Ordinary Day (Ordinary Town)

The sex drugs and rock’n’ roll of Miles Kane’s debut album is reborn via Mellin’s stomping guitars!

Before things spiral out of control, Mellin’s melodic uplift allows this spikey record room to breathe and is all the better for it.

You and Your Friends

The Ordinary Boys meet Cian Dowling as this mod-cum-rock n roll number sways from fierce licks to great romantic melodies.

‘The Wild’ was released last October and is the lead single form their upcoming debut album ‘Ungtrateful Women’.

Let’s take a look:

The Wild

Their debut single is a glorious escape into the British countryside. Their eloquent harmonies, beset with spring’s eternal hope, can guide you through these bleak winter days.

Ronconi’s fiddle strings bring a rousing warm glow to proceedings whilst the band’s angelic vocals lay bare the fragility of the nature they deftly explore.

New Found World

New Found World is a three-piece punk band from Essex. Its members are Jack Tyler (vocals/guitars), Sai Lindsey (bass/backing vocals), and James Mein (drums).

They recently supported George Sanders and The Parallels at Southend’s iconic venue, Chinnerys, and last week, they sold out a show at Southend’s Ironworks.

Let’s check them out:

A tinge of pop-punk runs through the bassline, but they're onto something far more meaningful via Tyler’s vocals and the devastating distortion they create as a collective.

This tale of mental health and romantic woe is the perfect introduction to a band who are hell-bent on fusing chaos with substance.

Stumbling Through McDonalds

The filth and the fury of Carsick, the mayhem of Transplants, and the post-punk of Hope of the States and Arctic Monkeys form the backdrop to this annihilating anthem.
