Extremely explicit content. Truly uncensored, unfiltered, straight shooting hilarious stand up and chat, from lifelong provocateur: comedian Brendon Burns. A mix of stand up and podcasting as Brendon travels around the World performing with comics of many different backgrounds, ethnicities, sexualities and gender. Asking not necessarily the questions no one else would but more the ones no one else should. Unlike other podcasts this includes sets that will never be released anywhere else, in front of many different cultures and ethnicities. Plus the thinking behind them or the local events that led to them. Burns sets out to prove there are no dumb questions - just dumb white guys too afraid to ask.

Producer, Songwriter, Video Maker.

Currently writing new tracks for my second album and gigging. Recently reached the semi finals of the UK songwriting contest 2016 with 2 tracks and have had recent record label interest as well as BBC Introducing 2017. Thanks for all your support !!!

In recent years, Julie has toured the world alongside the Happy Mondays as a Co-Vocalist. Julie honed her craft as leading songstress alongside Shaun Ryder and is now pursuing her solo career. Standing with the great soul divas, Julie has a rare gift, blending gospel, jazz and blues to work her magic. 
Weaving soul tingling vocals, with spellbinding harmonies and infectious melodies, Julie delivers a stunning live acoustic performance.

Her own work has received air play on Jazz Fm/BBC Manchester/All FM/XFM/UNITY RADIO and was voted the most promising vocalist by Giles Peterson. Julie has since recorded tracks with labels, Grand Central, Giant Step Records, and Sanctuary Records. 
She has worked with producer Sunny Levine, on the Happy Mondays album ’Uncle Dysfunctional – an album that has allowed to show off her skills as a passionate and powerful vocalist .

Julie is currently working as a Lead  Vocalist and writer with the Groove Orchestra Caulbearers. She has shared several collaborations with French Outfit Destjil and has recently released the single "Superstar" under her new formed band Julie Gordon & The Digital Orchestra. Superstar has been released through record label King Prawn Records. Julie continues to develop her unique style as a versatile Vocalist and is highly respected throughout Manchester and beyond. 

Her incredible vocal range, we would say, is liken to silk, woven through warm melodies and dark under currents that convey a majestic presence.- She is the life blood of a vibrant and innovative being that rediscovers the missing era of Black British Soul Music. 
Spacek, Liz Fields, Kindred Family Soul, Amp Fiddler and many others who respectfully Julie is inspired by; have created a vibe, a vision in music, which hand in hand offers listeners unique and mastered melodies, in which she crafts through her production. Julie has played a crucial part in Manchester’s underground music scene, and has elegantly crossed into mainstream and kept a noted respect for the underground industry. Julie’s infectious and powerful stage presence has sparked much debate for Manchester’s ‘finest’ Powerhouse. 

Home is where the heart is and my heart is broken in musical pieces spread around the world. You can hear it in my voice, in my lyrics, in the melodies and in the music... or so I hope.
