Video: Kings Of The South Seas “Lady Franklin”

September 26, 2017 Jeremy Searle 0
It’s been a while since Kings Of The South Seas put out any new stuff but they’re on tour in October and this dark and sonorous take on the folk classic is marvellous, as is the […]

Video: My Darling Clementine “Yours Is The Cross That I Still Bear”

September 25, 2017 Jeremy Searle 0
Taken from the excellent new album Still Testifying, this is a gloriously soulful song from My Darling Clementine.  Catch them on tour in the UK and Europe from later this week through early November.

September 22, 2017 Mark Whitfield 0
The new single from Glasgow band The Strange Blue Dreams is taken from their forthcoming debut album and was recorded live in one take before being overdubbed with DIY percussion and otherwordly weird things. They told […]

Video: Guy Clark “Desperados Waiting For A Train”

September 22, 2017 Jeremy Searle 0
This week’s retro slot is filled by the peerless and much missed Guy Clark with a 1977 performance of one of his classics.  Have a good weekend, more videos on Monday.

Video: Sadie Trigg “Old Man”

September 21, 2017 Jeremy Searle 1
If your debut single is going to be a cover it had better be a good one and this Colorado singer certainly manages that with this take on Neil Young’s song.  Great vocals, great video too.

To say Ben Vaughn has had an eclectic musical career would be a gross understatement. He grew up in the Philadelphia area, and his journey into music began when a kind uncle gave him a Duane […]

June 3, 2020 0
There’s no getting away from the influences that hang over this record. Opening track ‘Supernatural’ is ‘Dear Prudence’ with added Oasis strings but is a jaunty chamber pop song nonetheless. And it serves as a perfect introduction […]

The Deer “Do No Harm” (Keeled Scales, 2019)

December 19, 2019 1
The Deer are a five-piece band from Austin, TX. They describe themselves as ‘indie folk’, which is slightly disingenuous, because on this evidence they offer far more than that rather limiting label might suggest. Sure, there […]

The Contraptionists “Working Man’s Dread”

June 24, 2021 0
One-man band times two equals more than the sum of its parts. So, here’s the thing. A two-man, one-man band, an industrial folk-grunge experiment where the two protagonists, Paul Givant and Stephen Andrews have set out […]
