General Fiasco // Live Review, Leeds Cockpit

We last caught up with the General Fiasco boys not so long ago back in February [you can check out the interview at the bottom of the review]. Since then they’ve completed a UK tour, released their E.P “Don’t You Ever” and are back out on the road yet again. We headed down to Leeds Cockpit to check out the hard working Irish rockers.

Polinski // Live Review, St. Philip's Church, Manchester

We were lucky enough to be invited to attend a very special event organised by Future Everything in association with Hairbrain. Paul Wolinski aka “Polinski” is returning to his home town for his debut audio visual show. We were expecting futuristic rhythms, euphoric tones and soaring instrumentals as Polinski takes electronica to the next level in the glorious surroundings of St Philip’s Church. And we weren’t disappointed…

Lawson // Live Review, Leeds Cockpit

Well, don’t say we didn’t warn you! We tipped Lawson as a band to watch [HERE] and they have been taking 2012 by storm ever since. Their much anticipated debut single “When She Was Mine” is released on 27^th May and the boys have just commenced a sell out UK tour. We headed down to catch up with the quartet as they played Leeds Cockpit.

Meet “Talk To Angels”, an alternative rock quartet who only formed in 2007, but wasted no time in taking their talents across the pond, playing a 6 week U.S tour the following year. Having already wowed new music giants CMJ, the band has played a host of festivals such as Leeds, Wireless and SXSW.

We caught up with Lars on the first night of the tour at The Parish in Huddersfield.
