A friend of mine recently got in touch to say that his band was releasing a new album. I’d never heard the Dear Friends’ music before, but I said I’d take a listen. There’s always a bit of pressure to like music when you know the people involved, but luckily for me, it really wasn’t hard to […]
I remember waking that morning, glancing at my phone, and it was the first thing I saw; David Bowie has died. I had a jolt to the stomach. I really couldn’t believe it. When someone is so famous and talented, and has created such an enormous body of eclectic work, they somehow become superhuman. We don’t […]

To celebrate some amazing music sessions that took place throughout the year, Sean Murricane recorded a Foxes and Convicts Christmas Special for Leeds Indie Radio. It will air this Thursday, and here’s the trailer to give you a tingly taste of what’s to come: (Marvellous camera work don’t you think?!) Emilia and I went down […]
I flipping love Kate Bush, so the news that her new album was out was incredibly exciting to me. Earlier this year she released Director’s Cut (a reworking of some tracks from two of her previous albums), which I confess I’ve yet to listen to. 50 Words for Snow, being an entirely new creation, seemed […]
Mr M’s fantastic band, March of Dimes, has a new single out and it’s a corker! Sleeping Giant makes me nostalgic for something but I can’t quite put my finger on what it is. (Although having a 3 week old little lass, perhaps it’s just sleep?!) I love the sound of the track, which has […]
March of Dimes played the Brudenell at last!! HURRAH. They are my favourite Leeds band, but then Mr M is the bass player, so I am perhaps a tiny bit on the biased side. If you don’t live in Leeds, or haven’t heard of the Brudenell, it’s a fantastic gig venue in Leeds. It’s set […]
Every Thursday at 7pm Leeds Indie Radio is host to Foxes and Convicts. This show is based on acoustic sets from a special recording session that took place at Hope House Records in February. Exciting and extremely talented bands from around Leeds took part, including March of Dimes, Tag Team Preacher (whose voices sounded incredible […]
Kate Bush is creating again! This is great news for fans such as myself. I was, however, a little disappointed to learn that her next album, Director’s Cut, will be a reworking of tracks taken from her two earlier albums; The Sensual World (1989) and The Red Shoes (1993). Deeper Understanding is the first single […]
