WRC award-winning Pete Feenstra has spent the last forty years listening to, writing about, talking about, and promoting Rock music, with a particular interest in the Blues, and Pete's latest Rock & Blues show is today's Podcast Of The Day, featuring T Bone Walker, Mick Pini, Jeff Beck, Joe Satriani, Matt Pearce And The Mutiny, Dan Patlansky (pictured), Wille & The Bandits, The Wild Roots, The Love Light Orchestra, Otis Taylor, The Nighthawks, Quicksand, Hawkwind, plus many more.

"As mentioned, the vocal arrangements are to die for, especially on the Bluesy 'Come Down'. The solo on this track is another scorcher, with each note counting, but it is a pleasant change to listen to a track like this where it is the individual vocal sections that make you want to come back for more. This is an outstanding debut and will undoubtedly be one of the standout albums of the year." Ahead of both their forthcoming appearance this Saturday 7th May at Lincoln Blues Rhythm & Rock Festival at The Drill, and the release the day before of their debut album, 'Life's Machine', today Simon Green gives you his complete take on Brave Rival's new album, plus check out our Video Of The Day of the quintet's second single, 'Heart Attack'.

Having spent the start of his career playing in bands and collaborating with other artists, supporting the likes of Indie Rock icons such as The Killers and Placebo, British singer-songwriter Maddox Jones uses his past experience to evolve his musical change of direction with his new Alt-Pop 12-track debut album, 'Believe It', released last month on Radikal Records, of which his stripped back special live version of one of the singles, 'Somewhere There’s a Plan (Believe It)', recorded at Plastic Tree Studios, with long time collaborator, Dave Crawford, is today's Video Of The Day. Bursting with vibrant colour, the album not only blends summery synth-washed Pop with raw, stripped back, honest tracks, showcasing his singer-songwriter abilities, but at the same time is also uplifting and hopeful, where Jones delves into themes of becoming himself, falling in love as well as overcoming and battling with addiction.
