An Interview With... Nai Harvest

It's no secret that two piece punk band Nai Harvest are about to have a great 2015. Their unique sound is creating a following for them in the UK and they can only grow from here.

With their debut album set to be released this year, we expect they will be playing a lot of shows and a lot of festivals. We caught up with the band on at their first show of 2015 in Norwich. Check out the video below:

Daily Download... Middle Distance - Same Time Next Week

Bucks bred band Middle Distance have supplied another offering for daily download. This time in the form of, 'Same Time Next Week'.

The track comes from their debut EP, 'Don't Leave Home', which also features previous daily download, 'Your Honour'. Despite them labelling themselves as 'alternative rock/emo' this is a much lighter side to their music and provides the catchiest chords on their EP.

They've also released a fresh video for 'Same Time Next Week' to go along with it, which you can view below:

Daily Download... Middle Distance - Your Honour

This week's daily download comes from one of the freshest bands around. Not only did they put the song out there just a few days ago, but it's their debut single, and a promising one at that.

'Your Honour' comes off the Buckinghamshire band's debut EP, 'Don't Leave Home', which comes out on 15th December. We're loving their fresh sound, with a fusion of darker, grungey tones, heavily influenced by the likes of Modern Baseball, and counter-balanced by the equally moody, but technically beautiful Morrissey-style vocals. The alternative-rock riffs and catchy vocals will be left ringing in a bitter-sweet rhythm around your head.

The band have also released a video to accompany the song through a rare 90s camcorder, check it out below, and grab your free download of the track on the band's soundcloud!

Track of the day... Mumford And Sons - Unfinished Business

A day late, sorry! x

Ok, a White Lies song, sung by their good friends Mumford And Sons

This banjo filled acoustic version of the origional song is just splendid, with the hush vocals from the singer and the guitar at the beginning is still dark like the White Lies version. The break into the 2nd verse is brilliant, the funky banjom in the background gives the song quite a funky, dark, (emo?) fell to it.



The chorus is pulled of fantasticly, with the speeding of the song in the 3rd verse after the chorus and then into the 2nd chorus is still just as brilliant. This band have suddenly became such a cult band with tickets for upcoming gigs reaching over £100 EACH, for a initial ticket of £9 thats a bit steep.

This song was especially recorded for Triple J in Australia, and it deserves to be the track of the day.

N.B. A Day late, saved as a draft, oops...
