One to watch: Doll & The Kicks

 Who?: Doll & The Kicks – a four piece indie pop/rock band featuring Doll (vocals), Matt (Guitar), Olivier (Bass) and Chris (Drums)
 
Where?: Brighton, UK
 
What?: Indie Pop/Rock – Upbeat; Jangly; Driven; Gwen Steffani(ish)
 
Formed?: 2005 (while attending University in Brighton)
 
Resume:
“…The band were singled out from the Brighton music scene when they were invited by BBC Southern Counties to perform at the BBC Introducing stage at Glastonbury 2007. Since Glastonbury, Doll and The Kicks have been busy playing live and recording tracks in the studio with producers Oscar the Punk, (who are known for their remixes for Gwen Stefani, Robyn, Moby and Roisin Murphy) and Grammy Award winning mixer and producer Simon Gogerly (Madonna, U2).
 
2008 has seen their live shows emerge with performances that include, The Great Escape, London Calling, Beachdown Festival and Brighton Live, as well as dates throughout the UK and Europe. Media enthusiasm has grown with coverage from Sub TV, Channel M, BBC Southern Counties, Kerrang Radio, The Brighton Guide, London Lite, Total Guitar, Artrocker, Ponytail Magazine and You Got Papped.
 
Autumn 2008 has the band busy solidifying their ‘ones to watch’ status, by appearing on the Diet Coke music portal, recording their debut album and building on their existing fanbase with selected live dates. “

Lily Allen: New single

 I’m sure that you’ll have already picked up on this…
 
Lily Allen’s  forthcoming single off her new album (scheduled for early 2009) is called ‘Everyone’s At It’.
 
I’m a fairly staunch LA fan so, naturally, I think it’s good.
 
Have a listen and see for yourself.

Concert Reviews: mel.opho.be

  I’ve recently been contacted by a great site called mel.opho.be  who provide concert reviews, photographs, etc.

They’re based out of Boston, USA and have a small but dedicated team who provide the core information on the site. However, if you are attending a concert in the near future and you fancy writing a brief review and sharing any pictures you take, you’re invited to contact them and they are quite likely to publish your work.
 
The site’s been running for about a year now and has some good content.
 
Well worth a visit here: mel.opho.be

They have also been added to this site’s Blogroll so you can click on over to them any time you like.
