04Playlist Notes

What was the first song you played on repeat?
The Jam 'David Watts'

Dot to Dot Artists Playlist

Help Me On My Way - Ardyn 
Not necessarily my kind of thing but could easily take the charts by storm - if it came on the radio I would def keep on listening.

Don't Forget About Me - Cloves 
Now this is my kind of thing. Reminded me of Cat Power, one of my favourite singers. I would def buy an album.

Drop - Estrons
Frenetic, exciting and went from 0-60 really quickly - very likeable.

This Ain't Heaven - Georgie 
Went down really well with the audience which is a really good sign. I need to hear a couple more songs, but what I did hear, I enjoyed.

Fero - Eyre Llew 
Soundscapey, Radioheady, bit of shoegaze.

Sleep Talk - Diet Cig 
Love these - the best thing about bands being immediately economical. Really grabs you, takes you for a run around the park, then drops you off in your own garden.
