"WELSH SPRINGSTEEN" RETURNS TO THE BROOKOne of acoustic music's most arresting artists, the Welsh singer songwriter has been in demand on both sides of the Atlantic for over two decades, notching up a string of top 50 hits (including Dolphins Make Me Cry and Please Sir), touring with the likes of Art Garfunkel and Jools Holland and winning fans everywhere with his uncanny fusion of material –feisty, pull no punches big issue numbers alongside stripped bare love songs. Voted Best Male Artist at the 2004 BBC Welsh Music Awards and often dubbed "the Welsh Springsteen" he's a mean guitar player with one of the most powerful voices on the circuit crafting songs with, as Bob Harris put it, "outstanding lyrical intelligence". On a UK tour showcasing his eagerly awaited new studio album Vegas he will unveil a slew of edgy new songs. But whether it's a vignette of glitzy, gambling Las Vegas or the valleys of his native Wales, a political or a personal song, you can be sure they'll all be expertly executed in a roller coaster performance of true light and shade…and a touch of wry humour thrown in for good measure. Always charming, sometimes alarming, Martyn Joseph is a unique songwriter who digs deep and delivers an ultimate, life affirming message. One of the most unusual and compelling performers you are likely to encounter. "Somewhere between Chris Rea and Mark Knopfler, with touches of Springsteen grit" – Q Magazine "A depth, resonance and emotional punch which belies comparison" – Q magazine. "One of the most charismatic and electrifying performers in Britain today" –Tom Robinson, BBC 6 |

Two
towering figures in the history of reggae play this unique
double bill to celebrate Ariwa records 25th anniversary.
Regarded with
awe throughout the music world, Lee 'Scratch' Perry holds
status as one of the most enduring and original reggae producers and
artists of all time.
From his early days in the 1960's as a singer and engineer for
Coxsone Dodd's Studio One in Kingston, through his production of
the seminal Wailers' classics, African
Herbsman and Soul Revolution,
Perry's innovative style marks him as one of reggae's original
treasures.
His on the edge creative genius remains evident in his own solo albums
of the 1970s and through his steady stream of mind-boggling releases
of the 1980s.
One of reggae's undisputed pioneers, Lee
'the Upsetter' Perry has worked with almost everyone from The
Heptones to The Skatalites to
The Clash.
Certainly one of his most notable contributions was the pairing of Bob
Marley to Peter Tosh and Bunny
Wailer with the Barnet Brothers (Carley
and 'Familyman' who had been the heart of the Perry's group, The
Upsetters) and thus the forming of the Bob
Marley and the Wailers.
After his own studio, Black Ark, burned to the ground in the late 1970's,
Perry laid low for a while, only to resurface with a vengeance in England
in the mid-1980s. He went back into the studio with a variety of partners,
from Adrian Sherwood to Terence
Trent D'Arby. Lee Perry has collaborated
with Mad Professor since 1983 and has recorded a number of released and
un-released albums.
Lee has embarked on many tours with Mad Professor & The
Robotiks.
They have played all over Europe, Japan, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand,
Argentina, Mexico.
Perry is perhaps the only 70 year old that can dance on one leg for
one hour straight!

Fantastic Rock Billing Featuring members of Whitesnake
and other Great Rock Acts.

