When I heard wind that Lotte Mullan was getting set to release her first album, to say I was excited would be an understatement. Mulling around the acoustic scene in London for the past 5 years, I’ve had the pleasure of listening to Lotte live a number of times, witnessing the progressive sounds that have [...]

The best bands you’ve not yet heard
The Maccabees 3rd album ‘Given to the Wild’ people might know what you’re on about when you say you want to go to the swimming pool at Latchmere.
Heavily involved in the world of fashion, Angelo is heading Londonbound for Fashion Week and is looking to cause a stir. His forthcoming single is hotly anticipated by a dedicated following and is due for release on the 13th February.
I then had a chat/dance with her post-gig and was utterly enthralled with her charm which is every bit as warm has her vocals are.
From the start the catchy beat has you tapping your foot sub-consciously along.
For people of our age, or indeed any age, a bit of musical nostalgia is healthy for us. This week, the 90s band Cast announced the release of a new single, ‘Time Bomb’ and album, Troubled Times, on Monday 5th March. The band was responsible for such memorable anthems, such as ‘Walkaway’, which still has [...]
Jess Morgan’s first album, ‘All Swell’, is as chilled out as a Sunday morning driving along the seafront. Moving on to new things, Jess has released details of a Pledge Music campaign which aims to raise money for her up and coming second album, ‘Aye Me’. Following on from ‘All Swell’, it is set to [...]
American Indie pop-ers Still Flyin’ have come up with a neat little package to accompany their forthcoming album ‘On A Bedroom Wall’. Firstly, you can get a sneak peek into the band’s sophomore album, due for release 21st May, by clicking here to listen and download the track ‘Cleat Talking’. But that’s not it! The [...]
When I was 17 the sort of sounds that were being produced from my adolescent vocal chords would have made a deaf man beg for silence. Suffice to say I had discovered Oasis and the joys of being a ‘singer’ in an Indie-Rock band (come on, it was 2007, EVERYONE was in an Indie-Rock band). [...]
Ladies, Gents, Dogs and Aliens. Please make sure you watch the Rendezvous video here, it’s Freakin awesome! (As are the bunch of free downloads we’ve got for ya!)
Gone are the days of 90’s Britpop, but somehow, West Country boys, ‘Towns’ are bringing a hefty essence of the genre back. There’s been a gaping space in the music field for a while now, missing that throwback. Sure we’ve had the revival of the Gallagher siblings in their new ventures, but ‘Towns’ are unmarked [...]
There is a U2-esque sound to this single with Bono like vocals and a gradual build up to the slight crescendo of a finale. It begins with simple piano chords and then introduces the vocals, and gradually builds up in a layer of instruments. Although the piano and the vocals are melodic, the song doesn’t [...]
Soulmates Never Die is a some fresh talent from West Yorkshire. Generally I despise the use of ukelele in indie music. It comes across as pretentious and, frankly, lazy. Better Skin, Better Clothes, however, has a charming self-consciousness which is aided by lo-fi production and layers of vocals, guitars and ukelele. ‘My weapon is courage, my armour is honesty’. Great line.
Long time readers of Never Enough Notes might be wondering how we pick our reviews. In my case, I do it entirely arbitrarily. I picked this because the label’s name references one of John Steinbeck’s more lyrical novels. Choosing in this way means that the first listen is always an adventure, but one with rather [...]
It is often easy to loose track, quite literally, when listening to a record fuelled with drifting echoes and sweeping vocals but Porcelain Raft’s latest record manages to capture the elements of both its compiled genres, being electronic and pop, and fuse it together nicely without straying too far into either. If ever you’ve listened [...]

This album, made up of B-sides, covers and previously unreleased songs, is the second compilation from Frank (the first-as the quick ones will have guessed-was titled “the first three years”), and although these types of B-Side albums are often something you expect from bands far bigger than the punk-folk singer from Winchester, the devout fans [...]
Sitting here with my headphones on, loosing myself in a world of good music, it makes Monday’s all that bit better!
She Says: ‘I’m going take to the sky on this crazy cloud of mine.”
Altitude Festival offers an alternative experience to that of Snowbombing – comedy and snowboarding? Yes please!
