    We supported them in Nottingham earlier this year - they were lovely! We chatted to them for ages...

    I'd initially written them off as a cheap titillation band, but despite being very skimpy in dress, they're decent musicians - and have a horrendous gig schedule!

     

    Yes they gig a lot !!, though last year their USA shows fell through because of Visa problems, they paid someone to sort out the paperwork and the company messed it all up, then they toured Europe in October & November and had a lot of problems with their van. I'm looking forward to seeing them live this year as I've not seen them at a show yet, their albums are terrific and they have amazing voices, thanks for the reply :)

  2. My favourite musical highlight of 2024 was discovering the band 'The SoapGirls' who have independently released 4 albums so far with a new album due in 2025, they do fantastic and fun live streams on YouTube. The band is two sisters Camille (bass & lead vocals) & Noemie DeBray (guitar and lead vocals) who were born in France but live in South Africa, they write terrific Alternative Pop/Rock music with great melodies, lyrics and riffs, below is their latest video release of the song 'She Don't Wanna' from their fourth album 'In My Skin', terrific band :D

    New band is at the 'record some stuff to show venues and get gigs' stage. So we did. Go pro in the corner, silent-ish rehearsal with everything into the desk. Run a few takes of each track and pick the best one.

     

    The drummer has just finished giving it a bit of a polish and syncing the audio & video up. I think he's done a pretty good job:

     

     

     

     

    This was wonderful, superb playing and what a beautiful voice your singer has, excellent, good luck with the band :)

  4. Went for a walk to Greenwich in London today with my son Joe and on the way back visited Greenwich Market and was surprised to see that a guitar shop had opened a few weeks ago. Popped in and they had a few basses including an OLP Stingray and a nice two humbucker Spector in a rather fetching blue sparkle, lots of fantastic electric guitars and acoustic guitars as well. Tom gave us a warm welcome and I hope he has success with it, he's got a website coming but can be found on Instagram 'tomsguitarshop'. It's worth a visit for anyone who lives locally :) 

     

    There's a YouTube video featuring his shop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTIoNnmnANE
