AS PLAYED ON RADIO KC - 11.6.17
RALPH'S BRAND NEW TOP 10 CHART
No 1 The Moods
Ralph has been featuring the Blackthorn Festival on the blog recently due to the fact that it's near Manchester and probably the best value for money small festival in the UK.
We've also been singling out a few Manchester bands for some special attention and today it's The Moods turn.
Jamie & Shoony play anthems that have them making waves in Scotland and collecting a loyal fanbase.
They have played to sell out crowds in some of the country's finest venues such as Glasgow's Barrowland Ballroom, O2 ABC, Kings Tuts, The Electric Circus and Saint Lukes.
No 3: Himalayas
Cardiff four-piece Himalayas unveil a new video for their single Thank God I’m Not You and Ralph is giving it a spin on this Sunday's Indie Show on Radio KC and looking forward to catching them live in The Magnet, Liverpool.The Tom Large directed video takes place at the derelict St. Luke’s Church in the Welsh town Abercarn. Filming of the video took place in a day spanning 22 hours, with the generator almost cutting out in the middle of the night.
No 4: Ceiling Demons
Ralph has followed the musical progression of North Yorkshire based dark hip-hoppers (it's grim up north) Ceiling Demons with increasing interest as they develop their unique soundscape.
Never shy about capturing the frailties of the human state after initially getting together to pay tribute to a lost friend and then through their musical practice addressing mental health issues; Ceiling Demons have, with the release of their new single March Forward attained a new level of not just retrospective sadness but optimism and aspiration.
No 5: Culann
Culann are long time Ralph's Life favourites after not only donating a track for the Ralph's Life CD for Rethink Mental Illness but travelling down to London to play the CD's launch night in the capital's iconic venue Proud Camden.The Culann journey has seen them play The Barrowlands, King Tuts 13 times, Wickerman Festival, Tiree Music Festival, GoNorth & Celtic Park, home of Celtic Football Club.
No 6: Ali Ingle
Once again Ali Ingle has proved his pedigree as one of the UK's most promising singer songwriters with the release of his delightfully retrospective new single Saintly and we're delighted to be giving it an exclusive premiere here on Ralph's Life.
"I'm really proud to exclusively show you my debut video release with Coconut Creatives They are a cool bunch of people who together make up a London based creative content agency."
No 7: The Hudson Super 6
News just in that The Hudson Super 6 are releasing their Ride The Tiger EP on June 9th via the Bristol based indie label Ingue Records. Formed from the ashes of cult angular noise.mongers Cable, quietcore band Iris and one-time Shifty Disco and Fierce Panda noise pop darlings Scribble, The Hudson Super 6 EP heralds a third time lucky and hopefully victorious return with it's fuzzed-up blues-tinged desert rock infused with massive riffs.
No 8: Guide Dog
The tale (or should that be tail) of Guide Dog is many-fold and intriguing and unfolds thus...
No 9: The Jackobins
After a very successful 2016 playing dozens of festivals such as Sound City, Y Not Festival, Dot to Dot etc. and a rather drastic lineup change, fast rising Scouse act The Jackobins are back with an anthemic new single called Nightfire.
Needless to say Ralph will be giving the track a spin on the Radio KC Indie Show and that will be coming up on May 14th from 5-7pm.
No 10: Artbreak
Ralph's favourite video this week is Will To Survive by London band Artbreak.
