Firestations

Firestations are new to me. Kinda down tempo pop music. The singer has one of those voices that can grab you if your mood is right.

Night Flowers

From London. New to me, are NIGHT FLOWERS. A tiny hint of early Pains of Being Pure At Heart on this one. Nice.

Without Feathers

Without Feathers are Nat Johnson, Emma Kupa and Rory McVicar. They played the odd box weekender last weekend. They were fab. These are their first recordings.

Loop

Loop have announced that they have reformed. I saw this band a fair few times in the late 80s and the early 90s. They were a force of nature. I shall have to see what Loop 2013 have to offer.

The Wendy Darlings

One of my favourite bands, The Wendy Darlings have posted a new song/video. It’s bloody brilliant.

A new band from London. Bloomer. This filmed at an Odd Box night I put on.

Standard Fare

Last Saturday was the final Standard Fare show. They played the 100 Club in London as part of Popfest. They were amazing. I was too busy being happy to be sad it was over. A few days later and I’m now a little sad.

The Fireworks

I am biased. The folks in The Fireworks are friends of mine. But. BUT, even if they weren’t this would still be a killer song from a great up and coming EP. Out soon on Shelf Life Records.

Plateaus

A single released on Hozac Records. Plateaus are from San Diego. I like.
