The Brakes, well worth a lsiten, ex members of Electric Soft Parade who were brill anyway and British Sea Power, Saw the Charlatans last week and they were outstanding. more…
Ummmm not sure the violin is quite what you think, the guitarist has a knack of making his violin sounds off the old strat, very very clever, reminded me of the late great Stewart Adamson playing bagpipes with his guitar and Jake Burns playing Rule Brittanis during Fly the Flag.
Larrikin Love - another fantastic band, love the violin. I've not heard of the other ones you mention there but will seek them out. I think we are in a golden era of great music, so many good bands so little time!

The Rifles are superb, saw them a few weeks back just before the album was released and well impressed.
The album is another thumbs up as is the new Larrikin Love or rather the first Larrikin Love album.
Look out for Bromheads Jacket, Good Books and the excellent Dustins Bar Mitzvah,
Cheerybye home time now. < more…

The Rifles album (8 out of 10) is well worth a listen, and also Midlake (9 out of 10)? more…
