Single Review: Goodguy Sun by Karla Kane (2018) (Big Stir Records)

I always associate LA based Big Stir Records with the sort of warm, vibrant, rock laced power-pop that you really should seek out to accompany every good time. This aesthetic could sound generic, however label owners Rex Broome and Christina Bulbenko have displayed the delightful habit of always finding and backing those bands that have an edge / indecipherable quirk that makes them different.

Album Review - Incidental Lightshow by The Armoires (2016)

I come from a small town in the UK. It has very little really apart from the head quarters of Thomas Cook, a very large mushroom processing factory, a large railway station and a stunning 9th century cathedral smack bang in the middle of the town centre.

I used to go to the cathedral a lot as a teenager when I was on some sort of a mission to try and understand religion and whether I believed or not. On more than one occasion I wondered into the cathedral to listen to the beautiful choirs that used to practice for their regular recitals.
