THE SOUTH RISES AGAIN

Last night we saw the 3rd and final Dead Confederate show in London at The Barfly. It was a very intense performance from this great band from Athens, Georgia who have been tour the UK over the last week. We saw them last year in Austin and have been fans since. John Sinclair, legendary MC5 architect was in attendance. This band has an intense and original sound that we heartily recommend you investigate and they are super nice guys to boot.

KEVIN AYERS - NEW SINGLE - 6 APRIL

After the LP version was mixed Kevin worked on a new version of Walk on Water with Duke Erikson of Garbage - a passionate fan of British psychedelia. Erikson’s pop sensibility and Ayers secret passion for Spector-esque production fuse perfectly on this uplifting take on the inevitable downs of pop stardom. This poptastic single will be available as a download 7" 45rpm vinyl.  A week later we arre proud to be releasing the vinyl pressing of The Unfairground with plastic junkies Music On Vinyl. This is a 180gm vinyl pressing from the original master tapes and the sound is exceptional! It will be housed in a heavy card gatefild cover. An awesome item.

A TASTE OF THE NEW WRENS LP

Well at long last here is the first glimpse of the forthcoming Wrens album. This is a demo of a track called "In Turkish Waters" that the band would later record at Abbey Road studios. The power and passion of the performance is a great indicator of the riches to follow. Well, download and enjoy the file HERE

THE GO-BETWEENS COMMEMORATED ON THE STREETS OF THEIR TOWN

The Go-Betweens will be the first of ten Australian bands commemorated in Brisbane's new Rock 'n' Roll Walk of Fame as voted by the public in a recent poll. The Go-Betweens will be joined by the likes of the Bee Gees and The Saints. The Walk of Fame, situated in Brisbane's Brunswick Street Mall, will show a cross-section of the city's popular musical heritage. The photo here shows Deputy Mayor David Hinchliffe next to the first plaque, and his favourite band - The Go-Betweens, of course. We only wish Grant was alive to stub a fag butt out on it...
