WE LOVE seeing bands grow and develop and among the three new entries in this week’s collection are bands at different stages of their musical journeys.

Rila’s Edge are fresh off a barnstroming night in Wokingham, while Spacehopper’s latest track celebrates their 10th anniversary.

It’s a great listen – tune in for free on Spotify. It’s a mixture that will help you discover something new.

Rila’s Edge – Share the Night

What a gig by this band at The Gig House in Wokingham last week.

The venue was packed with a huge crowd enthusiastically appreciating an exciting set by a band who is clearly gaining in popularity and ability.

The progress of Rila’s Edge, since we saw them last year, is quite remarkable and is reflected in the quality of their last two singles, Someone New and this new one, Share the Night.

Indie rock as it should be with strong melody, good musicianship and powerful vocals – https://www.rilasedge.com/

Spacehopper – Pure Essence

Ten years ago, on March 17 2013, Spacehopper released their first single, Sounds and Colours, on our Magick Eye Records label and it went high in the Dance Charts.

To celebrate a decade since that release, the trance and dub outfit have just released this new uplifting single and are planning live appearances at clubs and festivals throughout the country.

With their colourful fun style, their trance and dub sounds and tracks as good as this one they always get everyone dancing – https://www.spacehoppermusic.com/

Steve Anderson & Chris York – Our Man from France

Recently we featured a song from the wonderful tribute album to our friend and guitarist Eric Bouillette, who passed away last year.

The album is Songs for an Angel Vol 1, and the song was by BDD, the alter ego of Andy Rowe who played with Eric in The Room.

Steve Anderson and Chris York are also members of The Room and they too created a song for the album. It’s another beautiful moving song – https://www.ftf-music.com/de/tributetoericbouillette/tributetoericbouillette.htm

Spriggan Mist – Resurrection

They have just released this new single, Resurrection and, in April, Spriggan Mist will be live in Lincoln on the 1 and, not too far away, on the 22 at a double header with Kindred Spirit at Hampton Hub Club – https://www.sprigganmist.com/

This new blues rock single was released recently to coincide with International Women’s Day – https://www.selinaandthehowlindogs.com/
