The Setlist & The Script

Since seeing Northern Comfort back in early 2017 and being blown away by their live show, we’ve been waiting for the Leeds band to release their first bits of recorded music. At last, this weekend, they release debut single “Take Me There” for the world to hear and we couldn’t…

March is about the time in the calendar when gigs come thick and fast, bands get out on the road and there isn’t a better month to find your next favourite band. We’ll be attending a huge amount of shows this month in Leeds and the surrounding areas and here…

As a live band, nobody impressed us more last year than Corella who we saw several times bring their catchy indie-pop songs to Yorkshire and various UK festivals. The band from Manchester have an incredible knack for writing a killer chorus and an infectious riff whilst staying credible and current. Brand new…

Every time Dead Natives feature on Halfway 2 Nowhere, we seem to have something different to write about them. This might initially seem like they’re a band still trying to find their feet and haven’t established a true “sound”, which may be true, but I feel it’s because this band are ever…

In just a few weeks, Albert Hammond Jr. releases his fourth solo record Francis Trouble and on Monday evening, he played a rousing support set on Scottish rockers Franz Ferdinand’s Leeds show.

Post-punk foursome Spring King visited the York Crescent venue this week on their nationwide run of dates. With the weather below freezing outside it would have been justifiable to see a small crowd turn out, especially given York’s infamously bad music scene but that certainly wasn’t the case. A bumper crowd braved…

Leeds-based power pop band The Harriets are back with their third release, Harriet Who?, along with a headline gig at Belgrave Music Hall on the 3rd March 2018 and a further series of live dates around the North of England. The band are back following a successful 2017 which included sets…

Runaway Hounds are an unsigned, emerging Indie-Rock act from Wolverhampton who’s new track ‘Sophie’ is a slick, finely tuned anthem of the genre, and a must listen for fans of the likes of Catfish And The Bottlemen, Peace, and Swim Deep. The band consists of Owen Stav (Guitar and Lead…

This May, BEANS ON TOAST will embark on a tour of UK venues.  This tour, however, will be somewhat different. The aptly titled ‘SITTING ON A CHAIR TOUR’ will see the enthusiastic songwriter playing seated theatres and venues rather than pubs and clubs. He’s promising a unique evening of stories…
