Now, she has embarked on her own big UK tour, landing in Liverpool on Friday 21st November and we were there to capture it! Photo Credit: Paul Lang It was immediately evident how

On October 29 th , alright (okay) released their long-anticipated EP ‘ Decent (Fine) ’ ( read our review here ). Then, on November 15 th  we gathered to hear this enticing EP played live at Liverpool’s trendy venue Future Yard. Boasting five support acts, the gig was thrust into life by Grungy, eruptive three-piece colourwash , followed by the Metal-infused Face It Tegan and the haunting intensity of Broadsheet Speak , peaking   with the Punky, radiant energy of Broken Down G

In the grand Philharmonic Hall , where classical instruments usually whisper, true Rock ‘n Roll erupted with full force. Yee Loi, a fiercely talented, punk family trio, hit the stage with explosive energy and a gritty yet polished sound that felt refreshingly raw for the refined setting. Rebellious and punky, they joked, “I didn’t think they let people like us into places like these.” But it was clear; the moment they bursted upon the stage, they deserved and worked hard fo

Nep kicks down the door and announces herself to the Alt Pop scene with her debut album ‘Noelle’ , a raw yet optimistic coming of age project that explores the highs and lows of her Daytona upbringing. Characterised by acoustic guitar and personal songwriting, tracks like ‘I Will always Love You Alright’, draw on Bedroom Pop influences like Cavetown and mxmtoon . The album’s centrepiece, appropriately titled ‘Daytona’ , epitomises the albums Indie-Rock edge, combining raw

Bite, the debut EP from Liverpool based Sisters , is weird. It is for the people who use old sweet wrappers as bookmarks, and bunch handwritten notes at the bottom of their bag, and lose their black lipstick amongst those notes.  These people need a soundtrack, and that is exactly what Bite is. It is frantic in places, with ‘ I can’t see’ cantering towards spiralling thoughts and late nights, and ‘ Sweetness of things’ tumbling into a flurry of panicked drums.  It is gothic i

In the legendary depths of Liverpool’s Cavern Club , a raw and invigorating sound bounced off the brick walls... rising Indie quartet Courds . We felt as if we were witnessing the start of something much larger than this basement they played as the Liverpool outfit delivered an electric performance.   They launched into their set with ‘Fault Lines’ and ‘Cherry’ instantly drawing in the audience with low and melancholic verses that suddenly erupt into bursts of gritty power.

Resonant. Tender. Understated. The natural kinship between Euan Blackman and the Kazimier Stockroom is impossible to miss – their handcrafted harmony made for something quietly magical on the night of October 23rd.  The Stockroom’s exposed brick and limited capacity allows for a rare, standing-only intimacy, making it a haven for the city’s creative undercurrent. Constantly reinventing itself, the Kaz dedicates itself to amplifying new talent and celebrating authenticity ov

Jeen marks her return to the music industry with her eighth major solo project ‘For The Romance’ , a short, but powerful thirteen minute EP that refuses to neatly be placed into one genre. Transcending rock, pop, punk and indie, the record is a whirlwind of sound and emotion, demonstrating the Canadian songwriters' impressive ability to be versatile, but deeply personal at the same time.  The lead single, ‘Look What You Did’  is instantly reminiscent of an 80’s synth pop tra

Following the recent release of their debut single ‘Coffee Cups’ , the five-piece George and the Jungle headed to the Kazimier Stockroom for a night of funk-infused fun. Based in Liverpool, this band combines groovy basslines with punctuated saxophone solos in their infectious live performances.  Photo Credit: @florintein The night kicked off with the 8-piece band P.S.M  merging sonic layers of violin, tuba, flute, and breathy enchanting vocals, reminiscent of the chaos of B
