LIVE: Jaret Reddick / The Lounge Kittens @ Islington Assembly Hall, London

Jaret Reddick has his finger in many a pop punk pie. Whether it’s fronting cheerfully tongue in cheek nostalgia favourites Bowling For Soup, hosting a film review podcast or getting animated (literally) on Phineas and Ferb, he’s certainly not adverse to doing something different.

LIVE: Life Of Agony / Aaron Buchanan and The Cult Classics @ Electric Ballroom, London

Situated underneath Waterloo station, House Of Vans is a skatepark by day and a vibrant music venue by night. As you walk past various ramps to get to the main room, the atmosphere is far more relaxed, compared to the usual hustle and bustle of Saturday night shows in

LIVE: Charly Bliss / Whenyoung @ The Old Blue Last, London

Any observant music fan would predict Charly Bliss’ fizzy pop rock to pull in a herd of pastel grunge kids with candy floss hair and eternal smiles. But as Vice-owned hot spot The Old Blue Last fills to bursting point for the band’s live London debut, that prediction couldn’t

LIVE: Reading Festival 2017 – Sunday

A cursory glance at the Reading and Leeds line up for this all confirmed what many have been saying for years – this is not the rock lead festival we once all knew. Musically diverse is one way of putting it but actually the Bank Holiday weekender – an
