More and more talented artists rise to fame in the music industry each year. In every genre, you might notice there are new names and new music all the time. Some names shake up the music industry. They do this with their music as well as with their different, unique, and somehow out-of-the-world fashion styles. It’s a talent, indeed, to be known for so many things. That’s probably why they will stand out as icons in both the music and fashion industries.

I saw that an OASIS tribute act called OAS-IS were playing a handful of dates including one at The Lemongrove, part of the Exeter University campus, as it was a Friday night, I thought I’d throw my hat in the ring and see what all the fuss was about!

SHARES THE NEW SINGLE ‘DEEPER LOVE’

NEW ALBUM FOLLOWS IN MARCH

ALSO ANNOUNCES INTIMATE UNDERPLAY SHOW AT JACK SOLOMON’S CLUB ON NOVEMBER 27TH

We’d been looking forward to tonight’s show for a few weeks, tickets were purchased as soon as we saw them advertised on their website and with the added bonus of a photo pass being provided by the venue, we were good to go.

“I remember one night in Germany when us and our Crazy Carter Crew went to see the Wonder Stuff play and we got pretty drunk and crowd surfed a bit too much. Miles had to tell us to fuck off because we were ruining the gig”.

We caught up with Jim-Bob (from Carter USM) ahead of him hitting the road with The Wonderstuff of their Nov/Dec UK tour…..

I wanted to tell you about a very special gig that is taking place at The Barrel House Ballroom in Totnes on Saturday 16th November (8pm) with Evi Vine and special guests Soot Sprite. Two absolutely sublime bands live in one night!

Tickets cost just £10 in advance or £12 on the door.

Advance Tickets are available from behind the bar at The Totnes Brewing Company (downstairs from The Barrel House) and ONLINE

Upon hearing that the London based indie-folk-pop girlband called TRILLS are releasing their new single 'Super Blue Moon' on November 15th, I got in touch with them and asked if they’d be up for answering a few questions, the stars clearly aligned as they said YES! We chatted about how the band formed, breaking London and who would be headlining at their very own 3 day music festival….

Upcoming release ​Super Blue Moon​ is a gossamer-like ballad, all diaphanous synths and interweaving ethereal harmonies.

The Brand New Heavies are a band that formed in the mid 1980’s on the back of the rare groove scene in London, they enjoyed phenomenal success in the early 90’s as a forerunner of the Acid Jazz movement and continue to release music and tour the word to this very day. We heard that they were bringing their funky floorshow to Exeter’s Phoenix and wanted to be there to witness the band in action….

I was driving home one evening from a show in Exeter recently and I heard a song being played on Radio 2 by Brad Paisley. He was talking about the artist and said that she was from St Ives in Cornwall, as soon as I got in, I looked her up and thought I’d drop her a line to see if she’s be happy to run an interview feature on the site, she was!

We chatted about a whole bunch of topics including her early days, getting a recording contract and guilty pleasures, read on to see how we got on….

Members of Arcturus, Thorns, Mayhem and 1349 have given black metal fans a tremendous 'brutally raw' debut, coming from these notoriously known Scandinavian legends, it is no surprise that it is brilliant.

BROOKE BENTHAM will join Sam Fender as main support for his sold-out UK+EIRE tour starting on the 22nd of November at Manchester Academy and ending at the O2 Academy in Sheffield.

After hearing of a forthcoming UK tour to promote their latest record ‘TBNH’, we were keen to chat to the band, after a few sketchy phone lines, we finally caught up with Sy Bartholomew from the band in a hotel room nestled in the deepest depths of Croatia where he was resting after a “lovely night of traditional food and wine”. We chatted about the early days, musical formats and what’s on the top of his Christmas list….

Oct & Nov UK live dates announced.

Fresh from a spellbinding performance at London’s O2, TWO DOOR CINEMA CLUB reach Plymouth on the final date of their UK arena tour to promote their fourth long player False Alarm. The Plymouth audience had turned out in their droves on this blustery Sunday evening to catch the band in Devon’s capital city. There were two support acts on the bill with them, BLOXX and SPORTS TEAM, both London based bands who I had never heard of before tonight. We got comfy and waited for the evening to unfold….
