Recently I chatted to Nath Smith, a Southampton/Bournemouth based rapper who has been climbing the ladder of music (and as we discovered, TV!) success since his debut track ‘Fly Away’ in 2019. Over the last few years, Nath has been featured on a charting compilation album and has absolutely smashed his recent spotify streams! Together,…
In August 2015 when One Direction was announced to go on hiatus indefinitely, it is not an exaggeration to say that millions of hearts were broken. I, for one, rejoiced in the news that the band that had defined all the lives of teenage friends and really drove me crazy as a result, was finally…

I feel like the post-COVID era has been full of accidents and injuries at gigs while people try and regain the spirit of the pre-COVID live scene. Not to say that these incidents weren’t happening before, but it seems as though the TikTok for you page is full of “omg look! This artist’s stopped because…

Moreso in recent years than ever, it is apparent that nostalgia is the king of entertainment. From movie reboots to some of the year’s biggest music hits sampling beloved classics, it goes without saying that the past remains somewhat of a comfort to people in this post-pandemic world.

Prolific British author J.B. Priestley’s farcical play kicks off when a group of old friends are interrupted during their silver anniversary by the abrupt discovery that they are, in fact, not actually legally married.

I often get a feeling of dread watching comics; Will their jokes land? Who will be the first to say c***?…

When it comes to Indie music, there’s not quite an Indie band like the Isle of Wight five piece masterpiece, Plastic Mermaids. The way that they orchestrate their instruments, collaboratively perform together, has never made me feel so eccentric and alive at a live performance ever. Supporting act for the night was Isle of Wights…

I’ve never witnessed a crowd as crazy as Aitch’s fans. Hearing screams, predominantly the crowd being females, was unheard of. On Thursday night, 20th October 2022, the anticipation of waiting for Aitch to show up on stage was incredibly difficult for the fans, holding back their excitement, especially for the girls. The O2 academy was…

With three top 10 albums under their belt, The Amazons are hardly a little-known band. They launched into their UK tour How Will I Know If Heaven Will Find Me at the beginning of October and I managed to catch frontman Matt Thomson and guitarist Chris Alderton at their Southampton concert to chat about their new…
