Just The Crust 17/05/21: Tay Temple – What I Need ☀️

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the absolutely lovely new single from Tay Temple, “What I Need”! 🤘

coming off the back of her previous release “Train”, Tay is back with another absolutely fantastic tune. She’s been working relentlessly over the past few months to get her music out there and we absolutely love this new song! 😊

this tune is an anthem of self-worth, with such a positive message – a daring outcry that things will get better, and even with the lows, there’s bound to be highs to contrast. backed by her band, they add such life to the track, with lead guitar riffs that drive the track on and on, and a rhythm section that pushes the track forward with such intensity that compliments the message of the song so well. amazing stuff, definitely one to keep your eye on for the future!! ❤️

head on over to Tay’s Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/artist/1uNRHTeriBvMbdp2XgdEZ3 to check the song out, and it’s available on all streaming sites as well! ✊

“Obliterate/Ugly” is over a year old?! 😎

how on earth has it been over a year since we released this EP “Obliterate/Ugly” with Adam Carpenter Music!? 😱

we recorded this with Adam prior to the pandemic, then produced it all up in our studio, worked on it tirelessly during the initial lockdown (the “three-week one”!) and then released it last year on the 8th of May. it’s been a serious journey since then, but it’s absolutely amazing to see that people are still listening to this. that’s all we want for our artists, to help them create something unique and personal to them and then for people to engage with it and share in the experiences of the songs 🥰

we truly believe that some of Adam’s finest-written songs are on this EP, with punky elements, singer-songwriter elements, it’s a real expression of Adam and it’s a beautiful sight to see when a piece of music does that. 🤟 highly recommend checking out “2:24” and “Obliterate Me” – such personal and relatable ideas in those songs, with a lovely lovely amount of distortion 🎸

head over to Bandcamp at www.adamcarpenter.bandcamp.com to find the EP in full. 👊 as always, it’s available on all streaming sites! drop us a comment and let us know what you think of it! 🍞

Fresh Batch: Matt Finn! 🍞

our next Fresh Batch livestream is on the Sunday 23rd of May with Matt Finn! 🤟

Matt’s played our virtual open mic every week for almost a year now and we can’t wait to catch him playing a full set for us! 😊 blending a singer-songwriter sound with 90s alternative influences, he’s able to bring plenty of covers and lovely originals to the table!

find his releases over at https://therealmattfinn.bandcamp.com/ – some lovely tunes on his EPs and well worth checking out! 🥳

make sure you keep this one free, gonna be a super lovely one 🥰 Sunday 23rd May at 8pm, over on Facebook! 🍞
