Info-

Kane Harrison who is from Victoria, Australia.

After realising at a young age his calling, Kane Harrison has since worked single-mindedly to fulfil his potential as an artist in music with a particular focus on guitars, drums and voice.
The hard work is now paying off and after being a finalist in 2007 in Australian Idol, the following year saw him become a grand finalist in Australia’s largest Country music competition, Telstra Road To Tamworth. This exposure then helped contribute to his debut single reaching number 6 in Australia’s CMC charts and continuing to chart for a further 17 weeks.
Currently sharing his time between Nashville and Los Angeles, Kane Harrison has had his music described as capturing imagination and emoting the deepest of feelings.

With a band comprising of members that have worked with the likes of Ian Hunter, Paul McCartney and Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band, the interest gained in DownTown Mystic has already resulted in a large number of top US radio stations playing the band’s material.
Their new single No Exceptions is taken from their second album titled Lost & Found which is already receiving rave reviews and quoted as being a brilliantly conceived piece of musical art and one of the best albums of the year.

Drop Down Smiling - 'Why We Should Change'
Taken from the "Sign Here - EP" which is OUT NOW and available from iTunes and all other good digital retailers.
Drop Down Smiling are a four piece rock/electro band hailing from Nuneaton in the Midlands.
A strong mix of raunchy guitar riffs, electronic sampling and 4 part harmonies give this band a unique sound, the band pride themselves on the fact that people struggle to compare them to other artists.
The band are beginning to attract some very positive attention. Their debut release in 2012, a two track EP titled “Down From Your Skies” produced by Jason Wilcock, (noted for his work with We Are The Ocean and You Me At Six) was well received by the industry and music lovers alike, not least because the band launched it as a free EP which was not only available in digital format but the band also printed thousands of hard copy CD versions to hand out at shows.
After a year of gigging around the country the CDs were all but depleted. Appetite for the recorded music was growing fast.
March 14th 2013 saw the release of their second EP "Sign Here" a 4 track DIY release. The lead track from the EP "Why Should We Change" is accompanied by a music video which has been critically acclaimed due to the concept and strong environmental message portrayed in the video. The video has already earned the band a prestigious award "Ultimate Musician award" from beat100.com.

March 2013 also marked the first time Drop Down Smiling played on foreign soil, after being invited to play at the sold out "Wizzfest" in Belgium. They are now back in the UK for a series of high profile shows including main support for "We Are The Ocean" in April and a support slot with "Rat Attack" in May. The band are also heading south later in the year with shows as part of the Camden Rocks festival supporting acts such as "The Rifles, Therapy?, Fearless Vampire Killers and many more"
The band are:
Chris West - Lead vocals and guitar.
Michael Brown - Lead guitar and vocals
Martin Dale - Bass and Vocals
James Porter - Drums and vocals.
