- Stronger Together 14/8/17
American Blues star Jonny Lang has released another track 'Stronger Together' (today's Vid Of The Day) from his upcoming album 'Signs', out on Friday 25th August via Provogue/Mascot Label Group. Anyone who originally discovered Jonny Lang through his searing instrumental work will revel in the huge guitar tones and go for broke solos on 'Signs', while those who have appreciated his growth as an honest and passionate songwriter will find that honesty and passion unabated. Though he long ago left Blues purism behind, Lang has never abandoned its spirit of universal catharsis through the relating of personal trials. 'Signs' reaffirms his commitment to the Blues and the guitar without sacrificing the modern approach that has made him such a singular artist.

- Nothing Left 13/8/17
And talking of Punk - Bristol-based Pop Punks Highlives have released their brand new single ‘Nothing Left’, which premiered in the UK last Thursday with Punktastic and New Noise Magazine in the US. The track bounces with energetic drums and high-octane lead guitar phrases that shimmer and glare in equal measure. The single follows their EP 'Misguided Youth', released in 2015 to great reviews. Consequently, the band have garnered interest and support from the likes of Kerrang!, Rock Sound, Scuzz TV and more for their previous singles ‘Better Days’ and ‘Wake Me Up’. The band – comprising of Liam Edwards (vocals), Ben Lucas (guitar/vocals), Jordan Tomkins (guitar/vocals), James Holt (bass) and Steve Parks (drums) – have toured extensively across the UK, building a dedicated fan base, and in addition to headline shows they have shared the stage with the likes of Neck Deep, As It Is, Boston Manor and many more. Highlives are still currently gigging around the UK with more dates to be announced as the year progresses.
- Xander & The Peace Pirates RMF Interview 13/8/17
Probably the most surreal interview of the Ramblin' Man Fair weekend took place with Liverpool's Xander And The Peace Pirates. Unbelievably, for some reason, this really great bunch of guys did not have access to the media area and we ended up doing the interview outside with Keith Xander (lead guitar/vocals, Stuart Xander (guitars), Mike Gay (slide guitar, guitar/vocals), Joel Goldberg (bass) and Adam Goldberg (drums) - where we found out that they had already played The Rising Stage despite the RMF itinerary saying it was Sunday. Would you believe also believe the guys follow up interview was with Nicky Horne, no less, and our valiant attempt to locate Nicky in the media area for XATPP was unfortunately unsuccessful (you couldn't make it up). Anyway, listen to today's Wrinklycast Track Of The Day here where the former Cavern residents discuss their Soul, Blues and Rock influences plus their debut album '11:11'.
- Bigfoot 12/8/17
Bigfoot's self-titled debut album is out on Friday 13th October via Frontiers. Co-produced by the band with Justin Richards (who also mixed the record), it consists of eleven songs including today's Vid Of The Day 'The Fear'. They are a Hard Rock band from Wigan who burst onto the scene in the spring of 2014. With a wide range of influences from The Eagles through to Pantera, the group boasts the powerful vocals of Antony Ellis, dual lead guitars from Sam Millar and Mick McCullagh, plus the thunderous rhythm section of bassist Matt Avery and drummer Tom Aspinall. Having toured constantly around the UK and performed at festivals including Breakout, Bloodstock, Hard Rock Hell, Steelhouse and more, the quintet have built themselves a loyal grassroots following in their home territory. Two successful self-released EP’s also drew the attention of the Naples based Rock powerhouse Frontiers Music Srl, who signed them to their roster as fast as they could!
