I have to admit to never hearing of Dublin based band ‘Kodaline’ before I heard their new single ‘Love Like This’ The members are singer Stephen Garrigan and guitarist Mark Prendergast who were friends at school - later to be joined by drummer Vinny May Jr and bassist Jason Boland. The band are going to be playing T In The Park and Latitude Festival amongst others to promote their new […]

You could easily place this album in […]

‘Feel It All’ is the first track to be taken from KT Tunstall’s new album ‘Invisible Empire / Crescent Moon’ the follow up to 2010’s ‘Tiger Suit’ the album was recorded in two parts, explaining the two titles.
