The Dinwiddy Project! What do I know about this band in advance of reviewing their most recent output? Not much myself, BUT I do know that they are a group based in Tonypandy, they released their new album on 13th March 2021 AND create an exclusive barrage of compelling audible… Read more

What are you gonna do after you’ve spent half a lifetime writing and producing your 17 song, one hour and 14 minutes grandiose debut album; a record tackling everything from loss, love, hope, anger, everything in-between and more? Well, it’s obvious isn’t it? You get back on it. You start… Read more

I’ve never been much of a Jazz or Soul aficionado, but I gave a bit of my time to check out “Topiary”, the new release from Freshly Cut Grass and I do not regret my experience in the slightest. In fact, it was quite refreshing to put my focus on… Read more
