Ralph's Life
If you're looking for a band that profess to play a mish mash of all the influences they love that'll get your feet tapping and getting up and dancing (even if it is like your drunk uncle at a wedding) then Scottish band Drunk Mule are the very ones for you. [...]

Randolph's Leap First thing tomorrow morning I'll be hauling myself out of bed an ungodly hour to head up to my first T in the Park for five years. The last time I went, I came back engaged - I've always been classy. This time round I'll be on my best behaviour as I am acting as tour manager (ie driving the van) for Randolph's Leap, as they will be opening the T Break Stage at 12pm on the Saturday. If you're going to be be there for the gates opening, make sure you pop your head [...]

Jo Schornikow I'll warn you now, I am going to be mentioning Jo Schornikow from the Shivers a lot over the next month or so. In case you somehow missed the memo, she's going to be touring the UK next month with Scott Rudd, and I'm putting on her Glasgow date featuring a bill which will also include Mitchell Museum. In case you haven't already heard any of Jo's music, then you're in luck as there is a free download of her song 'Bird's Nest' up for grabs on SoundCloud . Alternatively, if you [...]

Happy Particles Having made it down to the final ten in this years SAY Awards, Happy Particles have decided to give us a wee teaser as to how the follow up record might sounds. They've posted up a free download of the very first demo from the new record that they are just beginning to write, called ' Far Enough Inside '.

The Pictish Trail A normal Thursday night for me will be spent sitting in front of my laptop cobbling together that weeks Friday Freebies, so quite often I find myself getting in a bit of a spin when I have plans for that night. Tonight is one of the those nights, as I am off to the CCA to catch The Pictish Trail and Kid Canaveral. Which in a roundabout way brings me to my first freebie which comes from the aforementioned Pictish Trail who is offering a free download of a remix of his new song 'Of [...]

Kowalskiy The trouble with writing these Friday Freebies on a Thursday night is that quite often someone posts a cracking free download on the Friday and I don't have time to update the post. This happened last week when my fellow blogger, Kowalskiy posted up his latest free monthly EP, his latest offering was possibly his best to date (do I say that every month?) including tracks from Blue Sky Archives, This Silent Forest, The Sea Kings, The Spook School and my current favourite thing ever - Behold, the Old Bear (who are also coincidentally playing [...]

French Wives Exciting times lay ahead for Glasgow folk-pop outfit, French Wives, in just a matter of weeks time the five piece will be heading stateside to represent Scotland at this years SXSW, after which they'll be venturing north for Canadian Music Week. As if that wasn't exciting enough the band also have the release of their forthcoming debut album, ‘Dream of the Inbetween’ to look forward to. If their new single, Younger, is anything to go by then we should be in for a bit of a treat. The song is the second single to be taken [...]

Due to me being out last week catching the Twilight Sad, I didn't get a chance to draft up a Friday Freebies, boo me. The good news is that this week is double roll over, yay me! Randolph's Leap You might have noticed that I have been talking a lot about the forthcoming Randolph's Leap cassette album 'The Curse of the Haunted Headphones', and seeing as it comes out on Monday I will warn you that I am going to continue to bang on about it for the foreseeable future.

Invisibles On my hunt for freebies to share with you all I quite often find myself 'favouriting' tweets that mention free downloads from Scottish bands that might be worth checking out. Most of the time I tend to find something that I like or think's half decent, other times there's stuff that just that bad that I can't bring myself to write anything about it. So earlier in the week when I read about Invisibles, a collective conceived by JP Reid of Sucioperro and Marmaduke Duke fame, I did find myself pre-judging the songs. "They'll not be my [...]

Normally on a Saturday I like to post a cover version or two, but seeing as it's fast approaching Christmas Eve and I am sure most of you are starting to get into the festive spirit I thought it might be a fun idea to post up a few festive tunes. A couple of songs ended up turning into many many hours of searching through my music collection to bring you a whopping forty Christmas songs from an array of Scottish artists. I guess this is as good as a time as any to wish all of the folk that [...]

Id like to apologise in advance for the rushed nature of this weeks Freebies, too many Christmas nights out mean that I haven't had the chance to listen to everything this week. Still though there are some wee corkers in there, you'll just have to find them for yourself. Gargleblast Records In the spirit of all things Christmassy, Gargleblast Records have their very own advent calendar of free tunes to give away every day. So far they've posted up free tunes from the likes of De Rosa, to find out what todays freebie is [...]

we're only afraid of NYC I don't think that it's much of a secret round these parts that I'm a big fan of we're only afraid of NYC. Since the release of their debut EP, zero.one way back in 2009, they've continually gotten better in my eyes (and ears). Today sees the release of their new EP zero.four, which again sees the band take another massive step forward. Fuck knows how they're going to move upwards from this point, for now though I don't care as this EP's the dogs proverbials. Get in about it kiddie-winks, [...]

Thirty Pounds Of Bone Having tipped him as one of my ones to watch in 2011, I feel like I can't fully remember ever mentioning him ever again. My bad I know, to make up for it here's a free download of one of his gigs recorded in Café Galao, Stuttgart, Germany just a few days ago.

Giving your music away for free seems to be a bit of contentious issue these days, personally I think that in a few years time that we will be seeing a lot more bands going down that route. Drunk Mule are one of these artists that are willing to let folk hear their music for no financial reward, a bold move in my eyes. Having caught my attention with their album 'Crash Test Y'self ' which reminds me a bit of the Beta Band/Aliens, I liked their music so much that I decided to ask the band to answer [...]
