Excerpts
Recent press reports claim that the British scene is in a stage of "anything is possible." The English press frantically creates and destroys trends at faster speeds than music lovers can comprehend.
Scene Report
Thumbs: A band that's been around a few years. Starting out rough, but with loads of energy they've matured into a musical force. Their sound is a cross section of music, covering the field, from soul to new wave.
Local Scene Report
…Bob Marley shows himself as being just as relevant today as he was years and years ago. The roots sounds are definitely here with an emphasis on Africa and struggling.
