I love Lily Allen with a passion. Yes I know she’s got a potty mouth, as one of my friends keeps reminding me, and yes, I know she’s probably more big headed than is deserved with the limited success she has had outside of her native UK, but I don’t care, there is still something […]

What is happening to in the UK right now that makes people go insane enough to buy Sean Kingston’s ‘Beautiful Girls’? I can’t believe it, but yes, it is number 1 right now, moving up from last week’s number 2 position.

Zutons guitarist Boyan Chowdhury left the band on July 13th in a supposedly amicable split caused by that old favourite “musical differences“. Well now, just 10 days later, he’s formed a new band called ‘The Gravity Trap’, a completely Liverpudlian affair.