For a huge army of fans around the world, the classic line-up of Whitesnake which
recorded albums such as 'Ready An' Willing', 'Live
In The Heart Of The City' and 'Come An' Get
it' was the definitive rock band of the late 70s and early 80s.
There is something unique about the combination of musicians who built Whitesnake's success
that cannot be replicated, and the songs that they wrote and recorded together
are still incredibly popular. The bluesy twin guitars of Bernie Marsden and Micky
Moody, together with bassist Neil Murray, are back
together in a new band, M3 - Classic Whitesnake, to perform
the songs that took Whitesnake to the stadiums of the world.
They are joined by well known guest musicians, including the incredible vocals
of Stefan Bergrren, best known for his work with Company of
Snakes and Snakes in Paradise, Jimmy Copley on drums from Paul
Rodger's and Tony Iommi's band and on keyboards Mark Stanway (Magnum,
Grand Slam) among others. Rock anthems like 'Ain't No love
In The Heart Of The City', 'Here I Go Again', 'Don't
Break My Heart Again' and 'Fool For Your Loving' are
just some of the many classic Whitesnake songs that M3
- Classic Whitesnake perform, with full audience participation expected!
The concept behind M3 is to build on the foundations of the
original Whitesnake members by experimenting with other top
players, including guest appearances from other early contributors to the Whitesnake story
(they were joined on stage by Don Airey in London, earlier this year). The touring
band consists of: Bernie Marsden (guitar/vocals) was a founder
member of Whitesnake but his career also includes stints with UFO, Wild Turkey,
Cozy Powell, Babe Ruth, PAL, Alaska, Moody Marsden, and recently the Company
of Snakes. He has done song writing, production and session work for many acts,
and outside of M3 Bernie leads his blues band, Big Boy Blue.
Micky Moody (guitar/vocals)is best known for his role in the definitive Whitesnake line-up, though his vast and varied career has included working with Juicy Lucy, Snafu, Graham Bonnet, Frankie Miller, Chris Farlowe, Roger Chapman, Moody Marsden Band and Company of Snakes. Neil Murray was also an original member of Whitesnake, playing on 8 albums and many tours, and is one of the most experienced bass guitarists in rock, recording and touring with bands and musicians such as Brian May, Black Sabbath, Gary Moore, Company of Snakes and Peter Green just to mention a few. He also is in the band for the hit musical We Will Rock You. Stefan Bergrren (vocals) was the awesome voice of Company of Snakes and Snakes in Paradise during the late 90s. Stefan has been compared with iconic vocalists such as Paul Rogers. Jimmy Copley (drums) is a fantastically powerful and funky drummer who is best known for touring and recording with artists such as Paul Rodgers, Tony Iommi, Ian Gillan and Jeff Beck. In the words of Bernie, "Jimmy drives the band like no other drummer since Cozy Powell or Ian Paice. He is exceptional." Mark Stanway is the keyboard backbone to long established prog-rockers, Magnum and during the 1980's he regularly topped 'best keyboardist' polls, coming third to the likes of Jon Lord and Don Airey. Listen to M3 live with your eyes closed and you would be forgiven for believing you were listening to Jon Lord and Ian Paice on stage with the M3 boys! M3 will also be promoting a forthcoming live DVD recorded in the summer of 2004, featuring both Stefan and Doogie White (ex-Rainbow singer) on vocals. This an an existing live album will be available from the bands website. Do you have iTunes? Then Click here for a preview :: |

Genesis were arguably the most layered and complex definers of the progressive rock sound. So recreating their sound as accurately as possible is a big challenge. G2 likes a challenge and this project continues to stretch them in all areas. What is their Ultimate Aim? To provide the audience with the real deal; to deliver the music as accurately as possible, but with live energy. To recreate the visual atmospherics - the 'goose pimple effect'. To deliver a magical evening of Genesis music that levels the floor for one and all. |

The Daily Telegraph. There seems to be two different methods employed by tribute bands in copying their heroes. One is to immerse themselves totally in character, become the band. The other is to still do this, but do it with tongue very much in cheek. So how to interpret the greatest pop group of all time? The Silver Beatles go for option B, not taking themselves too seriously and this approach definitely works for them. They indulge in banter among themselves and with the crowd, making the most out of the fact that every Beatle is instantly recognisable. The first half of the gig is the young Beatles, suits and mop tops, covering all the early hits; 'Saw her standing there, Can't buy me love' among others before finishing on 'Twist and Shout'. Then it's a quick break and costume change where they miraculously transform into the older, hippie era Beatles; the period where they wrote some of their finest songs. Just point non-believers to songs like 'In my life' and 'Let it be' which show, more so than the early years, why the Beatles are still held in such esteem. Not that anyone here needed convincing. The 500 plus crowd, arms held aloft, nah-nah-nah-ing during the encore of 'Hey Jude'. Nope, no non-believers were present. Review by Thomas Christie |

Over the years they have built a loyal following and it is this support that has kept the band not only on the road but still as soulful as when they started. The music is authentic soul with selections from The Blues Brothers and The Commitments, but the bulk of the set comes from the soul greats such as Otis Redding, James Brown, Wilson Pickett, Joe Tex and many others. During their time together there have been a number of highlights that include support to some of the top soul artists like Jimmy Ruffin, Edwin Starr, Curtis Mayfield, Geno Washington, Ben E King, and Gloria Gaynor. |

careers, and his forthcoming British tour with The Tubes.

