Cate Le Bon

Just got back from Cardiff's Swn music festival after playing records/drinking SA in the City Arms during a Scrabble session and caught Cate Le Bon's fantastic set on Saturday night at Y Fuwch Goch. Most excellent and I urge you to go out and but her new LP. In the meantime here's a film for 'Hollow Trees House Hounds' directed by Casey Raymond and Ewan Jones Morris, I love this!

(Thanks to Jon, Huw and Fionna for pulling off another great Swn)

Buckingham Nicks

In anticipation of the upcoming Fleetwood Mac gig (yes I have tickets!) I thought I'd post this diamond in the rough link to an incredible live recording (audio only) of Buckingham Nicks performing Races Are Run AND Rhiannon. Super early version of Rhiannon, check it...

UPDATE!!
Damn it, it's been removed. Well, let's hope the Buckingham Nicks LP gets reissued sometime soon eh?

NEW PODCAST SITE LAUNCHED...AT LAST

Yah boo to Apple and their dreaded iweb app!
I'm over that **** and now have hosting at wordpress, with all past podcast shows archived there, from 1 through to 14 (you might notice that number 10 is missing...replacement coming soon due to a technical hitch). I'm making some of the mixes/shows available to download for a while, we'll see how it rolls and I'll hopefully make some of the others available soon.

Enjoy the shows, the retarded banter, the clinking of glasses and the good music with myself, Cherrystones and occasional chairs and guests!

Upcoming shows-
Yacht Rock Special
Cosmic Yacht Rock
Hypnagogical Expedition
Soundtracks

Get your ears out.
