Music Reviews - Kill Surf City By Michelle Dee
	The fresh five-piece from Hull have fast become the band name to drop in any discerning musos discourse. Recent months has seen them leapfrogging the opposition and quickly reaching and surpassing a few significant milestones.

	Friday night in the icy rain I flagged down a cab to town. My preferred late night spot tonight was Rhythm Room on Baker Street for a heady night of uplifting beats.

Music Reviews - Scarborough Beached Festival 2005 Sunday By Michelle Dee Photos by Roland Standaert and Michelle Dee
	Sand beneath my feet, sounds of activity on the stage, blue skies overhead, sun blazing: a strange but rather pleasant surrounding for a gig. Amaya Huntly and Jon Neeves had the unenviable task to open the show on Sunday. An acoustician and Keyboard duo; the highlight of their set was the Credence Clearwater Revival cover where they proved with a strong number they can do a Read more...
