Great new music from independent labels and artists all around the world

Another packed show. This week, with something of an acoustic tendency. Summer still hasn’t established but wrap up warm and it’s still pretty good on the Suffolk coast. This week, looking across the mouth of the River Deben from Felixstowe Ferry.Sig tune: Happy – Jimmie Bratcher (Missouri, USA) www.jimmiebratcher.com/Mind over Maria – Soundside (Long Island,…

Serious clouds around the barn this afternoon. The summer seems to be a write-off. We had half an inch of rain in a single shower this morning. Still, so much great, great music for you – all in just one rather longer show.Daisies – Sick of Sarah (California, USA)Sick of Sarah began in Minneapolis, MN…

Music from Brighton here in the UK, California, Niort in France, Norway, Poland, Philadelphia and New York … I thought, then a very late change to the running order (during the show) made a complete mess of my predictions! Been prepping the show early this week knowing that today was going to be a high…

Music from The USA, Russia, Trinidad, Cardiff and Saarfen this week as your genial host Peter Clitheroe scours the world’s finest sources to bring musical delights for your delectation.

Suddenly it is hazy mid-summer complete with flies and sweaty heat. Whatever happened to those lovely warm, fresh air days of early summer – oh yes, that’s right. It rained. However, the moon rising from the sea at Aldeburgh was pretty impressive. Diagnóstico Canalla – Diagnóstico Canalla (Barcelona, Spain)From their album "LA ESTACIÓN DE LAS…

A focus on some fine acoustic music (along with some great electric rock) this week as an equipment failure and lots of changes in the set-up create a rather different sound, I think. One of the most powerful rainbows I’ve seen over the house last night – when there was sun as well as rain.…

A rather/even more quirky selection than usual this week. I’ve been exploring a few genres that I’m not really that familiar with. Really listening opens up whole new landscapes of music to explore.

A frantic week since … er… last week’s show with the summer Podcrawl in London on Friday, being social at the weekend and a crazy but necessary trip to Glasgow (pictured) yesterday, it’s no wonder that I feel a bit more "odd" than usual. Glasgow seemed to me to be changing … into  a showcase…
