Live Review: Dawes
Dawes || The Bullingdon Arms, Oxford || Sunday 15th July Unavoidable delays meant we missed the undoubted delights of Jonny Corndawg as support to Laurel Canyon’s Dawes, and by the time we squeezed into the back of a packed Bully, the main attraction were already taking centre stage. Still riding high on the acclaim for last year’s excellent Nothing Is Wrong release, which featured in many … Continue reading Live Review: Dawes

At midnight last night, the wonderful Felice Brothers released God Bless You Amigo – a new ‘album’ of 20 songs (eight traditional folk songs and twelve originals the band have always liked “but never had a chance to put on record“) as a digital download from their website for a paltry $5 minimum purchase. They are adamant it is not a follow up to Celebration Florida, … Continue reading New Felice Brothers Record – $5 Download

Download Kyle Adem – The Sunlight … Continue reading MM Shorts 193: Another From Kyle Adem

It switches from the full on freakout of album opener Different and the fizzing previous single Submarines to slower paced jams like Beasts And Cartoons (Rope And Sand). In fact it is this confident and easily managed shift of styles throughout that makes the record such a … Continue reading New Album From Nallo
Mrs Mackerel’s TFI Friday (13th July)
A fairly mundane week on the honorary accolades front. Nothing to report. Outstanding pasta salad awarded by Joe Sprat. Superlative nag silently attributed by Teenage Sprat. Tssk. I ask you. The hound came third in the agility group (out of a class of five) in a school dog show and failed to perform for best trick, for which I was photographed taking a sideways swipe … Continue reading Mrs Mackerel’s TFI Friday (13th July)
