We are loving Haters, a new song by Baby Baby released as a digital single last week on Gospel Rhythm Recordings. It is a no holds barred, adrenalin fuelled onslaught on the senses that overdoses on energy and a good time vibe. This is rock’n’roll as it was meant to be played – simple, loud, and raw with big fat guitar riffs, clattering drums and … Continue reading Introducing >>> Baby Baby

The sound of Paradise is one steeped in fuzzed-out garage stomp and unhinged visceral jams. The title track from their forthcoming album Diary Of An Old Soul is so authentically primal, so reverential in its steady blues chug and psych-pop overcoat that is should come with a “If found, please return to the 60s” sticker. Marvellous stuff – listen for yourself. The album is out … Continue reading Introducing >>> Paradise

It is raw, rootsy, psychedelic pop rock, digging deep into three-part harmonies and arranging songs that’ll make your dad’s toe tap, your mom’s hip shake, and your sister’s heart throb. A style reminiscent … Continue reading New Album From Cheers Elephant
