The Bootleg Beatles: At Kenwood House, London
A double bill of great music will take to the outdoor stage in the stunning grounds of Kenwood House in North London on Sunday 17th June as part of this year's Heritage Live Concert Series.
The sensational Bootleg Beatles come to Kenwood fresh from a sell-out at London's Royal Albert Hall this week. Having formed in 1980, they are without doubt the world's premiere tribute band; an institution in their own right. Having sold out arenas across the world for almost four decades, their note-perfect recreation of hits from the world's most famous songbook have made The Bootleg Beatles an enthralling live show.
Every tiny detail is meticulously covered, from costumes to authentic period instruments; from Liverpudlian banter to their inflection-perfect vocal mimicry. As the late Sir George Martin simply said, "A terrific show". The Kenwood show will see the band perform their full production accompanied by a string and brass ensemble.
Tickets go on sale, Friday 27th April.

Erol Alkan: Future Four Debut
Initially paying tribute to the analogue absurdity, sonic diversity and sheer imagination of the early 90s dance music landscape, Future Four returns after a hiatus of several years, pushing into new eras, machines and ideals with 'Connection'. Initially a solo project of Andy Meecham, the brains behind Emperor Machine, Chicken Lips, and Bizarre Inc., 'Connection' is the first Future Four release to feature the contribution of Erol Alkan as a permanent member, and is a coupled with a remix from I:Cube.
A veritable powerhouse of synths, vintage drum machines and all manner of effects, 'Connection' unfolds with minimal tempo and maximum impact, as sequences of unexpected electronics gradually build from every direction, each landing with the razor sharp precision associated with their composers. Cascading synths overflow like fizzy drinks, propelling the track along an electronic patchwork of FM synthesis and psychedelia.

14 Apr, 2018Bryde: Debut Album 'Like An Island'
Throughout her career Bryde has tackled challenging subject matter, exploring the curious relationship between vulnerability and empowerment with a psychological nuance and honesty that pegs her as a truly distinct new voice on the international indie circuit.
Mixed by Catherine Marks (Wolf Alice, PJ Harvey and St Vincent), and mastered by Mandy Parnell, her debut album 'Like An Island' is a record of catharsis which gives a voice to bad times and exorcises old demons.
Other credits include Domino's Bill Ryder-Jones who produced last year's "sensational" (Sunday Times) EP 2, Chris Sorem, Simon Byrt and Kristoffer Rylander.Prefaced by the singles 'Desire', 'Peace' and 'To Be Brave', 'Like An Island' is the sound of an artist confronting the perplexities of lived experience to rise from the fathomless depths remade, an island of calm from an ocean of chaos. While not a concept album, its music interrogates the bipolar states we all find ourselves in. Through the sparsity of piano ballad 'Euphoria' she reminds us that each descent into the depths of crippling self doubt is also an opportunity to emerge remade. But all too often, these free falls make us easy prey to the temptations of self-annihilation as the motorik and hell-raising 'Fast Awake' cannily points out.
It comes out today through Bryde's own label Seahorse Music which was founded it to publish records by like-minded women and help make them more visible in a male-dominated industry. This record is the culmination of all of Bryde's experience with her craft so far, and support for it is also rapidly ramping up, with NPR recognising Bryde's voice as "equally stunning and chilling."
Bryde has just set off on her biggest UK, IRE and EU tour so far. It's a sprawling 29 date stretch in April and May that will see her peddling her inimitable brand of incisive lyricism and raucous rock and roll to her widest audience yet. She also plays Latitude, Boardmasters, Y Not and Standon Calling among other festivals this summer.
'Like An Island' comes out today on Seahorse Music.

Ziggy Marley: New Album & Tour
Eight-time Grammy award winning musician and reggae icon Ziggy Marley will release his seventh full-length solo studio album, 'Rebellion Rises' on May 18th through Tuff Gong Worldwide. Fully written, recorded and produced by Marley, this passionate and indelible new collection of music encourages people to stand together in activism through love.
"The rebellion begins in the mind, the melody, and the music" assures Ziggy. "We are a conduit of that. The rebellion is consciousness. Now the consciousness starts spreading, we become aware and we rise."
No track embodies this message better than the album's title track and official first single 'Rebellion Rises'. A manifesto with a chant-like chorus, the song emboldens its listeners to use the power we all have as instruments of positive change around the world.
"The better side of humanity, cannot let the side of humanity that push negativity and hatred be more willing," Marley explained in a recent interview. "It cannot happen. It's a battle of wills. We've got to have more will."
'Rebellion Rises' marks Ziggy's first studio release in two years, following 2016's critically acclaimed self-titled project which took home the 2016 Grammy award for 'Best Reggae Album' and marked his fourth consecutive debut at #1 on the Billboard Top Reggae Album Chart.
Pre-orders for 'Rebellion Rises' are available at ziggymarley.com beginning today, and digital pre-orders will be available starting Friday, April 6th. All digital pre-orders will include an instant grat track of 'Rebellion Rises', which is also now available for streaming on Spotify, Pandora and Apple Music.See his artist page for forthcoming tour dates.
