Info -

 The Inevitable who are based in London, England.
 
Previously known under a different name, due to copyright issues it was always ‘inevitable’ they would have to change it.  Since then though, The Inevitable have been creating quite a stir on the London music scene and beyond.
Building on the residency they had at Ackham Village Market on the infamous Portobello Road, the band have gone on to release their debut EP after many unfortunate hurdles, with a launch party recently held at The Star Inn in Guildford. 
Described as combining a variety of genres such as Pop, Punk, Rock and Funk, you can find out more information on The Inevitable by visiting their website www.facebook.com/the.inevitable.uk
 

Andrea Cosentino who is based in London, England.
 
Learning his trade playing in a number of tribute bands including the Beatles, U2 and The Police, which saw him invited to perform at a selection of music festivals, Andrea Cosentino also begun writing his own material.
After moving to London and attending open mic nights where he could perfect his own music, Andrea Cosentino set to work on recording his music, the outcome of which is his new track Now Is Here.
Further details on this and forthcoming gig dates can be found by following him on Facebook 

Got A Girl - 'Did We Live Too Fast' IMPACT: Monday 18th August 2014,
Video (Noisey video premiere): http://noisey.vice.com/blog/dan-the-automator-and-mary-elizabeth-winstead-got-a-girl-did-we-live-too-fast-premiere
Dan the Automator is a man of worldly tastes when it comes to the art of the collaboration. While mostly known for his hip hop production with Gorillaz and Deltron 3030, the dude has previously joined forces, in one form or another, with Zack de la Rocha, At the Drive-In's Cedric Bixler-Zavala, and Glassjaw's Daryl Palumbo — and that's only taking into account late-'90s post-hardcore heroes.
With his newest collaboration, Dan takes a decidedly cinematic turn. Having hit it off with Mary Elizabeth Winstead on the set of the 2010 film Scott Pilgrim vs. the World — he was working on the score and she was starring as love interest Ramona Flowers — Dan the Automator invited Winstead to form the other half of a project that would become Got a Girl.
On "Did We Live Too Fast," the opening cut from Got a Girl's forthcoming debut album, the pair delves deep into their shared affinity for '60s French pop. Dan the Automator reminds us of his classical training with nostalgia-pop production fit for a Tarantino film, but riddles it with Gorillaz-esque drums; Winstead, meanwhile, is perfectly cast as the soulful voice bemoaning a fantasy in the lounge spotlight as the synths blare.


The Landed - Things to Talk About - July 28th 2014.
The Landed are Paul, David, Paul and Dan, four committed musicians from Coastal Essex familiar to each other through different bands and incarnations of what The Landed are today.
Combining strong home grown rhythm and blues influences with some fresh acoustic melodies and vocals that swing from gravely to positively blue sky, these guys have left behind a trail of wowed audience in their 2 year career.
With plays form BBC Radio, including 6 Music, collaborations with top international producers and some rave review in 2013, The Landed are having an even better 2014, playing a 25 date university tour with Coffee House Sessions and festival slots such as Canadian Music Week, Toronto and Ipswich Music Day in July.
'Inventive songs and great musicianship' Stephen Foster - BBC Radio Suffolk.
Lead vocalist Paul has a voice that’s full of character, sensitive and rich - and it is empowered by the organic, subtle harmonies in the extremely-catchy chorus.

19th July - Colchester Carnival


Andrew Vanstone has been making great music for longer than he cares to remember, managing to combine and weave between the rough and energetic, the more technical and melodic, and the deeply soulful and honest. Whichever of those song-writing moods he's in, he also always manages to add a healthy dose of catchiness, leaving you humming along for the rest of the day.
 a five-track EP, where he finds room to swing between the upbeat energy of rocker-with-an-acoustic-guitar artists like Charlie Simpson, to the smooth, heartfelt melodies reminiscent of At-His-Peak-Morrissey.

Out now on Super Sick Records 



emerging South- East London based, 5 piece Metal-core outfit 'A Higher Demise' www.facebook.com/AHigherDemiseBand and https://twitter.com/AHigherDemiseUK
 
The track is taken from the guys forthcoming EP 'The Doctor Will See You Now'. The band have been tucked away recording this with producer Jason Wilson (You Me At Six/Ghost Of A Thousand). Big riffs, screams, harmonies, melodies - its all there.
 
Ive high hopes for these young guys - going to be doing a lot of shows with our Sheffield boys 'Inherit The Stars' later this year

IDYLL release their UK debut single Paradisal.
 
