Sweet Honey In The Rock

Sweet Honey in the Rock is an all-woman, African-American a cappella ensemble that has been producing music for more than thirty years. Although the members of the group have changed over time, the music of Sweet Honey in the Rock has consistently combined contemporary rhythms and narratives with a musical style rooted in the gospel music, spirituals and hymns of the Black church. Sweet Honey in the Rock was founded in 1973 by Bernice Johnson Reagon who formed the group out of the strongest singers from a vocal workshop she was teaching with the D.

The Cinnamons

The Cinnamons equate to a fresh slant on the (phenomenal) pop-scene blossoming from Glasgow, Scotland.
Influences from The Pixies through 80's electronica - they manage to steer well clear of the well trod paths of Glasvegas/Franz Ferdinand/Simple Minds mindset - 'we want to rock stadiums' to produce a sound that is instant as it is unique as it is infectious. A truly talented band that I was fortunate enough to catch on their last tour - Lucasda Jan '09

Horsebeach

Horsebeach hail from Manchester, UK. Their debut self titled single contains two contrasting tracks that give you a steady introduction to their sound. 'Even' is a darker story of hope and a re occurring dream of loss that is accompanied by a jangly, dreamy overtone. Where 'You Know' is a carefree lo-fi pop gem with a message of youth and love. Horsebeach influences contain Shimmering Stars, Wild Nothing and all things surf.
