Sextapes – Subside, Birmingham – 10.12.15
I'm going to start this post off by stating a few things about this gig. Firstly, the venue this gig took place at was brand new and this was the first show they had put on. So, as expected, some technical problems did arise. Secondly, a lot of the technical problems did appear to… Continue reading Sextapes – Subside, Birmingham – 10.12.15
"I don't mind sentimental girls at times…"
Talking to people, whether it’s friends, relatives, strangers, anyone at all, about their music tastes, preferences, what they like and hate, is one of my favourite things. The perfect example of this was recently in my best pal’s car; just me her and the drummer from Sextapes (I’ve done blogs about them in the… Continue reading "I don't mind sentimental girls at times…"
Closure in Moscow – The Rainbow Venues, Birmingham – 08.11.2015
Surprise You're Dead Music always get a good line up, and this was no exception. In one of my favourite venues, an amazing night unfolded... Rubio - Rubio were the first band to play and they were really something else, with a soft rock indie vibe and a style I’d never heard before.

Turbowolf, Beasts & Loom – O2 Academy Birmingham – 13.10.2015
October 28th I and Kirsty (who will be doing some guest posts) took another trip to the O2 Academy in our local town to watch our boys in Beasts whilst they were on tour with Turbowolf and Loom.

Ghost Town & Palisades – O2 Academy Birmingham – 21.10.15
One of the perks of having this one great friend of mine, is she's great for gigs. You wouldn't understand even if I did try to explain, so I'll leave a little mystery. This is another review of a gig I went to recently. Ghost Town headlined, Palisades were their on-tour support and a… Continue reading Ghost Town & Palisades – O2 Academy Birmingham – 21.10.15
When two become… Trapped in your head because they're bangers!
This post is a little different to the usual. I've picked two new songs that have recently been released, to break down and explain why I think they’re so good, and can’t stop listening to them! Ellie Goulding - Something in the way you move. Goulding has released ‘Something in the way you move’ quite… Continue reading When two become… Trapped in your head because they're bangers!
Skywalker – The Rainbow Venues, Birmingham – 14.10.15
As promised I have wrote a little review about the gig I went to last Wednesday (14th October) in my hometown. In this I'm not going to talk about individual songs but more the actual performances. The reason I went to this gig was to support my friends, but it was also the tour… Continue reading Skywalker – The Rainbow Venues, Birmingham – 14.10.15
Album Review #2
Released August 15th 2011. 2011 was the year I left school and began preparing for college. This summer was vital. I was preparing for the rest of my life, following the plan I had so carefully pieced together in my head (or so I thought I had). I'd always been a fan of Charlie… Continue reading Album Review #2
Album (mini) Review #1
I am absolutely in love with Years & Years. I've recently purchased their album and I can safely say there is not a song on there I don't like. The following song is just pure bliss. I love the happy dance vibe; and the way the meaningful lyrics are wove into the music… Continue reading Album (mini) Review #1
