      Hi
      Always fun to recommend music and bearing in mind the musical sensibilities of folk likely to be on here…my suggestion for today (one per day sounds about right so not swamped)….let me know your current ear worms

      Been listening to The Lemon Twigs recently and this is a great live version of the B-side of their recent single “I’ve Got A Broken Heart” live at the Bowery Ballroom, NY
      V much channelling The Monkees IMHO

      Friday (I’m Gonna Love You)

      Great band. I met them coming out of the cinema in New York last year. We had been to see “ One to One: John & Yoko “ A must see. Doc.

      Recently completely obsessed with Hold On, Hold On by Neko Case. Obviously there’s a Travis connection on the wonderful Sing Me to Sleep from Wreckorder

      Went to see Dodgy the other week. They’re on top form these days. Summer Forever from their new album is getting a lot of play at the moment.

      Not through choice, but the Gabbys Dollhouse soundtrack has been getting some serious air time recently.
      I’m really into ‘Stickin’ with you’ just now. Which I genuinely think is one of the best lyrics about friendship!

      https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KP9OdGiGP1U&list=RDKP9OdGiGP1U&start_radio=1&pp=ygUjZ2FiYnkncyBkb2xsaG91c2Ugc3RpY2tpbmcgd2l0aCB5b3WgBwE%3D&ra=m

      You’ll be the glitter, and I’ll be the glue.

      Nice! Love me some twigs.
      I’m currently obsessed with “Shipwrecked mariner” by Judy Collins. Beautiful songwriting and as always a beautiful voice.

      I’ve been Listening to a lot of twenty-one Pilots recently.

      I know they are a bit mainstream right now, But I love them. Tyler Joseph’s creativity always leaves me speechless.

      I could really get deep into all the reasons I think everyone should give them a try, and the lore they took ten years to build, but It would take all day and it would leave everyone wondering if I am okay. haha! So I won’t get into it. Just know, if you have never listened to them, they are worth your time

      I’ve been enjoying Mary Janes by Maisie Peters, don’t know much about her but it’s got a great lyric. And then found an old song by a band Called Frog called God Loved a Woman, honestly it is a sublime track, the guitar is beautiful, the vocal is vulnerable, the lyric is poetry, check it out!!!!

      I’ve recently discovered Myles Kennedy’s voice. His work with ex Creed members under the name of Alter Bridge is really good. The song “Watch over you” is absolutely beautiful. On stage when Myles and Mark Tremonti play together, those guitars are on fire 🔥 (check out “Blackbird” live at the Royal Albert Hall with the Parallax orchestra)

      I’ll be checking out all of these suggestions. alan c – yes I know this performance! Love the guitar at 1 minute. Seems ripe for a Travis cover, come on lads!

      I’m loving a band called Kingfishr from Ireland, discovered them thanks to Killeagh, a song about a GAA club in Cork (my family are from Cork, so feels even more special), but my song of the day choice is their latest release, The Sun Will Never Settle, which is just so beautiful and I cannot get out of my head or stop playing.

      Quite a different vibe but I just discovered a lady Artist called Annette Peacock – Zany stuff – she was into synth/vocal/ambient and sang with some different artists also – allegedly Bowie was a fan.

      Not a new band and sounds very different from Travis but I really love Nine Inch Nails, their last tour was insane !
      One of their best record is, to me Anyways, The Fragile but they are all epic!

      I’ve been obsessed with the last Fontaines DC album, I’ve especially connected with ‘Favorite’ and ‘Modern World’, but the whole album is just all so good!

      Listening to alot of Phil Collins era of Genesis. Invisible Touch and Duke has a lot of play at the moment from me, both really good and fun to listen to.

      Domino (pt 1 & 2), Land of Confusion, Home by the Sea, Misunderstanding all great songs.

      I am absolutely in love with Sierra Ferrell and her latest album Trail of Flowers. I was introduced to her when she appeared on SNL with Mumford and Sons and haven’t been able to stop listening to this album. Top track for me right now is called Fox Hunt.

      Not so familiar with The Lemon Twigs but the last couple of singles from The Lemonheads were great! Deep End and In the Margin worth checking out 🙂

      Ok another new one from a kids TV show again!
      Walter Martin – let the tall ships sail
      https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=E2CWTFb_7A4&list=RDE2CWTFb_7A4&start_radio=1&pp=ygUXbGV0IHRoZSB0YWxsIHNoaXBzIHNhaWygBwE%3D&ra=m

      I found my little girl singing along to it as it’s featured in the TV series Hilda. Hilda is a lovely little show, based on a series of books that are also excellent. Hilda has been great for my girl being able to relate to, as Hilda shares a lot of neuro divergent traits.

      Anyway, finding myself exploring more of Walter Martins stuff as it bridges that kids into adults space. And Let the tall ships sail is a bop.

      I’ve recently rediscovered some old songs, ones that I loved years ago and then they’ve cropped up again on my playlists and it’s made me pause and remember how great they are.
      Elbow – My trouble
      Charlie Winston – Boxes
      Scott Matthews – Elusive
      Jack Johnson – Go on and Constellations
      Also read some Tom Petty interviews and its reaffirmed my love of the Traveling Wilburys, mother of all super groups
