So why did I do this? We went away on holiday last Sunday, to stay with family in Poole, and I decided I wanted to be completely off the grid, […]
Steve StuffThis isn’t going to be a huge review as it’s far too hot to be sat at my laptop after a day at work, but I couldn’t let last night go without saying a few words. Those who know me will be by now get that I’m a huge Danni Nicholls fan, and ever since […]
Live Music, Reviews Danni NichollsAs a family we love the beach, so any time we can get a long weekend away such as the bank holiday weekend earlier this month, we take the opportunity to visit the coast. Back in 2015 we spent a week in Cromer during the summer and fell in love with the place, to the […]
Reviews, Travel CromerI first heard of Whitney Rose sometime in the latter half of 2017, though her career goes back more than half a decade before that. Her latest album, Rule 62, took the number 9 spot in my Top 10 Albums of 2017, and had I listened to it more in 2017, I’m sure it would […]

I usually go to David’s Music in Letchworth, but as soon as I heard that Danni Nicholls was […]

Without even the slightest hint of hyperbole I have never, that I can remember, listened to an album so many times […]
Music, Reviews Kacey MusgravesA little while ago this festival called The Long Road kind of appeared on social media and had it’s home on the internet at thelongroad.com. At this point we didn’t know a great deal about it, other than it was set to run September 9th-11th and is being spearheaded by BBC Radio and Chris Country’s […]
Live Music, Music Angaleena Presley, Ashley Campbell, Billy Bragg, Danni Nicholls, Lee Ann Womack, Megan O'Neill, Striking Matches, The Long Road, The Shires, The Worry DollsIt felt like this book was made for me, given how many incredible female country music artists fill my playlist on a daily basis. What I didn’t realise, until I received and opened it, was that each featured artist is chronicled by a different writer, giving many different perspectives and experiences. It’s fascinating, reading the […]
100 Word Book Reviews, MusicI’m sure there are many people who will raise their eyebrows substantially when reading this, but this is the list of my top 10 favourite animated Disney films, at least today anyway. I didn’t grow up with Disney so I have no childhood memories of watching Disney films, except Bambi, which I find as dull […]
