As most of you know, iTunes and the Camden Roundhouse put on a bunch of free gigs with tickets drawn via random lottery to a few thousand lucky winners. Therefore, when I won tickets to this one, I thought I’d hit the jackpot. Having seen the legendary Manics performing live at a semi-secret gig last October, I knew I was in for a treat. Sadly, it just fell short of being one, but for a free gig, I guess I can’t complain.

Following in the footsteps of Northern Soul, The Verve and, uh, Starsailor, indie rock quartet The Suzukis are pressing forward to carry Wigan’s music scene further into the new decade. After a few singles, a handful of well-received live shows and an increasingly loud buzz, which has been surrounding the band like a swarm of flies in recent months, The Suzukis are finally here with their eponymous debut album. Unlike their Wigan predecessors though, these four young hopefuls have been turning everything up, putting the edge back on and generally shrugging their shoulders at anyone that likes things a bit too nice. Yes, The Suzukis are here and they mean business.

While Amy Winehouse continues to keep us in suspense during her prolonged absence, the path remains relatively clear for a contender to the contemporary soul music crown. Although Adele is sitting comfortably ahead of the game as the current queen of British soul, Nottingham’s Liam Bailey is stepping in to take his position as a suitable king. Not in a literal sense, of course, but as you will discover upon first listen of his new EP ‘It’s Not the Same’, Bailey provides more than enough reason to stand out amongst the handful of good male soul singers around at the moment.

There are three things that keep Swedish DJ Basshunter sane: video games, women and alcohol. That's what he told the crowd at his York University show, anyway - and that wasn't even close to the oddest thing he discussed with us during our backstage interview.
