- Gig #2 Tonite - The Brothers Landreth 3/3/16
"Joey and Ariel’s boogie-woogie guitars heralded ‘Runaway Train’ as we continued down the ‘LIL’ track slowing down at ‘Nothin’, then all-change with the hand-clapping audience participation of the Staple Singers ‘Tell Him What You Want – Jesus On The Mainline’ and then back on track and finishing with the album stand-out ‘Our Love’ – and again despite no keys - the foundation of the song was built for the classic guitar solo from Posen - although the Prog in me maintains it ends too early! The guys were on a roll and the encore began slowly with the delightful ‘Greenhouse’, continued with ‘Where Were We’ and despite their ‘roots’ being from Winnipeg - ‘Dixie’ I suppose was never more appropriate to round off a memorable evening!" That was AJ's take on The Brothers Landreth last August and both Mr. Rockrpix and Big Ian will be there at The Garage, London, representing the WRC tonight!
- That Tuesday Feeling! 15/3/16
BRIT award-nominated English Rock band The Feeling (today's Vid Of The Day) conclude their six-date UK headline tour at London’s Scala tonight. Ten years after the release of their debut album 'Twelve Stops and Home', the tour comes in support of their new single 'Spiralling' and their self-titled fifth album 'The Feeling', both released recently on 4th March.
- Avantasia Bounce Back! 27/2/16
His giant project can't be pigeonholed: mystic, magic, rock and bombast meet with lush melodies and create spectacular, epic fireworks. German fans of the Eurovision Song Contest had the chance to nominate Avantasia and Tobias Sammet - one of the most internationally successful German musicians - in Cologne on Thursday night for the 2016 ESC final in Stockholm in May. Unfortunately, despite competing with their current single 'Mystery Of A Blood Red Rose' (today's Vid Of The Day) - Sammet and the guys did not win - but the good news is that you can see Avantasia on their 'Ghostlights' tour at The Forum in London on Tuesday 8th March!
- Introducing ..... The Pieces Of Mind 12 Feb 2015
Teddy Garcia tweeted "It's an Honour!" and Sean Webster also tweeted "Thanks for the kind words and making 'The Mayor' your 'Track of the Day!!!' Well today's 'Introducing ...' and 'Our Video Of The Day' are 'The Pieces Of Mind'. These guys have been on the WRC radar for a while now and were a very popular R&B band in South Wales and Germany in the years 1963-69. The band reformed in 2013 to celebrate their 50th anniversary and are not only gigging again but have recently released a great new album of original stuff entitled 'Born At The Bosco'. Enjoy!

Our BluesRockfest jigsaw is now complete as The Rainbreakers have filled the sixth and final berth on the 4th July at The Red Lion in Gravesend. Renown for crafting a stripped down approach - smearing the lines between rock, pop, blues and soul - they are another valuable addition to an already awesome line-up. Go here for ticket information plus a video low-down on this year's bands.

- Rock On The Ridge! 22 Feb 2015
We've always said that our WRC members are a talented bunch and Bob Wilson and Julia Maidment are no exception. Not only did Bob provide us with some awesome pics from our Blacktop Deluxe/Loose Moorings Fiddler's Elbow gig last Saturday - but Bob and Julia gave a review of the gig on Ridge Radio on the 'Rock on the Ridge' show last night. We will try and bring you the footage over the next couple of days!
- Valentine's Day Spectacular! 15 Feb 2015
Blacktop Deluxe and Loose Moorings made the ultimate sacrifice of being in the other half's bad books worthwhile last night. Two storming sets of good ol' Blues Rock made the punters who braved the Fiddler's Elbow in Chalk Farm forget about being in the proverbial dog house. Anyway, our 'Video Of The Day' is testament to what a great gig it was - with a review, more pics and vids to follow tomorrow. And if you were there last night then give us a shout by e-mailing us below! Cheers.
