Blog interview: Cable Street Collective
How did Cable Street Collective begin, who’s in the line up? Three of us (Fi, Ash and Tristan, on vox and guitars) went to Nottingham Uni together, and used to play the occasional open mic night.

Single Review: Bad Money “Tell Me”
To paraphrase the Spice Girls, 2 Become 4 as one of my favourite bands of 2020 Birmingham duo Bad Money add two more to their line up. “Tell Me” is such a great pop track. It’s got synth stabs, sitting comfortably with the signature guitars I came to love from “Ashes”, plus sampled and processed …
