STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: It's been 4 years since Courteeners' 6th LP, and the brilliant Pink Cactus Cafe continues their run of effortlessly melodic indie-rock that's both deep and hook-filled. this time sees the album bathed a little more of a summery optimistic haze, particularly in the eponymous debut single.

Far From Saints

Far From Saints

Kelly Jones of Stereophonics has co-written an album with Austin’s Patty Lynn and Dwight Baker (aka The Wind and The Wave) resulting in the formation of a new band Far From Saints, evoking a cross-genre sound spanning country, rock, folk, and Americana. Far From Saints is a project born from a shared, unadulterated love of music and collaboration, rich with emotions, creative integrity and defined by the unique sound of Kelly and Patty’s vocal harmonies.

Kelly, Patty and Dwight first experimented playing together when performing a cover version of Stevie Nicks and Tom Petty’s ‘Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around’ on Kelly Jones’ solo UK tour in 2019 (Dwight and Patty were openers for Kelly each night). Very soon on that UK tour, the three found themselves jamming and co-writing songs in backstage hallways, dressing rooms, soundchecks and hotels. Each songwriter subconsciously merging their influences to nourish the alchemy between two formidable singers. They booked recording sessions, one at the end of each leg of the tour and completed the entire album in just nine days. While it was created remarkably quickly, it also took years to be unveiled after the pandemic left them an ocean apart. Still captivatingly fresh, the album is now ready to be shared with the world.

Having played gigs with Sam Fender, Liam Gallagher, Stereophonics and Courteeners, Dylan also played a sold-out headline show at Glasgow’s legendary Barrowland earlier this year. Fresh from making his Glastonbury debut, he will be appearing at festivals throughout the summer, including a main stage slot at TRNSMT, with a headline tour to follow this November.

Dylan John Thomas

Dylan John Thomas EP

A melody-rich ode, Jenna skits along, bobs and weaves, moving through the gears at will. It’s ridiculously infectious - an indie guitar song destined for the terraces. Play it once and you’ll have the melody looped, play it twice and you’ll already be singing along to the refrain.

Dealing almost solely in earworms, young Dylan hails from the east end of Glasgow and is already ticking all the right boxes. He sold out the legendary King Tuts quicker than any other debuting Scot, and clocked over a million streams of his earliest introductory material. Mentored by Gerry Cinnamon, who took Dylan touring to sold-out arenas across this fair isle and into Europe, and hand-picked by Liam Gallagher to support him at the aircraft-hanger sized Hydro Arena. These are all telling rites of passage, and as Summer finally arrives, Dylan will inevitably be filling out the tent stages, the crowd belting these songs back to him.

Inevitably aside, there would surely be few to deny him success. Enduring a tumultuous upbringing in foster care, Dylan was not given much encouragement to pick up a guitar in the first place. It’s a talent nurtured through despondency and resilience, a lad made of sterner stuff. Over the course of the forthcoming EP Dylan John Thomas makes a habit of telling his story in the most propulsive and colourful of ways, and whilst his journey might appear already a few chapters in, really this is just the start. Join him.
