It was the last night of the tour for The Stanley’s at The Heartbreakers in Southampton and having seen them last November supporting Cast I wasn’t going to miss the opportunity, especially at such a small intimate venue. The printed poster by the door set 9.15 as a set time and two supports, they’re spoiling…
Acoustic Indie Rock in Cuban Heels The Kooks performed an outstore in support of their new album ‘Never/Know’ at the 1865 in Southampton last night for Vinilo Record Store.

Ballad of the Bystander is here! The Reytons have found the formula, and they are sticking to it! That’s a good thing? NO label, NO backing, ALL Reytons! they shouted from the stage 14 months ago in Brighton and every other gig I’m sure, a battle cry chasing that number one spot and they achieved…
