our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Hayden J Barlow “LCD” out this Friday 10th December!

we’ve known Hayden for a good while now and we’re still in awe at his sublime guitarwork, passionate and lovely vocals and lush songwriting ability. definitely one to catch live, such a fantastic talent.

we loved his latest singles “LONELINESS” and “DUPLICITY”, such top production on them creating such a unique sound for his music, and really blending so many genres to make super boss tunes. well worth checking out his previous releases!! https://open.spotify.com/artist/54QKgqIuwIximWz6A6ZQG2

the new single “LCD” carries on from his previous releases, with distortion and synths throughout, weaved together with heavy drum samples, basslines and gorgeous vocals that we’ve come to hear consistently from Hayden. we can’t wait to hear this once it’s out – go and give it a pre-save ahead of Friday’s release at https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/haydenjbarlow/lcd

Just The Crust 22/11/21: The Be Positives – Everything About ☀️

22nd Nov 202122nd Nov 2021artist, bread, just the crust, local scene, new music, videoLeave a Comment

our feature for this week’s Just The Crust is the brand new album from The Be Positives “Everything About”!

blending 70’s folk nostalgia with modern indie-rock influences, The Be Positives have created a lovely feel-good record that sounds absolutely boss. with a full listing of 11 tracks, it’s a brilliant introduction for listeners to the band – well worth listening to.

we’re loving the guitar riffs throughout, and plenty of gorgeous harmonies for you to feast your ears upon – topped with lovely songwriting that really creates great imagery and allows the listener to really connect with each of the songs!

our quick recommendations are “I Just Want To See Her”, a fast-paced almost punky number; “Dead & Gone” a calming, melodic tune that builds and builds, great use of feedback and instrumentation.. class stuff, but we recommend listening to it all in full for fans of Neil Young, The Charlatans, and Laura Marling!

head on over to Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/album/6GWiCbav2kgATiWvmrwwd4 to check the album in full – it’s well worth a listen. absolutely fantastic stuff from the band!

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new tune from Granfalloon, “Working On Your Own”!

taken from the new album “Positive Songs”, this song is a lovely folky rock ballad that focuses on the crazy life of shift workers, especially throughout the pandemic – it’s a lovely tribute to those in society who are often overlooked! really great sentiment of the song.

with a mellow soundscape, relaxed instrumentation and fantastic vocals from Lomax, it really sets the scene of his music and gives you a real insight into his musical ability. sounding great with his band!
