It’s only rock n roll … well an AC/DC cover … but I like it.

This week we have three more great new entries into our RaW Sounds Today playlist and at the top of the tree is one of our favourite bands, Third Lung. Once again, they are innovating by putting their stamp on a familiar tune.

You’ll love it, and every one of the acts in this week’s chart. We have 10 great tracks for your aural pleasure, and it’s available for free on Spotify. Our playlist is a mixture that will help you discover something new.

To hear this week’s selection, simply head to https://bit.ly/rawsoundstodayand enjoy the music.

There is also a Facebook page and group chat that bands and music fans can tap into. You can search for RaW Sounds Today and it will come up.

Third Lung – It’s a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock ‘N ’Roll)

They topped our Top 20 of 2022 and now Third Lung release their first single since signing to the legendary Marquee Records label. What a surprise it is too.

We weren’t expecting a cover and certainly not an AC/DC cover.

However, it’s a wonderful surprise as the band have certainly put their stamp on the song with a brilliantly unique version.

Following a mellow start with a wonderful vocal performance from Tom Farrelly, the band builds to a powerful ending which includes brilliant guitar playing from Cams Jurasek.

It may be a long way to the top but Third Lung are certainly making that climb – http://thirdlungband.com/
