LIVE: TUNE-YARDS – 16/03/2018

-ALBERT HALL, MANCHESTER- “I don’t think I’m a Goth, I like pastel shades too much…and GAP tops. I do like Depeche Mode though. Does that count?” These musings came from me, bored at work, before the Tune-Yards gig last Friday. I love Tune-Yards. Their music is spiritual without being annoying and anthemic, without being cheesy. […]
-EAGLE INN, SALFORD- Phobophobes are strangely fearless. As they take to the Eagle Inn tonight, they are ready to take on whatever this Friday night might throw at them, and in short order they have the Eagle Inn bouncing to their quirky, jagged indie psych nuggets. They only just about manage to squeeze their six […]

LIVE: PHOBOPHOBES – 16/03/2018

LIVE: FIELD MUSIC – 16/03/2018

-GORILLA, MANCHESTER- Not an awful lot has come out of Sunderland apart from my Grandpa, the fabulous Andy Dawson from the Athletico Mince podcast and St Bede, the monk. To that list we have now been able to add Field Music. Ostensibly formed of the Brewis brothers – David and Peter – by the time […]
-THE WHITE HOTEL, SALFORD- Hookworms have made the best album of 2018. It’s a provocative statement, especially at the start of March, but right now I believe it to be true. Great albums often come with a backstory, their own built-in folklore, something that can be easily distilled into a short conversation that the record’s […]

LIVE: HOOKWORMS – 10/03/2018

LIVE: GWENNO – 09/03/2018

-GULLIVERS, MANCHESTER- According to the 2011 National Census, there are 577 people that name Cornish as their first language. A small number, but not so bad when you consider that as of the late 18th century, the language was officially extinct. The resurgence has been going for some decades now, and one of the leading […]
-MANCHESTER ARENA- It’s not often that support bands appeal so accurately to the main act’s crowd, but many have made the extra effort to get in early tonight to see John Grant. It’s easy to see why he appeals to Elbow fans, as his songs have a certain depth to them; whether it’s the slow […]

LIVE: ELBOW / JOHN GRANT – 04/03/2018

LIVE: SOCCER MOMMY – 04/03/2018

-THE CASTLE HOTEL, MANCHESTER- Soccer Mommy is the alias for 20-year-old musician and singer-songwriter Sophie Allison from Nashville, Tennessee. After having released two records in the last 2 years, one of which was produced in her very own bedroom, March 2018 has seen the release of her debut full-length studio album, Clean. A few months […]
-THE RITZ, MANCHESTER- I wasn’t sure I’d ever see this to be honest. Paul Draper, former lead singer of britpop heroes Mansun, on stage, not only armed with some solo material but also ready to deploy the entirety of Mansun’s debut album Attack of the Grey Lantern (AOTGL) for the first time after a it […]

LIVE: PAUL DRAPER – 01/03/2018

LIVE: OH SEES / ONCE & FUTURE BAND / MALE GAZE / FLAT WORMS / KELLEY STOLTZ – 01/03/2018

-ALBERT HALL, MANCHESTER- It’s an intensely grim evening in Manchester tonight, but despite that fans are out in force, descending on the Albert Hall for Castlemania: a Castle Face Records showcase event offering five live bands. Opening we have Kelley Stoltz, current San Francisco resident who has been releasing music since 1999 and has been […]
-THE CASTLE HOTEL, MANCHESTER- It’s Friday, it’s cold and I’ve got a last minute gig: Manchester outfit Douga at the warm and old school boozer The Castle; happy days. I love live music in pubs. Before the trendy bars and O2 academies became the staple arenas for every kind of music imaginable, the local watering […]

LIVE: DOUGA / CHEW MAGNA – 23/02/2018
