there’s only two days to go til we’re over at The Fitzgerald for the first of our Storyteller Show Series, a co-headline event with our very own michael webster and the amazing Harrison Rimmer!
it’s going to be a superb night, a real chilled-out atmosphere with Harrison & Michael playing their more relaxed tracks, a calmer and mellower kind of show which is always lovely to have. with support from the amazing Anyone’s Ghost and Dr Fabola – we can’t wait for this one.
come on down from 7pm this Thursday 29th June to catch all the action – it’s free entry, quality drinks on offer and it’s sure to be a lovely night of live music. find out more at our event Storyteller Show Series #1 @ The Fitzgerald
our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Exit Love” from HWY!
we were massive fans of their first two singles, which really set them as ones to watch on the North West scene – we’ve also had them perform for us at our Toasted gigs and for Halloweezer and their live sets are extraordinary, with an incredible stage presence and a real ability to move a crowd
this new single sees them expand on their grungey sound, with gorgeous guitar melodies throughout which create a lovely soundscape and atmosphere for the track – the calm groove is a beautiful backdrop for the vocals to soar over, and Ryan’s vocal sounds spectacular here; maintaining control over the track and as it opens up to the chorus, his power and rage is only complimented by the instrumentation, a ferocious outburst of energy that we’ve come to see with all of HWY’s releases. the dynamic of this track is lush, there’s so much energy and restraint all at once – the breakdown is a serene breath of fresh air from the chaos and power of the rest of the track, and the guitar riffs are second to none. yet another incredible release from these guys!
come on down next Saturday 1st July from 1pm – 5pm to catch all the action – free entry, quality pints on tap, veggie/vegan food served all afternoon! find out more at our event Cream of the Crop: 1st July!
an incredible show, everyone smashed their sets and it was brilliant to host this one – big love to Turtle Park and King Liar for supporting, class to see!
we can’t wait for this Saturday where we’ll be down at the Grafton Arms celebrating 174 years of Joseph Holt with our Graftonbury all-dayer!
it’s bound to be a belter, there’s feature sets from the incredible talents of Jimmy Page XI Kyletoolanmusic and Laura Farrow – plus, open mic slots going from 4pm, and we’ve got a whole bunch of incredible local talent already signed up for it!
the final single “Molotov” from the upcoming Anyone’s Ghost debut album will be out on the 7th of July
we’re super proud of how this one came out, it’s a gorgeous track and features piano work from the amazing Scatterchild and produced by our very own michael webster! one of our favourites from the album too, been played a bunch live as well.
our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the new EP “I Love The Sound” from Manchester-based indie-pop outfit VALA
we’ve covered VALA a bunch in the past, and we love their dreamy, lofi-inspired indie tunes – their latest single back in December 2022 “Don’t Think Twice (It’s Not Alright)” was lovely!
they’ve returned with a full length release here, and it only proves their quality with an array of lovely tunes in addition to their previous singles, showing off their talent and ability to write luscious soundscapes, with careful and personal lyricism, whilst still maintaining the energy of the indie genre. these new tunes are laden with gorgeous synths and bring a more psychedelic element to their music, quality stuff!
you can find their new EP in full on streaming sites, or you can find the full video for the new tune “It’s Magic” over on YouTube at https://youtu.be/VDtj7IKRPx0 – well worth checking out!
