Friday 5th Dec - Esther O'Connor |
|
 |
’’Esther O’Connor- The countryish K.T Tunstell’’ (Doug Johnston, The Scotsman) ‘’This girl has talent!’’ (Christine Toner, Music News Scotland) ‘’Right Here' sees her keeping on the right track with a varied album that covers all the bases from pop to country to rock and folk… Sweet vocals and excellent songs’’ |
(Get Ready to Rock Magazine) “She’s sizzling because she's got one of the best voices in the Scottish acoustic scene.” (The Daily Record) “Somewhere between Suzanne Vega and Sheryl Crow, with the plangent melancholy of one, and the sassy snap of the other, you’ll find Esther O’Connor” |

Friday 12th Dec - 12th Dec - Jay Brown |
|
 |
With a wonderful, easy flowing groove and a singing voice to match it is hard to ignore Jay Brown's powerful music. Not that you would want to.
|
| Fuelled by electric lead guitar, sax and a constant driving rhythm "Sweet Sophia" opens the album with a bang and never looks back. Honest and thoughtful in what he does he combines superbly with the harmony vocals of Kerry McGregor ("Get Me High" etc.) as he digs beneath the surface to sing about a wide range of subjects. When it comes to highlights, and songs the listener can't afford to miss or needs to hear before giving judgement you have the shuffling "Cold Wind" coupled with the pithy and mournful "No One Left To Blame" that features dark, lonesome to the bone guitar to leave the listener like Brown engulfed in a moody angst-filled world. | |
