a stellar evening on Saturday celebrating the release of “New Year’s Drunk in a Cocktail Bar” with Narwhals at The Lloyds / Kamara Ballroom! 
an incredible performance from Narwhals and support acts Scatterchild and Mike Ward were sensational as ever. 
thanks to Dusty Pop Entertainment for the show!
the album is available on all streaming platforms, and on Bandcamp at https://narwhalsuk.bandcamp.com/album/new-years-drunk-in-a-cocktail-bar 
our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new debut single “Day In The Sun” from Bloom.! 💥
the first offering from the Manchester indie-rock outfit, and they’ve got off to a strong start, having performed a bunch over the past few months including a headline show, and their single proving their talent 👊
the track sounds mega, with a strong mix of powerful and grounding rhythm, a luscious lead guitar tone and acoustic guitar working in tandem to create a full sonic sound – and leaving plenty of space for Jack’s vocal to take command and deliver his story in expert fashion, with no-nonsense, direct lyricism that paints a real picture of emotion. 🌙
you can find the track on all streaming platforms, including on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/track/2vVWlI7oVjY6DcTocZwam4 – we can’t wait to hear even more from these guys 🎧

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Secrets” from Lily Haylett! 🌙
the Manchester-based grunge-influenced songwriter released her debut single “Miss Safrano” last year, and has been performing across the North West a bunch throughout the remainder of 2025, and is back with a brand new single 🎶
this new single has a real echo of 90’s alternative to it, with a lofi-esque drumbeat backing the soft, delicate guitar progression, creating a luscious atmosphere for her vocal to soar above the instrumentation, conveying her story with effortless and powerful delivery; with a lovely chorus, raw and personal lyricism, it’s a real intimate track that sounds fantastic 🎵
you can find the track on all streaming plafroms including on Spotify over at https://open.spotify.com/album/2jcXmndJa9tScWnOj9ZMgO – well worth checking out! 🎧
all of our features, reviews, music and more can be found on our website at www.breadrecords.co.uk 🍞
