With the 50th anniversary of his debut solo album coming up soon and news of The Zombies embarking on a UK tour throughout Feb/Mar 2022, we were given the opportunity to catch up with Colin Blunstone of The Zombies and chat about touring, recently discovered tracks, the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame, social media and an amusing story about a string of dates in the Philippines back in 1967, read on to learn more….

It was a cold and dark November night in Exeter, DAYTIME TV were playing at The Cavern on their much postponed and humorously titled “The Tour That Will Absolutely Happen” Tour. It’s been a while since I’ve attended a gig ‘blind’, I don’t mean that I wore a bandana over my eyes all evening, that would have been a silly idea (especially with all of the steps leading down to the venue), I mean that I’d not had chance to check out the band ahead of the show. I’d received some promo on them including news of the new single and that they’re planning on dropping their debut album in February 2022 but being tied up with work and far too many live shows booked into the diary, I hadn’t had chance to sit and ‘research’ the band at all. It could have gone either way on the night, read on to see how I got on….

As their Autumn tour of the UK came to a close, we were invited to catch the mighty PATTERN PUSHER live at The Barrel House in Totnes, a mere couple of miles from musomuso HQ.

THE CHARLATANS 30TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR DATES THIS WINTER

+ NEW BEST-OF COMPILATION ‘A HEAD FULL OF IDEAS’, OUT NOW

AVAILABLE AS: CD, 2CD DELUXE, 2LP, 3LPX EDITIONS +

T.E. Yates’ brand-new EP, 'Strange Weather', is out now. Consisting of 6 tracks, the EP encapsulates an air of enigmatic folk that also tends to dip into jollier funk-infused rhythms, and profoundly touches on his experiences as a neurodivergent person….

Rich Lown is a singer/songwriter from the south coast of England. Fusing folk and rock with his unique voice, Lown is bringing freshness and honesty to music. Much of his music is a moment of catharsis caught in song through an intuitive process of song writing. It’s natural, catchy and comes from within, proving that songs can be popular and still be soulful.

As his UK tour kicks off, we catch up with GLEN MATLOCK to chat about the early days, musical tastes, dream collaborations and whether or not there will be a 45 year Sex Pistols reunion….

False Alarm is the debut single from forthcoming album ‘Spills’ from Jonn Penney & Dan Worton of Ned’s Atomic Dustbin’s new band ‘Spairs’ released Friday 12th November.

It was a cold November night and all was quiet in the centre of Bristol.......until Don Broco turned up and tore it a new one…..

After a delay to proceedings thanks to everyone’s favourite virus, Suede’s 25th anniversary (shit, really!?) celebration of defining album ‘Coming Up’ continued at the Manchester Victoria Warehouse - a venue this attendee had never, well, attended before, and was surprised to see how “warehouse-y” it really was.

After hearing that The Ciderhouse Rebellion were hitting the road for a mini UK tour, I wanted to find out a bit more about them. I’d heard that their live shows are electrifying as they create music ‘within the moment together’, so each performance is uniquely magical in its improvisatory focus, this led me to think that surely the tracks that they play at shows would sound completely different every time? Read on to find out the answer to this question as well as some fascinating facts about them both, their musical upbringings, the forthcoming project ‘Ironstone Tales’ and their likes and dislikes of touring….

Glasgow’s Walt Disco today share ‘Macilent’, their third single via Lucky Number. The track continues the band’s run of thundering, highly emotive singles coupled with stunning visuals following ‘Weightless’ and ‘Selfish Lover’. The ‘Macilent’ video was directed by Eric J Liddle and Kasparas Vidunas and the release is also accompanied by the announcement of a UK and European tour for next spring including London Scala – tickets are on sale now.

We caught up with King Charles on the last night of their tour in Bristol which must have been a breeze after completing 40 gigs in 40 days....while running 40 marathons from John O’Groats to Lands End (1782km), and what a show he put on.

Seagoth is 20-year-old Georgia Ochoa, a singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer from the northwest of England. Recording in her bedroom, Georgia has been gradually building a loyal following, drawn in by songs such as Internet Cafe (2019) and Eternity (2020), which combine the lo-fi dissonance of bedroom-pop and the striking synth melodies of indie-pop. It was the latter track that brought Georgia to the attention of UK independent label Bytes, who heard it when Andy Bell of shoegaze legends RIDE played it on Soho Radio. (Andy also records for Bytes as GLOK, his electronic alter ego.)

Dry Cleaning continue their incredible year with new tour dates for 2022. Their debut album, New Long Leg, is one of 2021’s most praised albums thus far, championed by The New York Times, The Observer, Pitchfork, New Yorker, The Guardian, and more. Since its release, the band has completely sold out their debut US tour, which starts this Wednesday at Los Angeles’ Teragram Ballroom. The new spring 2022 dates will see the band expand upon their mostly-sold-out UK tour as well as visiting many North American cities for the first-time ever. Tickets for the UK are already available whilst their North American shows will go on sale Friday 12 November at 12pm EST. The band is offering a pre-sale to all subscribers of their mailing list, which will be live Wednesday 10 November at 10am EST. A full list of dates can be found below.
