BIO:
Since the official unleashing into the worldwide music scene, SUNSIDE has enjoyed flattering highs and received exciting accolades. The 2012 release of their debut LP, Forever Whenever, threw it all into motion.
Within just weeks, favorites like Driving In Cars and B-Side Girl were spinning on international airwaves and the world was getting their first taste of the 2-piece’s “high energy” and “riveting, hands-in-the-air” sound.
Great support was also coming from home in the U.S., as Sunside attracted indie label interest out of Los Angeles. Alexis Records recently included 2 Sunside tracks on their "Various Artists" compilation release, which includes bands like Missing Andy and Whitemoor.
Meanwhile, The Dallas Morning News invited the band to perform for their in-studio taping and printed in their nationally renowned publication that "Sunside's star is on the rise".
So what’s next? The band recently wrapped up their second full-length album with Producer, Bryan David in Dallas, TX. The new album, "The Stars are Watching Us" is now available on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify and many more online music stores. The Dallas Morning News calls it "A blast of a record!"
Catchy as hell. We hope you enjoy!

GRACE SOLERO’s music has a certain raw energy that few artists can convincingly convey.  Singer and guitarist Grace herself possesses a visceral voice of astounding range, and a presence and poise as a performer that points to past dance and gymnastics training. In the group she lends her name to, her star quality is matched by that of California-born, London-based lead guitarist Dan Beaulaurier, whose style displays a rare mix of technical mastery and real soul.  Since first meeting while working on a production of Oscar Wilde’s ‘Salome’ at London’s Theatro Technis, the pair have been producing beguiling, otherworldly sounds that utterly befit such far-from-humble beginnings.

Their debut album ‘New Moon’ is a glorious sonic collision of musical influences. It includes the single ‘Apartheid’, playlisted by Bruce Dickinson on BBC Radio 6. Emerging like a dark pop-rock cloud with its gritty lyricism, soaring riffs and pain ridden vocals, New Moon has been critically acclaimed and championed by magazines including Classic Rock, Guitar Techniques and The Fly.

 Grace Solero’s core creative duo are joined by drummer Maurizio Liberato and multi-talented bassist Bjorn Zetterlund, who recorded and engineered the record at the band’s self-built North London studio.   By turns both grand and understated, the second album knows when to apply full-force, bracing blasts of gritty noise, and equally how to hold listeners rapt with the subtleties of a single, sustained note or well-placed seconds silence.  At their most sonically abrasive Grace Solero channel the emotional intensity of grunge icons such as Soundgarden and Smashing Pumpkins, at their most audacious and extravagant they bring to mind Muse's stadium bombast, and, on a sublime, stripped-down cover of ‘Yard of Blonde Girls’, Grace delivers a performance which makes plain why frequent Jeff Buckley comparisons have been fully deserved.

Critics have also likened Grace's vocals to Alanis Morissette, PJ Harvey and Skunk Anansie frontwoman Skin.  For 'Hundred Years Apart' she recorded the majority of her vocal parts live with the band, and the results achieved this way testify both the strength of the talents at work within the group, and the cohesive chemistry between them.  Needless to say, the band possess a captivating stage presence, which has been honed through extensive touring, everywhere from intimate clubs to large stages at outdoor festivals in both Europe and the USA.    It’s a true one-of-a-kind artist who can say she’s performed alongside The Vibrators’ Knox (who in turn said Grace possesses “a world class voice”), Slade’s Noddy Holder (with whom she co-starred in a musical production of Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’ at London’s Union Chapel) and Tristania’s Mariangela Demurtas - who appears on new single 'Electro' and describes Grace as “one of the most talented people I know”.

Secret Lie who are based in Portugal.
 
After making their first public appearance in concert in May 2012, Secret Lie have not looked back since.
The release of their album Behind The Truth has resulted in mass exposure with their single I Can Be Free reaching number one on various charts, received national radio play, and has also been included on a prime time TV soap on Portugal’s most viewed TV channel.  In addition to this, their video for the track Beautiful Wild Rose was the most viewed Portuguese musical video on Myspace and Sapo which has contributed to them being invited to perform at a number of top events and festivals in their homeland.

