DEAR 2000 TREES

We’re only bloody taking over. Saturday at the Greehouse Stage with a load of bands inbetween. Yr Friends. (Lexi JoFo on his only solo festival performance of the year), Stagecoach, Gunning for Tamar, My First Tooth and The Attika State will all be performing beautiful stripped down melodic hits for your delectation and delight…

If you’re there, do come down, bring some beers and lets get raucous! It may be stripped back but this is still going to be a party… Oh, and if you don’t have tickets yet – head right on over here>>>>

Dear Brighton – you coming out Friday babez? (Till 6am)

May the 17th be with you or something. This one is GOING> TO> BE> HUGGGGGE. There will be jager-bombs a-plenty, befuddled bouncers struggling to cope with a bunch of crowd-surfing champs (you) and a line up that isn’t too bad either :-)  

Here’s a free download compilation to listen to them too if you like?: https://soundcloud.com/alcopop/sets/cheer-up-bradley-alcopop-vs

Things stir in the Gunning for Tamar camp

Rumbling…

Grumbling…

FUCKING AWESOME TRAILER COMES TUMBLING – check this out. The new EP is on its way yeah…

Gunning for Tamar release FRESH new free download single!

So they’ve been heralded by The NME, Rocksound, BBC Radio 1, XFM and Radio 6 in the last few weeks, and had a rather strong festival season. So the news that Gunning for Tamar were keen to make their new single a free download is rather swell. It was briefly available on gorgeous A2 screenprint but has swiftly sold out, but if you want to stream, listen, download for free (and share if you like)… Well… It’s all yours brothers and sisters. Or you can buy it for 79p, but that would be silly right?

Without further ado, here is the track – and if you like it, we’d really appreciate it if you told a pal, tweet the link or hell, just enjoy it yourself. That’s enough for us :-) I think it sounds a bit like Reuben too….

Like it yeah? Well NME were particularly complimentary about it last week, and some of our most favourite DJs, Huw Stephens, John Kennedy, Jen Long, Ally McCrae, Sam Fox and Chris Martin have allll been playing it too.

Here’s a picture of them at Truck Festival
