Indiana

Looking for ways to breathe some life into drab and overcast days in their hometown of Watford, Indiana started writing passionate indie anthems for sunny days and rainy days alike. Indiana came into being by the random meeting of Barney and Dom at Keith Allens mobile karaoke at Glastonbury Festival – Barney had been impressively belting out songs a cappella; shortly after he joined the band. Indiana's sound is epic and melodious with quiet/loud dynamics - melodic indie meets post-rock. Big vocals, carefully crafted guitar melodies and a spectacular live sound. Their songwriting passion is for that which returns to indie's epic song writing heritage - the band's purpose being to take music back to when songs mattered more than haircuts - band of substance over style. Their time together has seen the band play for the BBC, national press, airplay on internet radio in UK and Australia, college radio in the US, festival appearances including one for the O2 mobile network

Monk's recordings still nurture and entertain countless jazz fans, and the clarity and directness of his conception makes him a wonderful “introductory" artist for newbies. Gigging ...

Wes Montgomery: In the Beginning

Read "In the Beginning" reviewed by Luca Canini


Anche i giganti hanno cominciato da piccoli. Lontani dai riflettori e dalle luci delle capitali del jazz, sui palchi più o meno scalcagnati di una città qualunque. Indianapolis, nel caso di Wes Montgomery. Prima della fama, prima di cambiare per sempre il concetto di sei corde applicato all'improvvisazione, è nel cuore del Midwest che il chitarrista ...
