  • The Cribs - "We became lawyers and won our rights back"

    The Cribs - "We became lawyers and won our rights back"
    Nov 25 2025
    No-one expected The Cribs to become lawyers. Not because they're working class brothers from Wakefield, or they smashed themselves through a glass vase at the NME Awards in 2006 (24–7 Rock Star Shit) . But because they write absolute belters and shouldn't need to think about fighting for the right to be a-party to the rights of their own catalogue. They did anyway, though. Selling A Vibe is out 9 January.

  • Cameron Winter (Geese) - Dog Walking in New York

    Cameron Winter (Geese) - Dog Walking in New York
    Nov 23 2025
    In case you missed it before Geese became the most talked about band in the world, we heard from frontperson and songwriter Cameron Winter this time last year. It was just around the time of his excellent debut album Heavy Metal, which a few weeks later he played songs from in a church in East London to a couple of hundred very quiet and respectful revellers. I doubt that kind of intimate setting will be possible for Geese again. Here is Cameron just before it all took off.

    Lily Lyons - "I followed my strange instinct and was correct"
    Nov 13 2025
    Lily's debut album Re-Open the World feels like a best friend the morning after a big night. Close, knowing and comforting, it's an incredible record from someone who a few years ago decided they wanted to start writing songs. Lily tells us about cafe mishaps, family encouragement and the impact of The Vital Spark by Lisa Marchiano.
