Forthcoming albums...

So I've been hammering on about this band for a good while now, about a year if we're going to be precise, and finally they have an album out, are also touring the UK and received airplay on the uber-cool station 6 Music. Mount Kimbie are the band I am of course talking about. Please, if you do anything tonight (or for the rest of the week) check this band out and grab a ticket to their forthcoming tour.

Also, keep your ears engaged for the stunning sounds of Nadine Shah. We will be hearing a lot more from her - with an album out now and tour dates pending for late September get your tickets now before someone else does.

Check both tour dates out here.

New Music

New music is what keeps everything fresh and if we didn't have this wonder, things would become a little stagnent and we'd more then likely be listening to ELO, and Bananarama, forever. Indie new music stations such as 6 Music would cease to exsist and we'd all be hanging on to our long hair and horrendous style faux pas. 

Alas, here we are in 2013 listening to The Killers, Everything Everything, Lady Gaga and a whole host of modern musicians that keep pushing those boundaries, and it doesn't stop there.

Here are some new bands to keep you on your toes, enjoy.

A.S Swanski - Red Wolf

Kodaline - Love Live This

London Grammar - Strong

Kings Of Leon

I'm sure the majority of you reading this will have heard of this band taking over the, erm, the world right now. Well, that is unless you have been hiding under a rather substantial rock for around 18 months or longer. Caleb Followill and co have their sixth studio album entitled Mechanical Bull due for release at the end of September - a few spell bounding tracks that are worth your ears are; Beautiful War - reminiscent of Cold Desert on Only By The Night, raspy and eerie vocals take hold of the track with thumping drums and reverberating guitar parts adding to the emotion - Wait For Me and current single Super Soaker echo the Kings Of Leon of old, think California Waiting and Back Down South.

However, if you can't wait for a whole month until the pay check arrives, here my friends, is a live preview from Radio One's Maida Vale studio's.
