New stuff
Eardrums Music have a new video from the recently featured Spaghetti Anywhere, entitled Incredible Hulk.
Video of MJ Hibbett covering Allo, Darlin’ on the Indietracks blog. This had better be a new trend in the run up to the festival, or better yet, during it.
A new Born Ruffians song at You Ain’t No Picasso. Not a big fan of the new sound to be honest.
