The Ivor Novello Awards are an annual celebration of the best displays of song writing over the past twelve months. It’s British biased, but also highlights songs from abroad which sold particularly well.
This year’s nominations have been revealed, and there is one woman head and shoulders above the rest. Amy Winehouse has managed to secure […]
At last week’s Brit Awards, one of the many highlights was the collaboration between Rihanna and Klaxons.
The two artists, whose styles vary wildly, made a mashup of Umbrella and Golden Skans work as if the songs had been written in unison, and were always meant to go together.
Now, Rihanna has expressed an interest in […]
8pm - Mika opens the show with his distinct brand of high pitched camp goodness. There’s no flashy backgrounds or staging, with the focus seeming to be on his actual singing, and stage presence instead. Which is a refreshing change.

But it was Winehouse […]
The Oxjam festival is a month long UK wide musical extravaganza organised by the charity Oxfam. It started last year and the first event took place during October 2006 raising over £500,000.
This year’s event is due to be even bigger, with 3,000 gigs and events happening all over the country during the whole of […]
The Klaxons are a weird bunch, when I first heard them I wasn’t too impressed, but over the last few months their brand of art rock/new rave has converted me. Now I’m a fan. There’s something brilliant about them which I can’t quite put my finger on. They seem amateurish but you know when it […]
