Halfway 2 NowhereWhen Adam (H2N editor) asked me if I might like to write a piece about five acts to watch for 2021, my heart sagged a touch. How to choose? 2020 has been such a magnificent year for new music, despite the wipe out car crash going on in the rest of our lives. I always […]
This year, we’re going around the regions of the UK, bringing you our ones to watch for 2021. First up, our north-east writer Jay Landman has picked his five artists being tipped to have breakout years from up north. Abnorm Grunge/Pop-Punk group, Abnorm, released their debut single ‘Citrus’ in September 2020, announcing their arrival onto […]
Clear Vinyl formed in 2019 and have since battled the biggest rollercoaster ride of all; last time H2N covered the Sheffield artist was, we loved “Into The Night” their March 2020 release and they’re ending this year in style with the release of “Tonight”.

Last weekend, it was Scarborough for The Feens and Tom Lumley and this week it was another This Feeling championed artist, Red Rum Club as they showcased sophomore record The Hollow […]
Live music. We all miss it. We all love it. And this weekend I had the pleasure of finally getting to a small, not so sweaty, gig, in the humble seaside town of Scarborough. All I can say is, it was bloody brilliant. The Feens were the hosts and headliners for the night at Vibe […]
Being primarily a blog and radio show dedicated to discovering and highlighting the best in indie-rock music, it’s rare we have a straight up rock song to cover. When something special comes along though, it really taps into my musical heritage, what I was brought up on, Green Day, Shinedown, anything with guitars, drums and […]
