Warmest regards, Wrexham musicians. We had a great time at Glastonbury and as I'm sure you can imagine, we waved the wrexham flag high and proud. Our new 6 track ep is now available to download on our page and its totally free. Come on over and check us out. Thank you and thank you xx
Much more predictable is the quality and creative genius of the musicians of Wales. Which is why I'm lucky enough to present a 3hr show fabricated from the finest new music that Wales has to offer. Well, the finest new music that Wales has to offer that gets sent to me.
If you have some damn fine new Welsh music and you're Welsh, or live in Wales, there is the small matter of the Demo of the Week to vie for:
Please include a contact telephone number that you will be on at 9:30pm *tonight* and a short bio.
If you have a gig to plug, some news to share, or -- indeed -- any other correspondence, you can mail it to the same address.
*Tonight* we will be hearing from Rebecca Hot Puppy... she's going to remind us about their splendid new single, 'Somewhere', and tell us exactly what is happening to the Hot Puppies whilst she takes a sabbatical to have a baby. Soundhog might look pregnant, but the only babies he's concerned with are the ones that belong to his incredibly extensive and well-arranged record collection. Huw Williams is in again to tell us about Welsh music past. *AND* The Kaptin will be coming aboard to tell us about Roxe Jam, a free weekend of hip hop culture in Cardiff on the weekend July 26 - July 27th.
Should be a good one!
You can text me *during the show* on: 07786 20 10 40

The incredible Akira the Don will blow minds and burn soles at Telfords Warehouse in Chester, *THIS* Friday night.
Akira is currently working on his second album with famed Yankee producer Stephen Hague (Pet Shop Boys, New Order, Robbie Williams), and spent the past year writing songs, making mixtapes, cartoons, and strange celebrity fans (Alex James, Andy Bell, Konnie Huq) incurring the wrath of Kim Deal, and producing songs for people, including a top 40 hit for Lethal Bizzle with the Clash sampling Police On My Back. And some remixes. Gonzales liked his Working Together remix so much he asked Akira to come and perform it with him at the ICA. His music has been featured in movies both big (My Super Ex Girlfriend) and small (Finding Diego) and on TV shows both British (Hollyoaks) and American (CSI), but his proudest achievement is probably still supporting Jim Bob from Carter USM at the Islington Academy.
His second album will be out in the Autumn.

So, join us for a night of eclecticity and not-to-be-missed entertainment at Telfords Warehouse, Chester on Friday 20th June 2008 from 8pm - 2am. *FREE* before 9pm & £4 afterwards.
See my Pet Sounds page for details of the kind of great tunes that I will be playing before & after Akira.
