Oranj Son


No automatic alt text available.


Oranj Son are a four piece Psych Punk band from Ellesmere Port comprising Kieran Linford (guitar & vocals), Lew Yii (drums), Brad Welch-Harley (bass) and Matthew Linford (keys/synths). 

The band, whose influences range from Echo and the Bunnymen and Teardrop Explodes to LCD Soundsystem and Sonic Youth, have been together for two years and Oranj Son have already made a big impact on Liverpool's music scene since they made their live debut at Sound City in 2015.

Ralph gave their latest single Still a spin on last Sunday's Indie Show on Radio KC.

“Liverpool is full of great, quirky and fascinating bands at the moment. The latest to catch our attention are 4 piece Oranj Son whose curiously spelt name hints at their twisted and brilliant music which is a tripped out take on wonky psychedelic, gritty northern Fall style grooves and laced with great melodies" - John Robb

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.

Nightfire might not be as straightforward as the The Jackobins previous songs, yet it is their most enticing one to date. It shows a band that has honed their skill set over the past couple of years and managed to develop their sound with every release. 





Here's how The Jackobins describe their subtly stunning new single in their own words...

"Nightfire's concept arises from the idea that when it comes to inner struggle we should open up, rather than let pride act as a vice. 

Sometimes our demons are extremely close to consuming ones identity and too compelling to fight on our own. It's a song reminding us that we shouldn't forget that even tho at times it might seem so, we're never alone."
