Welcome back to the Real Gone Singles Bar, the place where we explore some of the more interesting individual tracks that have landed in our inbox over the previous couple of weeks. This time out, we bring you a near perfect piece of acid jazz, the return of an emerging singer songwriter, some retro rock from Ireland, a familiar voice from the US punk scene with a great side-project, and more besides… As always, we hope you find something new to enjoy!

US punks Swingin’ Utters are heading to Europe at the end of February for a run of dates promoting their 2014 LP ‘Fistful of Hollow’. Support is supplied by punk pop band ToyGuitar whose self-titled EP was released via Adeline Records in 2013.
US punks Swingin’ Utters will be back in the UK in March for a short run of dates. All confirmed shows are listed below and are part of the promotion for their new studio LP ‘Fistful Of Hollow’, released via Fat Wreck Chords in November 2014.
To coincide with the release of their new album, punk stalwarts Lagwagon head out for a US/Canadian tour in November, with support from Swingin’ Utters and This Legend.
All confirmed dates are listed below. Lagwagon release ‘Hang On’ via Fat Wreck Chords on October 28th.
In February/March 2014, punk supergroup Me First & The Gimme Gimmes (featuring Lagwagon’s Dave Raun and ex-Swingin’ Utters bass man Spike Slawson) will be returning to Europe for a short run of dates, as seen below. As with previous Gimmes outings, it is unlikely that NOFX head honcho Fat Mike will make the trip due to record label commitments.
