our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new debut single “Shoot The Cameras” by Frank & The Beats ๐
we’ve known Frank for a good while now, having been performing across Manchester at our open mics, and we’ve popped him on a few solo sets – he’s got a band together now, and we were honoured to have him perform with them at our last “BAKED” band night, they were class ๐
this new single sound lovely, with a lovely ringing acoustic guitar forming the basis of the track, driving rhythm with the bass and drums enhancing the foundation, and lovely guitar riffs throughout the track echoing Frank’s commanding and strong vocal – a great folk-rock tune. the lyricism is on-point, with introspective and thoughtful commentary, proving his ability as a songwriter ๐ธ
this week we’ve been celebrating two of our releases with Narwhals
today was the three year anniversary of our first track with them on the label, “3310 & A Pterosaur“, such a fantastic tune and an incredible indication of their songwriting ability and musicianship
and on Sunday was the one year anniversary of the second to last track we put out with them, “Unstitched” with Thฤ one of our favourites, such a raw track and a fantastic listen!
you can find the tracks on all streaming platforms, and you can purchase them to keep a digital copy for yourself at https://narwhalsuk.bandcamp.com/
our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “News From Nowhere” from Manchester-based psychedelic outfit Cromwell Range ๐ฅ
over the past year or so, they’ve been playing gigs across Manchester, and gaining a name for themselves as ones to watch, with intricate melodies, anthemic choruses and a real sense of musicianship – this is their debut release, and it sounds fantastic ๐
it’s got a lovely groove to it, the bass and drums in perfect unison to create a gorgeous backdrop, and the atmospheric guitar tone really sets the scene – plenty of space for the main vocal to take command ๐ค the organ that comes in from the second verse compliments the song so well, giving a 70’s psychedelic feel, akin to Led Zeppelin yet with a strong modern twist! a real tune and a brilliant first offering from the band ๐ค
we had a spectacular night yesterday down at the Eagle Inn for our first “BAKED” band show!

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Ramellos, “Heedless Hearts“! ๐
this is their debut offering, it’s a fantastic tune, sounding superb – they’ve had a bunch of shows up in the North East and this tune proper shows off their talent. it’s a lovely indie-rock banger, with intricate and raw lyricism, there’s an incredible flow to the track, with a luscious long extended intro, that drops into the main chorus expertly, and then only becomes bigger and bigger throughout the song, a real lovely progression within it ๐
with the drums and bass providing a gorgeous backdrop, and the guitar laying down a luscious melody, lead riffs circling the soundscape, there’s plenty of space for the vocal to take charge and ensure the listener’s attention – a fantastic debut from the band! ๐ค
