Harrison’s one of our favourite songwriters and performers and he’s a proper lovely chap – the singles we’ve heard off the album have sounded super amazing and we can’t wait to hear the full thing one of the hardest working musicians we know so well deserves a lil post!
we can’t wait for our new open mic over at the Foundry Project Manchester starting on the Sunday 8th of May!

our Just The Crust feature today is the brand new single from Jacob Reddy Music “Kings (Reloaded)”!
we did an interview with Jacob previously as part of our Knead To Know feature and his approach to music and creativity is simply inspiring – a real lovely lad with so much talent!
this new single is a rework of one of his previous releases – that came out just as the lockdowns were implemented so he’s fancied redoing it and it sounds fantastic! you can really hear the Frank Turner inspiration in this but he’s kept it to his own sound really well a massive tune about growing up and keeping to your roots – so well written!
the chorus in this is huge – we can really hear this one being belted out from the crowd at his gigs, his songwriting here is on point and you can really feel the intimacy of his lyrics in it – sounds absolutely brilliant, big things on the way for this young chap!
