- We're Going To Islington 18/10/16
And on the subject of supporting venues, we are off to the Islington Assembly Hall tonight to see legendary Blues Rock guitarist and singer-songwriter, Robin Trower, best known for his 1974 milestone album 'Bridge of Sighs'.

- Fuzzwalker 17/10/16
And talking of Albany Down - Fuzzwalker is a raw, rousing, riff-driven Indie Brit-Rock band that AD bass guitarist Billy Dedman and drummer Donna Peters have helped form from the bottom up. Up front they have found the next Noel Gallagher in a young lad called Matt Brook from Isleworth, and boy can he write a tune. And then to finish up the line up they have unearthed Carlos, a fine young guitarist of Spanish origin. It's a bit of a departure from the Blues Rock they are most known for but they hope with your support it can help them elevate Fuzzwalker. The guys have recently recorded a demo which they think captures the electric energy they are feeling in the rehearsal room before the launch of their first EP!
