Willy Wonka had his 'little helpers' and I've got mine. Willy had his Oompa Loompas, I've got my first mate Darren 'Starbuck' Jones and my Bury correspondent Jo 'Napoli' Adkin. Invaluable advisors both. I'm very grateful for their direction and support. And pleased to spread the word further.
Here's Jo's latest suggestion. Callum Easter an Edinburgh based maverick who she caught in his support slot for Nadine Shah few days ago. I've been listening through to his latest record Get Forever .... Delete Don't Want since. It's idiosyncratic stuff which shares some DNA with early Beck and early Baxter Dury I'd say.. I like it.
It's a protest record of the best sort. There's a lot to make a stand against these days. We appear to living through unhinged times. But there are also plenty of good times to be had here too. An eccentric and cherishable vision. Out now on Lost Map Records. Nice work Jo.
