Jinder “Kingsize Blackfoot” (Din of Ecstasy 2017)

July 21, 2017 Dave Clarke 1

The Deslondes “Hurry Home” (New West Records, 2017)

July 21, 2017 Paul Kerr 0
Five divergent musicians who eventually found each other in New Orleans, The Deslondes follow up their impressive 2014 debut album with the equally fine Hurry Home. Less country inclined than its predecessor the album finds the […]

With a CV as long as your auntie Susan’s shopping list, The Americans certainly win the prize for putting in the effort: previously serving as the backing band for Luncinda Williams, Nick Cave and Courtney Love […]

Shakin’ Stevens + Danni Nicholls, York Barbican, York, 19th May, 2017

July 20, 2017 Rudie Hayes 0
It’s a big room for the ‘bard from Bedford’, resplendent in a suitably showbiz spangling top. Danni Nichol is comfortable in a room that houses both the UK snooker championships and Amy MacDonald in a few […]

For Hal Cannon, life should be very simple – love the place you live, love the ones you know, if you’re needy, why not give, then see if you’re still low. Words to live by, extracted […]

Video: Bonnie Whitmore “I’ll Make A Living”

Taken from the new album F*ck With Sad Girls, this is a proper hooky country rocker that Tom Petty would be proud of. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vo3zF-A1pg8
