Florence and the Machine

An amazing cover version of a Cold War Kids song. I am late on the band wagon for this young talent...

Nickelback recycle same song twice!

This has been around on the web for a while, but I just remebered it when I woke up to a Canadian radio staion playing a Nickleback tune... that woke me up soon enough!

Emmy the great

With her hotly anticipated debut album ‘First Love’ recently released, this could be her moment to shine at last. Emmy spoke with the audience between songs as if they knew all the in-band jokes!

The atmosphere was appropriately mellow, the crowd sat on the floor. This was not a set to have a dance to, rather, to appreciate a beautiful voice, and perfectly placed accompaniments with unusual instruments. Definitely some superb song-writing talent in Emmy, traditional folk style blended with her own pop twist. For me a highlight was an eloquent cover of the Carpenters 70’s hit ‘The end of the world’.
