Ben Simmons - Olivia Review by Kieran Campbell

I had the chance to review one of Ben Simmon’s songs from his EP ‘Light & Shade’. The song is a very catchy number and has many different styles of music into one, with a constant acoustic riff leading the charge of the song and then Ben seems to throw in a few blues guitar riffs mixed in modern pop, it is a must listen, you will be dancing on the tables in the night. Ben has featured on BBC radio a few times and hopefully will carry on his rain of good vibes.

Kev Hackney - Running Back To You Review by Kieran Campbell

“Running back to you originally written for bluesman Jez Davis. Written after a concert the drink flowed and I forgot that I’d written it till Jez recorded it and thanked me. Singing here with Vwede Nova (Anthonia)” This song is a great one, telling stories like a lot of Kev’s tunes, with the back up of Anthonia, they make a fantastic partnership in music and one you must check out and just listen to as they will blow your mind. Kev has written so many songs and they all have a meaning behind them, my personal favourate is ‘What a Bitch’ but thats for another time.