Featuring ethereal and evocative vocals, Paradisal rises into a sonic cocophony that would make a perfect headphone mix. The video is available at : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQCJzyxq760&sns=em



Tom The Lion - 'Silent Partner' is released on Monday 28th July 2014.
Sleep gets more intense and irresistible with every listen. This superbly assured body of songs marks the rise and rise of an outstanding new British voice. Tom the Lion is a young Londoner who writes, plays and produces every note of his material – a uniquely rich and varies tapestry of sonics and songs
All of which is a quite a long way from Leamington Spa, where Tom was born and made his initial musical explorations. The first of those were at the piano, on which he took some rather unwilling lessons, and he played some trumpet, under the gaze of his father, who plays jazz saxophone in various bands and works in sound design.
Education arrived on record both from esoteric figureheads, but also from masters of the melodic. "I had quite a strong Jazz influence from my Dad when I was growing up, we'd listen to lots of Miles Davis and Chet Baker. But always alongside more classic songwriters. My mum was a big fan of Rickie Lee Jones and Bob Dylan, and we'd listen to things like Peter Gabriel and Suzanne Vega with my Dad, very melodic songwriters with high production values. So inevitably, those things are reference points somewhere.”
Much closer to home, inspiration turned out to be just across the street. “We lived opposite a notoriously amazing drummer. My dad knew about him, but they didn’t really know each other. My parents were always saying I should be a drummer, because they felt some sort of rhythm in me, and eventually dad organised a drum lesson with this guy, when I was about 13. I was literally hooked from that point on, I was completely mad about drumming.”
That signaled Tom’s introduction to the road, playing drums in bands from the age of 15 and looking up to stellar session men like Steve Gadd. “That was when I realised that perhaps it wasn’t about being one of those top session guys,” recalls Tom. “It was about trying to make music.”
So he did. “I got a laptop, and I used to take samples off records and old movies off the TV,” he remembers. “I was obsessed with people like DJ Shadow and Four Tet, so I was really into electronic music. I wasn’t singing at that point. I was also drumming and using that kind of knowledge, but it was always just a fun hobby.”
“I was about 16 when I started thinking about writing in a more conventional way with instruments, and that’s when I went back to piano. It was pure exploration, like I was a producer and I knew what I wanted.”
When he left home and moved to London, Tom worked in bars to stay afloat, all the while expanding his sonic exploration. Feedback from friends was always positive, driving him forward, and further huge encouragement arrived in that insightful enthusiasm from Rough Trade, leading to the two EP releases. “Rough Trade championing me to the degree they did has been a massive help,” he says. “You need validation, and that’s what that did.”
A subtly confident, cutting-edge sound was being born, and so was the recording persona of Tom The Lion.
Tastemaking Radio 1 DJ Rob Da Bank heard the EPs at Rough Trade and invited Tom The Lion to record a session. “I’d never done anything live before, other than lots of drumming, and I hadn’t thought that much about it, because it was a bedroom project. So then it was, ‘How do I go about trying to make this live?’ because obviously it’s very different to quietly whispering into a microphone, whilst the neighbours are out. That’s when I first started singing properly.”
The album “Sleep” reflects Tom’s allegiance to the plaintive acoustics of Jeff Buckley and Sufjan Stevens, but sounds triumphantly unlike anything or anyone else out there. With songwriting like this, and live performances now part of his DNA, the possibilities are boundless.

Mercutio - Back to Nowhere - released on July 28th.
Mercutio are a four piece Rock band based in London, drawing on influences from bands such as Radiohead, Muse and Porcupine Tree.
The guys had written, recorded and toured together in different bands for several years before forming Mercutio in Nov 2013.
Mercutio are:
Mirko (vocals & guitar) 
Staf (lead guitar)
Naz (bass)
Alex (drums).
They are now signed to Independent label, Mazepa Records, run by co-composer and co-producer Gianluca Cucchiara, and backed by film producer Giovanna Romagnoli (Academy Award winner for Nuovo Cinema Paradiso).
The title track from their debut album ‘Back to Nowhere’ has been mixed by Alan Moulder (Arctic Monkeys, Foo Fighters and The Killers)
The album was recorded at Assault and Battery Studios, London with multi award winning producer Andy Wright (Jeff Beck, Simple Minds).
Mercutio earned their spurs the old way, gigging on the underground alternative music scene and playing rock venues throughout the UK and across Europe.
On the track "Back to Nowhere" frontman Mirko says "This track talks about every person towards the end of their life.  How they begin to reflect on how they have lived their life. The things they’ve done but most importantly what they haven’t done. Because of fear? Egoism?  Anger?  They see how all these decisions and actions have impacted their life. So the message is to live life to the fullest now and in every moment and don’t let fear, anger and all these emotions control your life as you’ll only be left on your own with just material achievements to comfort you in the end".
