- Airrace Borderline Review 22/4/19
"Down below in the Borderline tonight the band is playing a well-crafted set from both the first and last albums. Kicking off with ‘I Don’t Care’ and ‘Eyes Like Ice’ setting the pace for the songs to come. The feel-good factor is in abundance here backed up by the continuous smile on keyboard player Linda Kelsey-Foster’s face. ’New Skin’ is track of the night for me excellently executed with vocalist Adam Payne in fine form."

- Kinch London Express Gig 22/4/19
Jesse Kinch captured the Rock and Roll soul of America when he was voted the winner of ABC's Rising Star, and he's playing London's Pizza Express Live on Wednesday 22nd May. Today's Track Of The Day is his current single 'How Do I Reach You (The Last Veil)', taken from his debut album, 'I'm Not Like Everybody Else', released last year. The 23 year old singer, songwriter, guitarist and lyricist has been playing the N.Y.C./Long Island club scene since the age of 8 and is a part of a new generation of young talent who want to bring Rock 'n’ Roll back to its glory days! Influenced heavily by the great Rock bands and guitarists of the 60’s, 70’s and the Seattle scene of the 90’s, Jesse delivers high energy performances and writes songs that capture the times with his own unique original style.
- Borderline Photo Gallery 21/4/19
Airrace touched down at London's Borderline on Friday night, with great support from Tytan (pictured and today's Track Of The Day), and with a review to come, check out today's Photo Gallery here. Their latest album ‘Untold Stories’ was released in August last year and was praised for its songwriting and wide-ranging stylistic approach. Founded by Laurie Mansworth, Airrace is recognised as one of the UK’s pioneering AOR acts. Following the acclaimed 1984 release of their debut album, ’Shaft Of Light’, the band supported rock titans such as Queen, AC/DC and Meat Loaf, but they had crash-landed by the Summer of 1985. It took a 25th anniversary reissue of the record to reunite the group, and they eventually issued a second album, ‘Back To The Start’, via Frontiers in 2011.

- Flight Brigade Half Moon Review 21/4/19
"Flight Brigade resemble not so much a Rock-group, but more of an ensemble: they have an electric-violin player as well a bass player, lead guitarist drummer and two keyboardists, but they manage not to over-egg the pudding. They certainly have pop sensibilities, and their brand of chart-friendly Blues/Heavy Rock backing, takes in all manner of influences from A-ha to Radiohead. The collective doesn't seem to have a dominant member which works to their credit as the emphasis is totally shifted to their tunes." Read the whole of Ivan De Mello's Flight Brigade + Port Erin (Video Of The Day), The Half Moon, Putney, London, gig review from last Thursday night here plus check out our Photo Gallery here.

- Flight Brigade Photo Gallery 20/4/19
With a review to come, today check out our initial Photo Gallery here of Alternative Indie-Rock band Flight Brigade's Half Moon, Putney gig from Thursday night. This was was the final gig of their tour supporting the release of their latest single ‘Fury Road’ taken from the band’s new studio album ‘Chased By Wolves’ which is due to be released on Friday 6th September via Wixen Music Publishing. Touring extensively and playing the major UK festivals including Glastonbury, Bestival and The Great Escape, Flight Brigade have garnered a reputation from fans and critics alike for exceptional and explosive live performances. Their sound is as distinctive as it is unique. Infectious melodies and hooks flow through songs that at times exude fierce energy and at others gentle poignancy. With grand orchestral sweeps, crunching anthemic guitars, strings and synths, their explosive performances feel like it’s their last day on earth!

- Airrace Borderline Tonight 19/4/19
"The ever smiling Kelsey Foster, with her red fedora and her similarly coloured feather boa draped across her keyboards, played the beautiful intro to their Survivor sounding epic 'Brief Encounter' before Payne rounded off proceedings on this final track from 'SOL' with another cracking vocal. An awesome set that not only had those present salivating at the prospect of the release of their new album next year, but also those present checking out the release of that amazing and very underrated album thirty three years ago. A must for this year's Christmas stocking!" That was our take on Airrace the last time we saw them at Camden's The Underworld in December 2017 (pictured) and the band return to London tonight at The Borderline.
- Troy At Eel Pie Tonight 18/4/19
"Saying his goodbyes it was no surprise that the audience called him back and as he returned he showed the generosity of inviting Chris Walker to join him on stage. In ‘Baby Please Don’t Go’ we had a show stopping guitar dual that raised the temperature another notch. The Troy Redfern Band won a lot of hearts on 4th July in Gravesend and they’ll win a lot more in the months ahead." That was part of our take on The Troy Redfern Band at BluesRockFest way back in 2015 (pictured and today's Video Of The Day) and Troy and his band are also playing tonight at The Eel Pie Club, The Patch, 67 London Road, Twickenham TW1 3SZ. Doors open at 8.15pm with music from 9-11pm. WRC members are reminded that they can use their cards to get discounted admission.
