Errant Boy – ‘The Night Dilates’
Edinburgh’s Errant Boy are Song of the Day today. The 4-piece release ‘The Night Dilates’ 24th November via Permwhale Recordings and it is free to download. With tangible gloom, yet a satisfying romantic air, ‘The Night Dilates’ is revelatory.
Miss Danby & The What – ‘Humdinger’
Song of the Day comes from Newcastle today. Lo-fi, sweet, and Miss Danby’s vocal is sublime. With its vitriolic blasts, ‘Humdinger’ does everything to satisfy my stifled teenage angst. For people like myself that have drowned themselves in bands like Hole then there are obvious comparisons, the chord progressions and riffs might not be groundbreaking,…

Having supported Twin Atlantic on several dates already this year, exhilarating band Medals – put together by JP Reid (Sucioperro/Marmaduke Duke) have revealed new video, ‘I Used To Be A Dancer’.

I find myself sitting, watching and listening these artists and sometimes questioning loudly ‘can everyone hear and feel…
Skinny Dipper – Masks EP
Vicki Cole is one of many Glasgow musicians that can masterfully pen and play a song within a very short space of time and with little effort, her versatility is completely inspiring. She is the nucleus of new ‘almost all female’ band Skinny Dipper. The 8 girl 1 guy group that boasts members from Aerial’s…
United Fruit – ‘Open Your Eyes’
This will probably come as no surprise to many that this is Song of the Day today. United Fruit’s official first single ‘Open Your Eyes’ from forthcoming album Nightmare Recovery is quite simply massive.

Some of you may recognise the names behind today’s Song of the Day. Henry is frontman of epic band De Rosa and Fleetwood is one half of harp duo The Duplets, but also plays in Glasgow’s own State Broadcasters. ‘Forestry’ is taken from upcoming debut EP, On the Forest Floor and the pair are aiming…
