Brocarde is an incomparable British songstress with a singular vision. She first tasted success as a jewellery designer when her brand of unusual, alternative accessories exploded into the mainstream. But then she became disillusioned with celebrity culture and, after destroying her famous creation, set off to Los Angeles to write and record her debut album. ‘Last Supper’, the incendiary first single from the album, set for release on Good Friday 19th April, begs the listener to question their relationship with celebrity culture, social media and loved ones and asks the all-important question “What will you consume at your last supper?" Indeed, 'Last Supper’, is the first hard hitting song she wrote when she got to Los Angeles, and is a song which won’t get out of your head once it has wormed its way in, let alone a perfect introduction to Brocarde’s inspirational, arresting, matchless musical concoction.

The unmistakable voice of Jizzy Pearl, one of the most loved Hard Rock bands of the early 1990’s, returns to London's The Underworld in Camden tonight supported by The Brink (Track Of The Day), a band who bring new life and energy to the British Hard Rock scene with their vibrant 21st Century form of balls-to-the-wall Rock 'n Roll. Jizzy of Love/Hate returned with his highly anticipated new solo album ‘All You Need Is Soul’ in May last year, which was released via Frontiers Music Srl. They first burst onto the scene in 1990 with the debut album ‘Blackout In The Red Room’ and proceeded to take the UK by storm with Best Album of the Year from Kerrang! and Metal Hammer magazines.
