What have we been up to at Audley Music?

Where have we been and who have we been listening to, at Audley Music?
Highlight of the month was sitting in on Huw Stephen's show on OneMusic for Radio 1 last Tuesday. Thanks to Huw and Louise and Princess Amy. Fascinating stuff and very good tunes, of course.
Plenty of activity on Myspace - some quality friends added and very good new music.
Check out Belisha and some cajun neighbours of mine from the deepest bayous of Stoke-on-Trent, Elvis Fontenot and the Sugar Bees. Get to their gigs if you can. they seem like a riot!
Also have a listen to an amzing singer/songwriter who deserves a lot of attention, Tricia McTeague. Why ain't we hearing the likes of Bob Harris playing her excellent stuff?
Gigs?
Stan went along to the Sugar Mill in Stoke to hear StellarStar on Saturday and hasn't stopped raving about them yet.

Now for some plugs!

Peakz start their live gigs this week kicking off at the Tyn-y-Coed in Capel Curig on Thursday 2nd March. The royal progress continues to the awesome Clwb Ifor Bach in Cardiff on Saturday 4th March.
Tuesday 7th sees 'em at the Flapper & Firkin in Birmingham, and the next day, Wednesday 8th March Upstairs at the Garage in London.
Peakz were featured on Kerrang radio last Sunday night and on Huw and Bethan's Radio 1 Wales last Thursday where Rich demanded that Huw 'Play my song, dammit!'
Check out the website www.audleymusic.co.uk for more details and to get some useful samples for download.

Juanita Family & Friends are coming to UK to do a session for OneMusic on the Beeb on May 3rd and are looking for gigs in England, Ireland, and Wales around that date, preferably after.
Listen to the tunes at their site and see why you've gotta hear 'em, see 'em, book 'em for a gig.

Radio 1's One Music and Huw Stephens

Wow!
Tuesday 21st February, I got an invite from Huw Stephens to sit in on the OneMusic show from 2300-0100.
It was a brilliant show and very interesting to see how the show was produced and broadcast. There was some really cool music played - if you missed it catch it again on the net using the BBC Play Again feature.

Peakz got their song Freeway in Texas played on Kerrang Radio's unsigned band show tonight Sunday 12th Feb but they were in an almighty rush towards the end of the show and didn't give out any details of the band - gigs or website or owt.
