our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Falling” from The Late Freddie Price! โ๏ธ
we’ve covered Freddie’s music a bunch lately, and he’s been making his mark on the Manchester scene, performing across the city and getting his music out there – and with his descriptive, down-to-earth and relatable lyrics, his blend of folk, rock and blues, he’s ensuring his position as one to watch ๐
this new single “Falling” sounds mega, a more upbeat 60’s rock influence to the track, and it’s got a superb rhythm to it right from the get-go, and with a jangly guitar pattern, lovely vocal harmonies and his simple yet effective lyricism, you can hear the feel-good elements to the track immediately. his vocal takes centre-stage and ensures the listener’s attention, and it’s got a lovely bassline that compliments the drumwork, creating a great space for the foundation of the track. it’s a proper great listen, and well worth checking out! ๐ค
you can find the track on all streaming platforms, and there’s a music video available to watch on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuUItjZXxEg – give it a watch! ๐น

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Forever” by HealeyBadger! ๐
we’ve had HealeyBadger perform for us a good few times now at our open mics, and we’re always blown away by their professional performances, their quality songwriting talent and excellent musicianship – it’s not hard to see why they’ve been going down a storm across the North West and beyond at their gigs ๐ถ
this new single sounds incredible, with a real jazzy element right from the get-go, a lovely feel good atmosphere with the rhythm sections in perfect sync, creating a fantastic soundscape, and a brilliant backdrop for the lead vocal to take charge – Di’s vocals sound amazing here, and her delivery is top-notch; really outpouring the emotion and feelings to make this track one to remember. the backing of the bass and drums give the track a real sense of groove, accentuating the silky pianowork – it’s a super lovely listen ๐ง
to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Scatterchild releasing their single “Bleep Test” with us yesterday, there’s a brand new live video of it recorded at Sacred Trinity Church out now! ๐
our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Such A Long Time” from Kyle Toolan! ๐ถ
we’ve known Kyle for a good while now, having had him perform at our open mics, gigs and the such over the last few years, and we’re massive fans of his music – intricately-written tracks, with a real passion put into each of them, and his drive and motivation to create is always inspiring ๐
this new single sounds fantastic, with having listened to his previous tracks a bunch we knew we were in for something special but it sounds even better than we expected! his lyricism here is on-point, raw and personal emotion poured into every line, guitar melodies that compliment his vocal lines expertly, and a full band backing sound to give it a real sense of groove – it’s a superb listen! it gives us vibes of 90’s alternative rock bands, yet mixed in with a 70’s mellow songwriter style; giving that nostalgic feel yet still modern and unique to himself. ๐
we’ve had some incredible nights down at the Eagle Inn over the past few months for our “The Monthly Spread” shows ๐๏ธ
with so many amazing artists gracing the stage for us, so many lovely intimate performances from the best of what Manchester has to offer – we love to see it, and super grateful for everyone who’s both performed and supported the nights ๐ถ
our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Clear Cut” from Tallulah Guard! ๐
it’s safe to say we’re huge fans of Tallulah’s music, having had them perform for us a bunch over the past few years and covering a load of their previous tracks, all of which are incredible ๐
this new single proves that Tallulah’s releases can only get better and better, getting into it right from the get-go with a full band sound, with crisp production and a real driving groove to it – opening up for their vocal to take centre-stage on the first verse. Tallulah’s lyricism is direct, raw and honest – a real down-to-earth sense to their writing, and this track not only feels like a real insight into their feelings, but written with expert prose and poetic ability. with anthemic choruses, a real 90’s alternative reminiscence present yet a modern, unique atmosphere, they’ve put out an incredible track that not only speaks to the modern society of today, but directly challenges the status quo in a expertly crafted manner. ๐ค
you can find the track on all streaming platforms, and there’s a music video available to watch on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHY5oS79UP – well worth checking out! ๐ฅ
