Jerry Fish has brought us one of the catchiest tunes of 2013 in ‘Barefoot & Free’. He’s enlisted the services of R.S.A.G on drums, and put together a pretty funky video to go with it! If you’re going to the Electric Picnic, make sure to pay a visit to his ‘The Jerry Fish Electric Sideshow’ stage at Electric Picnic’s Trailer Park.
We all have the potential to become slightly obsessive about things; I’m no exception. Perhaps obsessive is an overstatement, but I have been enjoying The David Neligan Thing’s Who Is Synthia EP. ‘Bodies at Rest (Potential Energy)’ is the lead track, which conjures up all sorts of musical reference points (good ones!)
