For the purposes of this article, we’re going to focus on the movie. It’s not for artistic reasons, I genuinely prefer the book, but I can... Continue Reading →
It's 2007. I’m in a soaking wet field in Staffordshire at V Festival. My friend Detta had got a tip about a band that we had to see called 606. None of us, her included, had heard of 606. We didn’t know what they did, who they were, or what we were letting ourselves in... Continue Reading →
Rating - 4/5 Jon Anderson has one of the more distinctive voices in music. His work with Yes is legend, and if you haven’t heard “Owner of a Lonely Heart” then I’m going to suggest you’re lying, you didn’t realize it was Yes you were listening to, or you’ve been living in a cave for...

As previously discussed here Heavy Metal was born in this decade. The 13th of February saw the release... Continue Reading →
The story is as familiar as any that have got their start in the world of music. Making that pilgrimage to the big city from back home, from small town America, running away from those that don’t understand or don’t approve, trying to break through and make a living playing music. It’s not the same... Continue Reading →

Rating - 3/5 Hailing from Sweden but resident in Berlin, The Ghost of Helags are singer-songwriter and producer duo Teresa Woischiski and John Alexander Ericson. Musically they are the perfect blend of home and adopted home. Their new single Chemistry has got the softer soothing Scandinavian side and the darker, harder Germanic undertones. Have you...

It’s the follow up to his 2017 release Sun Mantra and the intervening three years have taken him to the Albert Hall, Glastonbury and then a cruise ship? Time on the waves has... Continue Reading →