Ollie Banks
 has just released her mighty new empowerment anthem, ‘Back To You’.
The single, came out on February 24 and is an infectiously catchy blast of pop, conjured by one of the UK’s most ambitious new additions to the music scene.
‘Back To You’ is a fast-paced, high-energy pop track - on a theme which garners massive audiences, undying love.
It is a well-executed potential chart-topper which which leaves the listener wanting to press play again, and again.
The 22-year-old Londoner, Ollie has made it abundantly clear she is going for the big time - having penned music with Simon Ellis, a Brit Award winning songwriter and musical director who's worked alongside the likes of Kylie Minogue and Britney Spears.
She found herself writing music at the age of eighteen and decided to enter the Open Mic UK - where she made it to the finals and met her musical partner, Jamie Sellers.
Sellers has helped Ollie create her current sound - one she says represents her flamboyant personality, being loud and fun at the same time, while also capturing her sensitive side.
And the singer-songwriter has also just finished a hugely successful School Tour and took to some of the most famous stages in the country - all of which are demanding her return.
There is much more to come from Ollie Banks - and 2014 is her year.

Artist - Junior Turner
Single Title - Save Me
Release Date - 28th March 2014
Availability - iTunes, Amazon & Spotify


Bashy 'Bring The Lights Down'
Released: 4th May.
Independent music artist, actor and entrepreneur Ashley ‘Bashy’ Thomas, one of the
UK’s most seminal urban talents is set to release his new single, ‘Bring The Lights
Down’ on 5th May 2014, the second cut from his much anticipated forthcoming EP.
Following from his last single (These are the songs) which independently charted at
Number 57, was Record Of The Week on BBC 1xtra (Charlie sloth) and was the
Number 1 MTV Base Video Of The Week, this single aims to build upwards from the
momentum gained as a consequence of this and his leading role in the latest series
of TOPBOY. We are sure we will see continued support from Radio 1 (Sara Cox),
1Xtra (Charlie Sloth, Mistajam, Trevor Nelson) and Kiss.
Not only is Bashy renowned for setting the bar for clever and authentic musical
artistry, but he is also widely respected for his business acumen as an independently
funded and released artist, impacting on the UK underground scene through big
ideas rather than access to big budgets. Since the release of his epic debut single
‘Black Boys’ (produced by Naughty Boy) in 2007, Bashy’s story has only gone from
strength to strength and firmly established himself as a certified talent in both the
music and acting.


Chloe who is based in New York, USA. 
 
After people begun noticing her singing talent while she was just a toddler, followed by her picking up the guitar at the age of 8 and learning to play songs by some of her idols such as Taylor Swift, Chloe has not looked back since.
Now writing her own material which she has performed at a number of talent shows and open mic gigs in coffee shops, the attention she was receiving resulted in one of her songs being used on the ABC, Family TV show The Vineyard last year.  
Now at the age of 14, she has released her new single and video for Upside Down which is now available to purchase on iTunes.
Details of this along with further information on Chloe can be found on her website www.facebook.com/chloecollinsmusic or you can follow her on Twitter at www.twitter.com/chloecollinsmus
 


 Pawns Or Kings who are based in St Louis, USA. 
 
Previously promoted by Deuce in January 2012, Pawns Or Kings now return with their new album titled Pomme de Terre.
Taking their name from The Count Of Monte Cristo where Napoleon Bonaparte says ‘We are all Pawns or Kings. Emperors and fools’, Pawns Or Kings are now beginning to create a huge stir on the St Louis music scene and beyond.
Having formed after discovering the Folk revival going on in the Americana and London Folk scenes, the three piece have since been played on a large number of radio stations in the US and around the world which has resulted in gig offers in Nashville Tennessee and even as far away as Peru through their own self promotion.   In addition to this, the band are currently in the process of arranging a UK tour for the summer.
Quoted as being resplendent, with expertly played banjo, and absolutely beautiful vocals, you can find out further details on Pawns Or Kings by visiting their website www.facebook.com/pawnsorkings

Ego Honey 

Midlands indie-pop rockers Ego Honey are preparing to release of their brand new single, ‘Seventeen’.
With a furious driving, urgent and enlivened medley of guitars, piano and drums - the track has created a fresh, new sound from the young rockers.
The tightly-wrapped and unmistakable vocal of the lead singer, Matt, is a robust new entry to the world of indie pop.
Parading a well-executed stage presence, the young gents are reminiscence of some of Britain’s most notorious rock stars.
Ego Honey, which comprises of Matt, Ben, Dan, Jon and Ruddy are based in Birmingham since they formed in April 2013.
