Since their move, Anglia have been showcased by a well known music distribution company, and in 2006 had their debut album released through them, resulting in many music stores around the country selling their album, and radio stations local and worldwide playing their material.

Building on their previous triumphs, Feral Sun are promoting their new single 'Evacuate'.
It's the third single and title track of the debut album, which is due to hit the downloads on March 31.
Deep within the ever active and lively heavy metal genre, 'Evacuate' displays the band's raw talent to combine lyrical cunning with songwriting and production at world class standard.
Critics have been quick to praise Feral Sun's frontman, Mick Burns.
Chris Shaw of Bauer Radio said: "What a vocal, gritty and full of angst yet totally melodic."
With Mick, who also plays guitar, there Marco lo Coco (lead guitar), Alex Nikitin (bass) and Jay Stephenson (drums).
The highly anticipated album, which is also named 'Evacuate' is also available for purchase on March 31 (and in pre order now.)
The London-based band are also boast chart success in South Africa after releasing an exclusive track. 'Into Pieces' climbed to the top 10 of the 'Most Wanted' chart on Tuks FM and remained there for five weeks, peaking at number two for a fortnight.
And they're now looking to repeat and grow on the worldwide airplay given to their previous two singles 'Long Road' and 'Breathe' last year.
With "amazing" responses to their live sets, Feral Sun are now being booked up for 2014.
Dan Gillespie, reporter for The South African Newspaper, said: "It's rare that you come across a group of musicians so committed to their craft, content to grind it out and are fully intent on fulfilling their rock star glory, no matter how long it takes.
A Seatwave spokesman said: "Feral Sun are gritty and tight, with a great stage presence and the ability to be up there with the best."
Upcoming shows will be in Barfly in Camden, London on May 3, and The Brunswick in Gloucester on May 22.

Alex Lato who is based in London, England. 
 
Known by many as the lead singer of The Fuse who have supported the likes of UB40 and Foreigner, Alex Lato now releases his debut solo album, Infamous, and the second single from it; Reeva, Forever.
With the previous single Hurt You having been on rotation on 32 major radio stations in Northern Belgium, along with a large number of other stations around the world, the exposure he has received resulted in Alex Lato invited to perform live on Liege’s number one radio station.
The single and album may not have even been recorded following airport mix-ups when checking out a studio in Morocco and leaving money at cashpoints, not to mention freakily bumping into previous record label owners ….  Following these incidents and a number more during the recordings, Alex was quoted as saying; every step of the way has felt like a leap into the unknown. You just have to keep leaping, because when you are in the air, the dark isn't so scary, and sometimes you see the light…
The album is now available to purchase on iTunes and all other major download stores.  Further details on this as well as forthcoming gig dates can be found on his website www.alexlato.co.uk or you can follow him on Facebook at www.facebook.com/alexlato   


WARME who are based in Bradford, England. 
 
Having originally formed in 2003 when they were signed to a label which enabled them to record their first album in Madrid with guest keyboard player Ian Maclagan from Small Faces and Rolling Stones, big things were expected from WARME following festivals, tours, television appearances and rave reviews.
Unfortunately, due to differences with the label the band went on a self imposed sabbatical but have now returned with a fresh new line up and are currently in the process of arranging a UK tour.  
Described as having relentless riffs, progressive beats and sublime vocals, you can find further details on WARME on their website www.warmemusic.com or you can follow them on Facebook at www.facebook.com/warmeukofficial   
 

SIGMA “NOBODY TO LOVE”
Released 13th April (3beat)
Following the success of “Rudeboy”, top UK drum and bass duo Sigma are back with a massive new single - “Nobody to Love”. Originally created purely for their DJ set, “Nobody To Love” took on a life of its own after other DJs heard it out on the circuit. The track has won support from the likes of Annie Mac, Mistajam, Rob Da Bank, DJ Friction, Phil Taggart and Alice Levine.
Annie Mac gave the track its debut spin on her show on Radio 1 and Mistajam followed up with a play on 1Xtra. Nick Grimshaw slotted it into his Breakfast Show ‘Nixtape’. And the daytime love doesn’t stop there - Fearne Cotton has already given “Nobody To Love” three spins on her show on Radio 1.
The duo’s most recent remixes include the upcoming “My Love” for Route 94 and DJ Fresh’s “Dibby Dibby Sound” which charted at Number 2 in the UK.
Sigma are currently touring the globe – they’ve already played Dallas, London, Vancouver and Antwerp, where their performance of “Rudeboy” with singer Doctor set the Rampage DnB festival alight! They’ve got gigs coming up in NYC, San Francisco, Romania, Canada, Prague, Budapest and Milan as well as many more dates across the UK.


Singer-songwriter Joe Miles is poised to mount an assault on huge audiences with his new single, ‘Give Me Your Love’.
The slick, polished and poppy acoustic number is due out on March 24.
Joe is the 18 year old grandson of the late jazz legend Terry Lightfoot and the son of jazz singer Melinda Lightfoot.
While featuring a high-shine production of the guitar and keyboards, Miles’ stunning vocal is the resounding quality.
And he’s masterfully paired it with a hook-filled and catchy song, which he penned with Ed Sheeran’s writing partner, Amy Wadge.
Award-winning performer and writer Wadge has paired up with Miles to write an EP, ‘All Good Things’ - which is also due out in March.
Joe, from Northampton, says his influences - John Mayer, Ed Sheeran and Jamie Cullum - have been instrumental in his own writing.
And his passion and talent in performing has led him to play for packed-out audiences in Paris, supporting chart-scaling singer-songwriter Tich. Miles also joined her on a sell-out UK tour.
He’s also played on some of the nation’s most prestigious stages while supporting Amy Wadge, X Factor’s Hannah Barrett and Rough Copy.
Fuelled with ambition and fervour he is looking to forge his own career in the music industry - starting with the release of the much anticipated ‘Give Me Your Love’.
Live dates:
16th March: The Yardbird, Birmingham
25th March (e.p. launch gig) The Bedford, Balham, London
19 April: The O2 Academy 3, Birmingham.

Escape Acts, the new EP by acclaimed singer-songwriter Daniel Pearson, is set for release on April 14th. The four new studio recordings follow the stunning second album Mercury State, which earned the versatile and prolific indie-rocker a raft of international press praise last year. Lost My Way is the infectious lead single and it would sound great on the show.

Over the course of two albums Pearson has received a string of rave reviews (see sample press acclaim below), gained thousands of loyal fans through word of mouth success and over 10,000 download sales, received airplay from Radio 2, 6Music, XFM, Amazing Radio & more (see list below), heard his songs on various TV shows and toured the UK & USA.

Lost My Way reboots 60s pop with grungy riffs and a stomping kick drum and showcases a knack for crafting immediate earworms similar to Haim and Jake Bugg. Unlike many of the current crop of troubadours, Pearson’s songs are not restricted to folkish acoustics – although as the beautiful Satellite Town proves, he needs little more than a guitar and his voice to make a huge impact. This is classic songwriting that also draws parallels with the garage-blues of The Black Keys (evident on the glam-tinged Promises Promises) and the country-soul of Paolo Nutini (illustrated by I Dug Myself A Hole), tied together by a soulful voice, deft lyrical skill and great production by the talented Ed Heaton at Eiger Studios in Leeds.
