Never work with children, animals or musicians they say. The latest edition of " Listen To This " has been in the pipeline so long one of the bands have split up! Apparently touring and making fantastic music is more important than writing for random music blogs... some people just don't have their priorities right!! (Only joking, thanks go to both bands for taking part). Music Like Dirt is pleased to have two of its most blogged about bands taking part in " Listen To This [...]

All Smiles is the solo debut of the multi-talented Jim Fairchild, well known in the music world [...]
Citizen Helene "'Til Tomorrow" - It's only one guitar and one voice overdubbed into a gorgeous harmony, but it's enough to build this perfect image in my mind.
