REVIEW: Ocean Colour Scene supported by Burr Island at Bristol Beacon 4/12/23
Three words that meant a lot to me in the 90’s were Ocean, Colour and Scene, put them together and you have the name of a British rock band that rose to fame during the madness that was known as the Britpop years. After touring with the likes of Paul Weller and OASIS, they were picked up by a major label and their music became nationally and internationally know. Despite their sophomore album ‘Moseley Shoals’ picking up mixed to positive reviews, it went on to produce 4 singles "The Riverboat Song", "The Day We Caught the Train", "The Circle" and "You've Got It Bad" which all charted well at the time, securing them national radio play and even a slot on the bill at the famous Knebworth gigs that OASIS put on in 1996.

Read MoreREVIEW: Sleaford Mods, supported by Big Special & Emily Breeze - 02 Academy Bristol 30/11/2023
I’ve been excited about this gig since its announcement and even more so when I saw who had been chosen by Sleaford Mods as Support. With Big Special and Emily Breeze transforming this from a great to an excellent lineup for me and a few friends. Anticipation levels were high as we all got together in Bristol’s oldest pub, ‘The Hatchet’ for a few pre-show drinks. This is pub that always brings back memories from past gigs as it’s situated a stone’s throw from tonight’s venue, Bristol’s very own 02 Academy. This gig sold out ages ago, I think this had something to do with the quality of support acts, so I felt lucky to have been given the chance to attend and pen a few words.
