The Roscoes


Some old school rocking it out is on the way from Liverpool band The Roscoes.

They release a double A-side single on Friday and Skin/The Wall is a full on assault on your aural sensibilities. The two tracks have been produced by Pete Robertson, The Vaccines drummer, and mastered by Russell Cottier of the Grammy award winning Parr Street Studios.

Skin has a sleazy bluesy feel with an immaculate vocal and guitar solos reminiscent of early Free. The Wall is in your face from note one. Pounding drums and punchy vocal backed up by more of that spectacular guitar musicality from The Roscoes.





Not difficult to understand when The Roscoes cite influences ranging from soul legends Sam Cooke, Otis Redding and James Carr to country rock bands such as Creedence Clearwater Revival, Neil Young and Little Feat to rock legends including Jimi Hendrix, Deep Purple and Bruce Springsteen.

The Roscoes are, Edd Barlow - Lead Vocal & Guitar, James Cudworth - Bass & Vocals, Bill Gelling - lead Guitar & Vocals and Brad Malbon on Drums.

You can also look forward to two quality videos for the tracks filmed by Dom Brooks and Matt Lee (Neptune Aerial Works & TableTop). Set your new music alarm clock to 25.2.16 for some proper rock 'n' roll.

Mountain Jam

Ralph's featuring Lemon And Lime the latest release by Midlands band Mountain Jam on his Radio KC Indie Show this Sunday. 

It's psychedelic, 'Madchester-esque' guitar driven sound is quietly addictive and sure to be a firm favourite with their fans at gigs, the next of which is in Hinckley on March 25th.

No surprises Mountain Jam cite The Who, Small Faces, Stone Roses, and The Charlatans as influences as there are shades of them all woven into this offering.





Mountain Jam are, Dean Dovey on vocals & rhythm guitar, Andy Varden on lead guitar, Nick Robert on Bass and Pez on drums. 

Despite only having formed in March of 2015 they've quickly developed a tight, well-crafted sound. 

Last year saw the release of a Double A-side single, Jeleaous Of Me and the flip side, Lust, which was followed by the critically acclaimed EP. This year should see them increase their fan-base as they seek out not only festival appearances but also gigs country-wide. Get on it!
