🖤 NEW REVIEW 🖤
If you’ve not seen Mimi Barks live then… well you’re missing out.

Watching her at the Bear Cave in Bournemouth last week made me appreciate intimate stages. A place that is intimate enough where you can actually see the artist, feel the lyrics, and take in the performance without being lost in a sea of people and blinding flashing lights. This actually lets you soak in a performance. Be with the room and not let the show tell you how to feel through pyrotechnics.

📰 MUSIC NEWS 📰
THE MOLOTOVS have announced today their second album Welcome to Urbia is set for release on 9th April 2027.

Ahead of the release their first single “Urbia” is out now with limited edition CDs and Cassettes made available for pre-order.

Speaking of the recording for “Urbia” Matt stated how “When I wrote it, it just immediately felt like something different and was steering in the direction that I wanted to for this next album. I really wanted to shake it up.”

Regarding the huge chorus on the track Issy added: “it really blossoms. It’s quite moody and driving, quite industrial, and then you get to the chorus that kind of opens it up. It’s sweet.”

A few tickets remain for their upcoming Leeds and Glasgow dates.

🆕 LEEDS FESTIVAL 2026 🆕
“Rain Pours, but RAYE Shines, and Leeds Festival 2026 Bows Out in Style.”

RAYE doesn’t feel like an artist working towards being capable of headlining festivals anymore. She feels like one waiting for the festivals to catch up. And finally, after four days, countless trips between stages and considerably more walking than we’d like to calculate, that’s where our Leeds Festival 2026 comes to an end.

🆕NEW INTERVIEW 🆕
During the whirlwind of All Points East there was one duo everyone was eager to see. Nova Twins have been an upward projectory in the last few years. Together Amy & Georgia have shown they can have success on their own terms and that was showcased on their latest album. Parasites & Butterflies refused to be boxed in and instead was packed with various genres, tackling identity, chaos, and empowerment.

During the festival grabbed a quick chat with the girls. 💻

🆕 READING AND LEEDS FESTIVAL 🆕
“Fontaines D.C. Finally take the deserved Headline Spot as Leeds Festival Turns Up the Guitars for Saturday.”

Finally our Saturday ends back outside at The Grid for Fontaines D.C.

This one feels important and personal. I’ve watched Fontaines over several years, tours and albums, getting better and more experimental with every release, and now seeing them as a headliner at Leeds Festival is a special ‘coming of age’ party.

Grian Chatten, Carlos O’Connell, Conor Curley, Conor Deegan III and Tom Coll have made that transition without ever really reshaping Fontaines D.C. into what anyone might expect a festival-headlining band to sound or act like. If anything, they’ve become stranger as they’ve become bigger.
