Joseph Knight - Keep Your Head Up
Sixteen-year-old fresh on the Notts music block telling us to keep our heads held high. Wise words, otherwise we might walk into a lamp post or in front of a bus.
Amusement Parks on Fire - After The Airstrike
We miss this band, and this previously unreleased (or is it a brand new choon?) is a reminder of how great they are. All shimmering guitars and wide open spaces. Get your bliss on.
Josh Wheatley - Livewire
Sparse and dreamy take on the Oh Wonder original with lush keyboards and minimal guitars.
Philip George - Afraid To Love
According to Wiki “Philiphobia is the abnormal, persistent and and unwarranted fear of falling in love.” Which is funny because it sounds like being scared of someone called Philip. Perhaps this is some meta disco dance track then?
Mannequin - 1708
Taken from a forthcoming split 7” with fellow Notts noise makes The Hip Priests, the band’s melodic heavy rock keeps on getting better and better much to our delight.
Eyre Llew - Caulis
Widescreen orchestral rock that makes us tingle in all the right places. Cheers lads.
Jah Digga and Danny Dorito - Wahgwan
With tropical beats supplied by the legendary Nick Stez, the two rappers hit up some city centre locations to meet some of Nottingham’s more colourful residents.
Garton - Pleez Don’t (Blow My High Remix)
The Notts wordsmith slows down the vibe with his take on the Kendrick Lamar cut.
We have a favour to ask
LeftLion is Nottingham’s meeting point for information about what’s going on in our city, from the established organisations to the grassroots. We want to keep what we do free to all to access, but increasingly we are relying on revenue from our readers to continue. Can you spare a few quid each month to support us?
