NEW ALBUM: ‘SHOOT ME YOUR ACE’ - OUT NOW

You may know that every year, I make my poor brother sit through the entirety of THE BRIT AWARDS (or is it just THE BRITS nowadays) to provide some commentary on the movers and shakers that the major record company bosses are showering with money these days, from what I saw on the socials with Sam Smith turning up in an over-inflated gimp suit, there will be much to cover so let’s get cracking…..

A cold Saturday night on Plymouth’s Mutley plain, not the place I would have chosen to be unless I had a reason to be there but luckily for me, I did have a reasons to be there, I had a ticket to a gig at The Underground to see Bristol based 4 piece punk outfit CUFFS who were being supported by three immense acts, No-Robell, Fluff & The Likelihood.

We caught up with Emily and threw a ton of questions at her, some of them stuck, here’s her answers to the ones that did…..

After a riotous night at The Underground when they last played, Plymouth once again welcomed THE VELVET HANDS as they showcased tracks from their new album SUCKER PUNCH