The
debut SAS album features artists who collectively have appeared on many
(many) number one hit songs, including:
Chris Thompson, Tony Hadley, Kiki Dee, Roger Chapman, Roger
Taylor, and Madeline Bell. Featured musicians include Ian Anderson, John
Deacon, Peter Green, Cozy Powell, Jamie Moses & Charlie Morgan.
Tracks were recorded at Black Barn Studios in Ripley over
a two year period, where the complex process of melding the prolific array
of talent into an album was finally completed in April 1998.
The album is based on a 'half original/half cover' format.
Originals include the writers version of Chris Thompson's classic composition
'You're the voice', already a hit for John Farnham, and 'Original sin'. Covers
include epic arrangements of classic songs like 'That's the way god planned
it', 'The Name of the Game', and 'Didn't I blow your mind this time.'

Kid Carpet
Carrier Bag will come with some exclusive b-sides.
The single comes with a new track 'How To Turn Down Work' along
with a club banger remix of 'Carrier Bag' called 'Party
Bag'. It sounds like a warehouse party in Pontefract.
There is also the first 2 instalments of the Kid Carpet pop
quiz. The Kid has recorded miniature versions of some of his favourite
pop and metal tunes in his own inimitable style on toy instruments that
cost about £2. The first two instalments are included here as b-sides
with further tracks to be made available on his website. The winner of
the competition will win 'a crap prize'.
Both heroes have a deep history in
a variety of genres, sharing influences from Miles Davis to Bob Marley
to The Clash, and both now share the same landlord. For various reasons
the duo found themselves sharing a flat together at the turn of 2005
and after many late night conversations, lengthy musical debates and
story-telling sessions, the duo that had now become good friends decided
it was only right to combine their two studios. The short move from
each other's respected bedrooms to the 'the lounge' took place and a
new production partnership was born. It was quick, natural and 'felt
right' and the next ten months have taken them to the brink of breaking
through.
As you will know, Glenn Tilbrook is an exceptional song writer and musician who shot to world fame with one of the best bands to come out of Britain, Squeeze.

The world's No.1 Thin Lizzy tribute band
G2. Definitive Genesis performed live, perfectly and with passion. The seed of G2 can be traced back to 1997 and they truly capture the sound, energy and atmosphere of Genesis with fervour and sincere feeling. This is an incredible tribute.
You have got to be a little mad (some would say insane) about music to create a tribute band like this.

"...Cover bands are big business these days, but this quartet are clearly a cut above most with suits, mop-tops and jerking stage manoeuvres all in place as they blast out 'From Me To You', 'Roll Over Beethoven' and 'Please, Please Me' with note-perfect aplomb."
Mick Slacker & Co's tounge in cheek tribute act just gets better and better.
"2 tonic arrived on stage and lifted the atmosphere up a few more notches until at one stage it seemed as though every person in the room was dancing at the same time. Even the people stood around the edges seemed to be bouncing up and down, whether they wanted to or not. Humberside seismic investigators later recorded a disturbance registering 3.2 on the Richter scale."
The Queens perform a show packed with the hits, anthems and live favourites from the world's most majestic rock 'n' roll band. With great attention to detail, they bring you the look, sound, raw energy and showmanship of Queens' most memorable live gigs, faithfully recreating highlights of their Live Killers Tour '79, Montreal '81, Milton Keynes Bowl '82 and Wembley '86.
Time
to dance the night away with the band who make every gig a party night!
Those that have followed the band will know that the Rufus Stone Soul Band, based in their home town of Southampton, has been around in many guises since their start in late 1984. After all this time you would expect that some of the sparkle would have gone, not a bit. They still have the same distinctive sound, which ensures that they get the maximum involvement from their audience.
