it was an honour to be asked to put this on for them, they absolutely smashed it with such energy and passion – really inspiring music from them all. big love to Radiant Heart and RN Taylor on the supports too, a room absolutely bursting with talent!
well worth checking them all out, amazing tunes in their discography – keep your eyes out for more gigs on the way! www.breadrecords.co.uk/events
our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the fantastic new single from The Seminals “All On You“! 🥖
following on from the release of their debut single “Peasants With Money“, they’ve come out with a no-nonsense track here that really puts them on the map as ones to watch for the future. 🤘 we love their indie-rock sound that takes from so many influences and genres, both of the singles so far have been boss!
exploding into the track with a huge guitar riff, it sounds huge from the get-go; and we love the massive energy of the track, so upbeat. the main vocal sounds amazing too, with that scouse touch in there to really show their roots! ⚡️ the chorus almost gives a massive contrast with the verse, having such a different feel to it and then suddenly pulling out a rude guitar solo before dropping back into the next verse. 😎
the energy of the tune only continues throughout, and the outro guitar solo has so much to it, really giving it a fresh breath of air – we can’t even imagine how mental this tune would sound live. might have to get them on for a gig at some point! 👊 keep your eyes out for these guys, two formidable tracks already and we can only imagine even more on the way!
big love to all the bands for performing, Hit Like A Girl were absolutely sensational – WYRES and Snake Parade smashed it too, fantastic supports and what a class one. hugely honoured to have been asked to have put this on, we love giving bands and artists the opportunities to grace the stage and especially when they come all the way from overseas!
it’s well worth checking out all these, they’re such talented artists and performers. we’ve got more stuff in the works – you can find all of our updates on our website at www.breadrecords.co.uk

just a lil post today to remind you all about all of the features and reviews over on our website – it’s not all just gigs (even though looking through our calendar it looks like it!)
we’ve got so many lovely regular features, we’re planning to update a few of them over the new few weeks and make them even cooler. there’s over TWO YEARS of posts on our website now, today marks our 784th day of posting in a row.. madness but so much so have a gander at.
you can find it all over on our website at www.breadrecords.co.uk – there’s a whole bunch of stuff to sink your teeth into. so many incredible releases from up North, we love writing about them all!
we’ve known Nat for a long time now, and he’s got such a fantastic discography to his name – so many great singles that sound absolutely fantastic. a proper talent here in Manchester and one to definitely watch out for, especially for his live sets!
opening with a real groove to the track, the drums and bass in perfect sync with one another – it starts with Nat on an almost deadpan vocal, suddenly opening up to a more melodic vocal line and building and building with each instrument until the chorus which is just explosive.
his lyricism has only got better and better with each track, this song takes a real inspection upon the state of the world and the influence that different figures have and how they all seem to contradict each other, yet don’t… we love seeing the stories behind songs and their meanings and there’s so much to unpack in this one, we’ll let you figure it all out for yourself though
