Jonny Walker, This Is Not Me. E.P. Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

There is an element of excitement, a shadow of lingering hopefulness that pervades the listener’s expectations when they hear a new artist for the first time. It can go disastrously wrong and the person who has invested their time and money may feel bitter about it for a while and then all things being equal move on to the next hopeful batch. There of course are the moments when an E.P. or an album just grabs them in a very unexpected and simple way, the joy of hearing something new is what makes it all worth-while.

The Fifth Movement, A Roll Of The Dice. E.P. Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

As the Kevin Critchley Outfit they were brutally good, interesting and gave one excellent show after another As The Fifth Movement, the same burning desire to bring out some of the most interesting music still rings true, however there seems to be an edge, a sympathetic ruthlessness, that pervades across the E.P., A Roll of the Dice, which just is outstandingly clever and musically satisfying.

Matt Swift, Lesson Over. E.P Review.

Originally published by L.S. Media. July 27th 2011.

You can sometimes have too much of a good thing, thankfully music isn’t one of them. Any musician, regardless of age or genre that grabs your attention should be savoured and enjoyed for however long they produce great songs and inspire you to be a better person.

Matt Swift’s Lesson Over EP is a collection of songs that quite frankly are amongst the best that you will get to hear this year and with the enormously talented Barry Briercliffe in the producer’s chair, Matt has delivered a set of tunes that really stand out and capture the imagination.

L.S. Media Rating ****

For those that may have worried about the future of the band The Floe when the foursome went their separate ways, don’t worry, the two remaining members of the harmonious group, Sarah Springett and Liz Townsend, have regrouped, re-energised and gone back into the studio to record a stunning and sensual new E.P. The aptly named Simple Pleasures captures the two talented women at their very best and at their most dedicated.

All We Are, We Hunt. E.P. Review.

Originally published by L.S. Media. April 30th 2012.

L.S. Media Rating *****

All We Are…are simply phenomenal and this comes across in the new E.P. We Hunt which was launched at the unlikely setting of St. Brides Church in Liverpool. Accompanied by an extremely good video for the song Trainspotting which delves into the world of 1940’s Film Noir, We Hunt is an E.P. that deserves nothing but the highest praise.
