The Thermals - My Heart Went Cold

“Kicks”-Debut Album from Irish Musician "The Vinylheads"-Out Sep 1st 2015

"Kicks" is the debut pop/rock music project of Irishman Col Patterson. 

Col is influenced by Paul Weller, The Kinks, The Killers, The Doors, The Stranglers, among others.

Reviews:

Frank Hughes of GoldenPlec.com said of Kicks: 

 "Over the course of ten songs, The Vinylheads take elements of Brit pop circa The Boo Radleys mixed with the Americana tinged rock sensibilities of The Hold Steady. The melding of both styles from opposite sides of the Atlantic is largely successful. 

 At times, it’s perky and bouncing like a kid on a sugar rush on If I Should and Dream Speed Away before changing gears to more anthemic, atmospheric tunes like To Kill A Giant." 

 Colm O'Hare of Hotpress Said: 

 "Strong Debut By Irish Outfit-"Kicks" -Patterson's commanding voice comes across as a blend of Paul Weller and Psychedelic Furs' Richard Butler...the energy of Punk and classic Rock, all imbued with a distinctly Irish Flavour...it all adds up to an impressive debut by any measure" 


 In December 2014, the title single, “Kicks” was chosen by BBC 6music for airplay by Lauren Laverne, Steve Lamacq and was Legend Tom Robinson’s Recommends “Pick of the Week”. 

Danny Gandolfi from Musicnews.com described another single "Pear" as… 
.."a catchy pop song, with great jangly melodic guitar and neat, clever chord changes (reminding me of ‘The Undertones’), slowly building up, veering towards a rousing chorus and uplifting close." 

 Col hopes to play tracks from the album live and release his second album in 2016. 

“Kicks”, Recorded by Martin Quinn of JAM Studios Ireland, is out Sep 1st 2015 on all digital platforms.

Bio:

In 2012, supported by his Monaghan and Roscommon cousins, a wedding jam session turned into regular practice sessions and eventually, some original tracks. Recorded at JAM Studios in Co. Meath by Producer Martin Quinn, “Kicks”(The Album) is the result.

In December 2014, the title single, “Kicks” was chosen by BBC 6music for airplay by Lauren Laverne, Steve Lamacq and was Legend Tom Robinson’s Recommends “Pick of the Week”.

Danny Gandolfi from Musicnews.com described another single "Pear" as…
.."a catchy pop song, with great jangly melodic guitar and neat, clever chord changes (reminding me of ‘The Undertones’), slowly building up, veering towards a rousing chorus and uplifting close."

The Vinylheads supported Midge Ure at the Fortstock festival in Co Monaghan June 2014. Col hopes to play tracks from the album live and release his second album in 2016.

“Kicks”, the debut Album is out Sep 1st 2015 on all digital platforms. 
Lead Track is “To Kill A Giant”, deals with Col’s personal experience of a “One Punch/Coward” Attack, the aftermath of which caused him many years of mental distress.

Hearsays - Talking Across The Room

 In a car, In a crowd - You're a secret, finally spoke out loud 
 I wanna tell you now 
 In a sense, all the pieces of us and our lives are aligned in an  ancient line, moving right thru time 
 What a find 
 Without words in the wake of a serious state when the groove is worn 
 and the water's warm 

 You put your warpaint on ... 

 Streets are wet and reflect the lights from cars and the rows of bars 
 and nobody knows the story of your bones 
 Salt and sea, city lights ... all the unsung thoughts of your unsung life 
 There might be nothing left when we arrive, so .... 

 Put your warpaint on

Drums - Alex Fitch 
 Bass - John Dwyer

Our Girl - Sleeper

Cold War Love

http://robertnashmusic.com/index.php/music-2/

From the album 'The Ghost of Your Old Love' - released January 22, 2016


Fairground

We are thrilled to announce the debut single and first solo release to come from South London’s Lou E, aka 18 year old Louis Milburn. ‘What Do You Do It For?’ / ‘Next Time’ was recorded and mixed in Milburn’s bedroom and a friend’s garden shed in the Autumn of 2015, amidst Louis’ hectic touring schedule playing guitar and keys for Oscar across the globe. The single will be released on 7” vinyl and digitally on 26th February 2016. 

Despite his youth, Milburn is currently sitting on around three albums worth of unreleased material and this prolificity has an almost cult-like feel to it. Pairing the song writing styles and lyricism of the likes of Elliot Smith and Lou Reed with intricate contemporary guitar work similar to Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Lou E’s work is intensely personal whilst retaining a refined and sincere feeling. In his own words, “Lou E is the chance for me to discuss issues, problems and worries that I’m far too British to talk about with everybody and nobody at the same time”.

This concern for a progressive dialogue is found in lead track ‘What Do You Do It For?’, which deals with faux-spirituality and it’s rise as a trend, the snide line of “go find yourself some more” a shot at those who return from foreign cultures with only a set of clichéd appropriations and a pair of harem pants to show for their travels. Turning on his own anxieties for the single’s B-side, ‘Next Time’, Milburn mourns a relationship that ended badly due to a lack of communication and honesty as he sings ‘Say next time for sure / When your heart is out the door’ as drums crash behind him. 

‘What Do You Do It For?’ / ‘Next Time’ is released 26th February on 7” vinyl and digitally via Beech Coma. The single is the second instalment of the label’s bi-monthly subscription series, part-funded by Arts Council England, with the first cut coming late last year from Bruising.

The 2nd single from Halcyon Drive's forthcoming EP "Untethered".

(C) 2016 Halycon Drive under exclusive license to Verge/Sony Music Entertainment Australia Pty Ltd

Produced, recorded and mixed by Steven Schram
Mastered at Studios 301 by Steve Smart

Lyrics:

Hiding at the back in the blues, they didn't notice that you weren't faultless. But you were perfect enough. Sitting at the back on the pews I was stolen, yea I've been hopeless since I first saw you fall. And our lives mean we're never at home, there's no time to be together.

Hanging at the back from the roof, you were joking, but I didn't notice. Yea I'm so out of touch. Sticking to the bottom of your shoe, I've been hoping that you didn't notice- oh what terrible touch.

And our lives mean we're never at home, there's no time to be together. And these nights last forever alone, but it's nice to be untethered. 

Waiting all my life. I’m waiting round for nothing. I've been wasting all my time.

Untethered

The Fades - I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing

Forming in August of 2014, Semantics are a product of the combined styles, emotions and influences of its four members Bridie Green (Guitar), Rob Lilley (Vocals and Guitar), Simon Lees (Drums) and Josh RB (Bass), who write as a collaborative of four individuals.

Their debut EP was released on the 1st of July 2016 and was recorded and mixed over the course of 2015 with Ryan Pinson, with the artwork being contributed by Boston based artist Ash Rose. It has received extensive airplay on BBC Introducing as well as radio stations internationally. Upon its release it was described as being an ”opaque, but inviting, listen, creating swathes of mystery” (Counteract) and one that ”will shake those who seek 'a different sound’ to their core” (Quays News). 

After a successful bout of headline shows and support slots with bands such as The Vryll Society, Holy Esque and Field studies, Semantics are releasing their second EP titled 'Acid Test' in September 2017. 

”For those who still associate Birmingham with the bright colours of B-Town, Semantics will offer plenty of food for thought – be careful, though, their jagged rhythms might leave quite a lump in the throat”. Louder Than War

''Besides the tunefulness and impeccable execution (production and sound are topnotch as well), the four bring a presence to bear that can’t help but suggest a powerful future'' Stereo Embers Magazine.
