CD: “All Funned Up” by The Super Happy Fun Club

The Super Happy Fun Club

After hearing The Super Happy Fun Club’s debut effort “Go Fun Yourself”, I immediately predicted sensational forthcomings for the quirkily named Chicago rock outfit. Their distinct, whiskey fuelled take on rock n roll has helped this band take the UK press by storm and earned them a tour support slot for Madina Lake.

CD: “Second Coming” by The Dropper’s Neck

on June 29th, 2013 at 19:30

the Dropper's Neck

Melting my speakers is the debut album by The Dropper’s Neck with their dark raw punk rock sound that falls somewhere between punk, rock, and a dollop of horror darkness for atmosphere.

Joiners, Southampton

Western Sand

A short trip down the M27 brings us to the Joiners in Southampton, a venue that has been voted best small venue in the country by the NME which is well deserved and high praise for such a fantastic music venue with a great friendly atmosphere. Bournemouth Rock band Western Sand have chosen this as the place to launch their latest self titled four track EP, along with two great support acts to kick off the evening in style.

Heaven's Basement

17th July, Sound Circus, Bournemouth
It’s been a very busy year so far, for rock stalwarts Heaven’s Basement! Having had a successful tour of the USA in May, last weekend they went down a storm at the Download festival and are now embarking on a more intimate European tour to get closer to the fans. As one of Britain’s best live rock acts at the moment, I recommend you get tickets for the 17th of July when they will be tearing the roof off the Sound Circus in Bournemouth.

The Bipolar Express by Michael Jurado

on June 27th, 2013 at 21:08
Posted In: CD, Reviews
Michael Jurado

The Bipolar Express is a 6-minute experimental music production that reflects upon the emotional extremities of a bipolar sufferer. Using the journey of a steam train as its metaphor, the soundscape takes the listener on a shrill and eerie ride that ploughs through episodes of torment, tranquillity, mania and anxiety. “The unchartered territory of its compositional style is very reflective of the condition itself.”

Walk The Night

Tonight at the Centre Stage in Bournemouth is the start of a new regular monthly event put together by local musician Darren Hodson. Darren performs himself in several bands BB3, The Southern Companion, The Velvet Hearts, The 24/7’s as well as solo acoustic shows. With this much experience along with a host of musician friends this event hopefully will be something the local music scene can very much look forward to each month.
