    Brinsley Schwarz

    Brinsley Schwarz in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://brinsleyschwarz.bandcamp.com/album/shouting-at-the-moon https://brinsleyschwarz.bandcamp.com/album/tangled https://unexpectedcd.bandcamp.com/album/unexpected   Legendary British musician and songwriter Brinsley Schwarz returns with a new solo album this Autumn.Shouting At The Moon represents the third part of a trilogy begun with his debut solo release Unexpected in 2016 followed by Tangled, his first album for Fretsore Records in 2021.Founder of the 70spub-rock icons (if icons is not too strong a word!) of the same name, and subsequently Graham Parker and The Rumour, Brinsley’s passion for writing and recording reignited in recent years following two albums and tours with that band, as well as duo shows with Parker, resulting in Unexpected. The gestation period for the songs on Shouting At The Moon goes back even further.“I wrote ‘The Chance’, ‘Nothing Is What It Seems’ and ‘What In The World’ sometime between the late 1990s and early 2005,”he explains. “‘Hard To Change’ and ‘It’s Been A Long Year’ were written during 2024 and 2025 and recorded during that time. So you can see a big spread in time of writing and recording;some songs were recorded and were intended for my first solo album. But we had a surplus of recorded tracks and so we could pick tracks based on how the songs seemed to gel together as an entity, as an album.”As with Tangled, Brinsley pays tribute to his friend with a well-chosen cover: “Graham Parker wrote ‘Watch The Moon Come Down’ in the late1970s. One of my favourite GP songs.I loved rearranging and recording it.” Key to this revived activity has been producer, engineer and keyboard-player James Hallawell another Parker collaborator, also noted for his work with the likes of The Waterboys and Jackie Leven. “He helped me record my first album Unexpected,”says Brinsley. “We just carried on recording.”

    Bill Dickson - Rousers

    Bill Dickson in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://rousers.bandcamp.com/album/1979-sire-session Inspired by the New York Dolls, Ramones and such immortal ‘50s rockers as twangy guitar hero Duane Eddy, the Rousers were woefully under-documented in their prime. A few major labels sniffed around, including RCA and Warner Bros. subdi­vision Sire. But no one committed them to vinyl until Reynolds issued their “Party Boy” b/w “Don’t Let The Band Stop Playing” 45 (produced by Wayne Kramer of the MC5) via Jimboco in 1981.  Reynolds corrects this oversight today with the release of the demos that the original Rousers lineup—vocalist Jeff Buck­land, rhythm guitarist Bill Dickson, bassist John Hannah, lead guitarist Tom Milmore, and drummer Jerid O'Connell—cut for Sire in the label’s basement studio on New York’s Upper West Side in 1979.  Tracked to tape under the sharp ear of Ed Stasium, hot off sessions with the Ramones and Talking Heads, the 1979 Sire demos are raw, radiant, and long overdue for release. They captured the Rousers in full dragstrip ignition mode: dueling Gibson guitars plugged into Fender amps for maximum punk twang, hiccupping Elvis/Buddy Holly vocal inflections, and a rhythm section built for backseat makeouts and beer-splashed dance floors.  With nods to Duane Eddy (“Ram Rod,” “Movin’ N Groovin’”), the sweat-soaked charm of originals like “Be My Girl” and “Product of the USA,” and a rip-it-up cover of Wilson Pickett’s “If You Need Me,” Rousers 1979 Sire Session is the missing chapter of NYC punk’s golden age, finally pressed to wax.  Never before released, the tapes sat shelved in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s Sire archives for decades, digitized and re­stored in 2024. Mixing duties were split between Bob Stander (Parchessi Studio) and Ed Stasium himself, ensuring pe­riod-authentic crunch meets modern punch. The result is 13 tracks of grease-slicked melody and garage-pop swing, crowned by the kinetic rave-up “Bumblebee Rock” and the shoulda-been-hits “Lonely Summer” and “Be My Girl”—a song that splits the difference between Tommy James stomp and Marshall Crenshaw shimmer.

    The Lovely Basement - Katie Scaife & Kevin Bache

    Katie Scaife & Kevin Bache in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://thelovelybasement.bandcamp.com/ https://www.facebook.com/TheLovelyBasement/ The Lovely Basement are Katie Scaife, Kevin Bache, Steve Dew and Paul Waterworth. The band are based in Bristol, UK. The idea back in 2018 was to combine the feel of the Velvet Underground with a hint of the twang of early country music. In the words of the band “we failed, but liked the sound of the failure. Slow, driving and dreamy by turns, we anchor our songs in the tried-and-true combo of two guitars, bass, drums and fine harmonies to float our passing thoughts on class, death, the pull of ennui, the push of irritation, existential OCD and taking it easy.” First two albums (Just Because You Can and the eponymously-titled second album) were released on Breaking Down Recordings, a Bristol collective label. Albums that have received very good reviews in magazines and independent radio stations in Europe, America, Australia and New Zealand. Lazy Travellers is another wonderful album by The Lovely Basement. Ten new songs with echoes of The Velvet Underground, The Clientele, Luna or Cowboy Junkies.

    Anne Clark

    Anne Clark in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.anneclarkofficial.com/ https://anneclarkofficial.bandcamp.com/ English poet, singer and songwriter. Her first album, The Sitting Room, was released in 1982, and she has released over a dozen albums since then. Her poetry work with experimental musicians occupies a region bounded roughly by electronic, dance (techno applies on occasion) and possibly avant-garde genres, with varying hard as well as romantic and orchestral styles. Clark is mainly a spoken word artist. Many of her lyrics deal critically with the imperfections of humanity, everyday life, and politics. Especially in her early works she created a gloomy, melancholy atmosphere bordering on weltschmerz. She has been considered one of the pioneers in the spoken-word music genre, as well as being acclaimed for her synth-pop and new wave music, especially across Europe.

    Thomas Leer

    Thomas Leer in conversation with David Eastaugh  http://thomasleer.co.uk/ Leer played in several local experimental pop groups in the early to mid-1970s, moving to London when the punk rock scene was at its height. He formed the punk band Pressure, but by 1978 had moved on to music influenced by synthpop and Krautrock bands such as Can. That year, he self-financed his debut single, "Private Plane". Although it was recorded in his own flat and was only issued in 650 copies on his own label, it gained significant attention, with NME naming it "Single of the Week". In 1979, he released the album The Bridge in collaboration with Robert Rental. In 1981, he signed to Cherry Red, his first release for the label being the 4 Movements EP. After two further releases on the label, he was signed by Arista Records, releasing three further singles and his debut full-length solo album, The Scale of Ten in late 1985.
