around a single […]
