If anyone follows my joint podcast, Hit The North with my good pal, Melissa Bowker (if not, please give us a follow on twitter/instagram @hitthenorthshow - cheers x) then you may remember my list of HTN recommendations on Spotify that I shared a week ago. One band in particular from that list which has grabbed my attention is Liverpool band, The Sonder. Their » Continue Reading

I stumbled across this Yorkshire band a couple of months ago and I would strongly recommend that you give them a listen, especially if you're a fan of Arctic Monkeys and Courteeners. I've been unfortunate to miss out on a ticket to their Manchester Academy 2 gig as it's sold out as well as numerous locations up and down the country! If you're lucky enough to live in a location where the tickets ar... » Continue Reading

I'm aware that it's been a while since my last little blogging frenzy. Maybe I just go through them in sporadic bursts but anyway, to kick start my first blog post in a while is the latest release from The Subways, Fight. This band is quite special to me because I had never listened to them until I watched their set at Kendal Calli » Continue Reading

Almost everyone I know, grew up in a household that owned a copy of 1 by The Beatles or ABBA Gold . Both albums are so good that even those of a heavy metal persuasion would find it hard not to place ABBA in their secret playlist of guilty pleasures and discreetly listen to Super Trouper when there’s nobody around. Don’t get me wr » Continue Reading

"It's a lovely day, rain clears from my feet again." sing The Snuts in their latest single Somebody Loves You. A sweet, feel good song that will make you wish Summer was here already. If you're feeling miserable from Storm Darcy reaping havoc on the country, give this tune a listen and whatever ice, cold negativity is hovering over you will soon melt away as soon as you hear the guitar melody, clo... » Continue Reading

Yesterday, I finally experienced a Lockdown Birthday. When the infection cases were plummeting in Summer, I thought I might have just escaped it but COVID clearly had other ideas and decided that it was only fair that everyone has at least one Lockdown Birthday. So I decided to make the most of it by wearing a plastic tiara whilst drinking cans of lager and playing a Bongos Bingo quiz. A wild 27th... » Continue Reading

When I created a SpaceHey account literally a week ago, it sparked a sudden burst of hunger. A craving, if you will for some early noughties nostalgia. I've spent the last week checking out my Release Radar on Spotify and came across You Me At Six's latest album, SUCKAPUNCH. » Continue Reading

Now, usually not many people out there disclose that they're from a town like Leigh, myself being one of them. There hasn't been much for Leigh folk to be proud of musically unless you count Pete Shelley but even then The Buzzcocks are classed as being from Bolton...and they have Peter Kay! Wigan have The Verve and Starsailor as well as currently having a little baby boom of indie bands emerging a... » Continue Reading

You get up at 5:15am for work. You look out the window, it's dark and there's a white mask of snow covering everything in sight. As well as that, it's drizzling with rain and you're getting to that point of the third lockdown where sometimes you just wish you could close the curtains and get back into bed and hope that when you wake up, it's nice and sunny and Glastonbury hasn't been cancelled. I ... » Continue Reading

What's the only positive thing to come out of a pandemic? I mean that's a controversial question in itself, right? It sounds ridiculous in this context to use the phrase "every cloud has a silver lining." As we've been trapped for almost a year in a dystopian reality, spending everyday watching distressing statistics and figures on the news splashed across yo » Continue Reading
