'Medication Time', the highly-awaited album from longtime British Blues/Americana stalwart Todd Sharpville, was released on Friday via DixieFrog Records, and that very same evening, Chris Griffiths was on hand at Todd's Camden Club Launch Party in London's Chalk Farm, to capture some photos, complemented also by today's Video Of The Day of Todd's addictive second single, the mid-tempo Blues of 'Walk Out In The Rain'. Spanning twelve Blues-fuelled tracks (consisting of nine originals and three covers), the new album examines and expresses many of the emotions that led to Todd's breakdown, the hospital stay, and the slow climb back to figurative normality, which features two duets: one with Rhode Island’s own Sugar Ray Norcia, and the other with Detroit artist and close friend for over 30 years, Larry McCray.

Rising Canadian Rock ‘n’ Roll quintet, Elephants and Stars, release their upcoming 6-track EP, 'Last Chance Power Drive', on Friday 16th July, and their thundering lead single and today's Video Of The Day, 'On The Table', holds so much of what Rock ‘n’ Roll lovers crave, a four chord guitar loop and a riff that is as infectious as it is commanding. There’s also a real turn on the nostalgia in this one, taking note of the legendary Foo Fighters, with songwriter, vocalist and guitarist, Manfred Sittmann’s high vocals and harmonies, alongside the band's tight knit performance. Having taken their homeland by storm, by bringing the ever resurgent Rock scene back to its heyday, there is no doubt that this band do indeed have something extra to offer in their modern and refined sound.
