It’s been a long while since City Mouse released their second EP back in 2011, but it has lost none of its punk-pop cool – especially if you’re a big fan of female fronted bands like Tilt.
While studio recording seems not to be a priority for the band, they’re still busy. Next month, they head out on a country-wide US tour. All dates are listed below. You can also stream the 2011 EP…
K7s are a new band based in Spain who really deliver when it comes to looking for that classic sounding punk pop hit. Their debut single ‘Running Back; mixes the pop hooks of ‘Dookie’ era Green Day with the drive of ‘Anthem For A New Tomorrow’ era Screeching Weasel.
If that style does it for you, then the K7s could well become an instant favourite. What’s more, you can download both tracks of their new digital single from Bandcamp for absolutely free. Just follow the Bandcamp widget.
“You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me”. It’s one of those songs that most people over a certain age know. Dusty Springfield’s aching ballad is considered a classic, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be re-interpreted.

After a five year recording break, ‘The Light’ marks the return of one of Greece’s most popular English speaking bands, Tango With Lions. With core sounds rooted within the early mid 90s, Tango With Lions are keeping the flame of European dreampop alive…or so it would seem if you were to only listen to the first few tracks of this 2018 comeback disc. ‘The Light’ presents lots of floaty, dreamy alternative sounds – ’tis true – but it ploughs deeper into bits of alt-folk than most dreampop acts would consider, or even dare.
As part of the ongoing promotion of her critically acclaimed 2017 EP ‘Shelter’, singer-songwriter Charlotte Carpenter takes her very personal sounds and style to mainland Europe in March.
