Peter James Millson “Mobile” (Haven, 2017)

September 4, 2017 Owen Gillham 0
Produced by the acclaimed songwriter, Boo Hewerdine, this record is the third by photographer Millson (who has worked for no less than the NME and the Guardian). Clearly an unassuming chap, he plays down his music-making […]

David Ramirez “We’re Not Going Anywhere” (Thirty Tigers, 2017)

August 31, 2017 Owen Gillham 0
Given the current climate, this is, at least in part, an album that resonates by painting a picture of a broken, divided world which is conflicted and uncertain. David Ramirez is a clever fellow though and […]
