My upcoming birthday celebrations are filled with apprehension instead of elation;  next week will mark the day of me hitting my 'late' twenties.  By miracle someone upstairs had clearly recognised my reservations on turning a year older and pulled out a Birthday treat via the medium of documentary. Next week sees the release of George [...]

Aside from the recent riots and the (continuous) conundrum of the economic crisis in this country, it’s not all doom and gloom in the UK, not for me anyway. I have grown what can only be described as an unhealthy obsession for the rural setting of Oxfordshire. If you have read any of my post [...]

After a severe case of FOMO (fear of missing out), a last minute decision to attend the Wilderness festival, Secret Garden's charming little sibling, made me realise this is how every Sunday afternoon should be spent.

Montreal’s Grimes, A.K.A 22year old Claire Boucher, is extending Canada’s recent penchant for the (Austra-like) ethereal end of weird pop.

Aside from diverse musical influences, avant-goth-chic Claire is a proven boundary pusher too, attempting to sail [...]
