INTRODUCING….

Robin’s Egg Blue.

Sticking with our Folk  theme, let us introduce you to a band which found us this week.

Robin’s Egg Blue are a Japanese band based in new york.

Celebrating truly beautiful chill out acoustics, the band combine them with a magnetic vocalist who can only attract you into listening to the rest of their sound cloud.

Their talent is undoubted yet their music is still in the early stages, so enjoy this hidden gem artist, and keep an eye out to watch them grow .

FIRSTPLAY’s FRESHEST»

Mumford and Son’s NEW SINGLE - I Will Wait

Courtesy of Radio1, who have just had the world exclusive of this song minutes ago - This is the return of Mumford and Sons!

They took the world by storm; bringing the sound of the country into the 21st century and smashing charts worldwide. Who would have thought it? But now the game changing energetic London band are here with the first release off their upcoming and much anteicipated new album Babel.

And how does a band so different from everything else out there progress between albums? Well we can’t wait for the album to find out fully but this first single from it screams “We are big, we know it , you know, this song’s a number one, enjoy it” and why shouldn’t it! It’s bolder than anything from there previous album and the ideal song for them to come back to.

Welcome back guys!

The #Opening Ceremony musical talents including @TDCinemaClub ‘s Alex Trimble could chart…

Caliban’s Dream  was the music for that magical moment when the London 2012 games opened this week, and the Olympic Flame lit.

Seems everyone is reliving that moment as this track is set for a top ten place in this week’s chart!

And who could say that the Arctic Monkey’s rendition of Come Together was magical! It did them justice and nobody other than the Beatles themselves could have done it any better, What a tribute! This Too looks set to chart this Sunday

This weeks #FeaturedFollower is Two Trees

They have discovered us, and god are we pleased they did! In what could be our favourite #FeaturedFollower I began work on our Facebook page cover photo to feature them instantly upon hearing them, knowing they’re something special and the same goes to anyone, the first few lines of one of the Sweedish Duo’s beautiful songs and you know this is something special.

They’re two voices that compliment each other beautifully. Harmonies to bring a smile to anyone’s day! 

With a rise in popularity for acoustic artists, such as Fleet Foxes and Mumford and Sons, fans of these are in for a treat upon in hearing Two Trees.

Biffy Clyro - Stingin’ Belle NEW SINGLE

Played for the first time just two days ago, this latest Biffy Single shows a great progression from Only Revolutions, it’s like you could listen to their last album and know this was built upon top of it, and why reinvent the game when Biffy  are winning and just need to make that next move! Perfect!
