THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR #90

Posted on by

This week at the Singles Bar, we bring you a whole world of different sounds. You’ll find something with an orchestral heart, some adult singer-songwriter fare, an indie rock band experimenting with something almost prog-like, and some massive sounding synth based pop. There are a couple of big rock based tunes too, so it’s almost got all of Real Gone’s audience interests covered in eight well-chosen tracks. As alwoays, we hope you find something new to enjoy…

RODNEY CROMWELL – Exercise Class EP

Posted on by

Adam Cresswell first came to the attention of alternative music fans as a member of Saloon.
