One of the best small venues of all time was no doubt The Cockpit in Leeds which tragically closed last year. The only band I ever had the pleasure of seeing there were Natives on their Indoor War run of dates some years ago. With a change in sound that has seen the band embark […]

H2N Singles – Able’s Army – Astronaut
Yesterday two Huddersfield giants released new singles, Palmes with Tourism and today’s feature is the awesome lads from Able’s Army with Astronaut. Up until now, much of what we’ve heard from the band has been vocally dominated by James but anyone who has seen them live will know their USP is the fact they ultimately […]
At Live at Leeds back in April I had the honour of interviewing the legendary Tom Hingley of the Inspiral Carpets. Coming up this Thursday is Tom’s gig with the Kar-pets celebrating the anniversary of “Return of the Goldfish” at Belgrave which we urge everybody to get to! 25th Anniversary of the record, thinking back […]
H2N Singles – Palmes – Tourism
Palmes are back with a brand new single following on from El Capitano back in March. We’ve followed this band (quite literally at times) for a while now and are really excited for their future. Tourism is their new track that once again builds on their last release and is currently sat in our Top […]
Hunter and the Bear have been a band H2N have been closely following for the last 12 months following the release of Renegade in 2016. When that was released and closely followed up by Oh Daisy, we knew the band were special and on to a winning formula with their writing. On May 13th the […]

Walking into the Wardrobe underground room all that could be seen were smiles, flowing alcohol and friendly conversations. Billy brings a warmth wherever […]
In Conversation With..Jordan Allen
At Live at Leeds at the end of last month we had the genuine honour of interviewing one of the highlight artists of the day Jordan Allen. After the release of 110 Ways to Make Things Better we’ve been huge fans of Jordan and his band and could not miss the opportunity to have a chat before they’re […]
H2N Singles – M I S F I R E S
What a rollercoaster few months it’s been since the release of Come on Over, which we reviewed back in February, for M I S F I R E S. After supporting The Sherlocks on tour and playing their biggest show to date with The Hunna, the band are going from strength to strength. Today they […]
H2N Single Review – The Jackobins
Since we first saw The Jackobins explode onto our radar at Y Not Festival last year the band have been hard at work recording their latest single “Nightfire” released today (5th May) to incredible reviews. After making H2N Top 40 of 2016 with “Hasty” it’s certainly looking like we’ll be seeing the Jackobins in our Top 40 […]
