Penguins Kill Polar Bears : Vessels & Veins

Despite their glaringly inaccurate band name [insert whimsical face made of punctuation here], Penguins Kill Polar Bears seem to know what they’re doing. The band are from Linlithgow, near Edinburgh, joining legions of other Scottish post-rock bands, and Vessels & Veins is their second EP.
The outfit have drawn comparisons to Explosions in the Sky, The Twilight […]

Pandora's Box UK Number 1 Covers

As well as vocal harmonies being strong point in Pandora’s Box skill set, they are also imaginative with the arrangements of their accompanying instruments. This makes it easy for them to create original sounding songs from the wide variety of music from the pop charts. The Hertfordshire based folk pop band have been creating their […]

Pandora’s Box- We Are Who We Are

There is only one way to describe Pandora’s Box’s style and that is unique. From the moment the song starts you can tell that it is going to be something out of the ordinary. An acoustic version of the hit by Ke$ha could be deemed an ambitious song to attempt to cover as it has […]

Pandora's Box – Grenade

I have enjoyed listening to Hertfordshire’s folk popplets, Pandora’s Box as they have been filming their own live covers of UK number one singles. With the recent news of Jo Wiley going through the change from Radio 1 to Radio 2 presenter, its nice to see that there are musicians out there keeping the Live Lounge vibe alive. […]

The UK Number 1 Project

The quirky, meaningful and original Pandora’s Box have recently won a youtube award for one of their music videos in their ever impressing and increasingly popular Number 1 Project. The number 1 Project was the brain wave of all the members of the bands and sees the band add their quirky folk pop twist to the current UK […]

Pandora’s Box consists of sisters Chloe and Tabitha Tingey, Ben Cork and Ash Howarth. Despite being under 18’s they were picked by Rob Da Bank as the winners […]

Under Cover of Darkness – A stroke of genius, or just playing safe?

The Strokes’ highly anticipated comeback single, Under Cover of Darkness, doesn’t come shyly. Its piercing intro riff snatches your attention, and within seconds I can guarantee you will be tapping your foot to the same bouncy sounds that had the world all charged up and optimistic nearly a decade ago.
This means that we can stop holding our […]

They are dancing their way towards Proud Camden right now, spreading the funky love along the way. Their estimated time of arrival is February 28th at […]

Melo Kan – Signs

Up until recently I was completely unaware of who California-based rapper, Melo Kan was. That was until I discovered his latest track, Signs. Upon hearing the track I was instantly captivated by the catchy lyrics, chirpy melody and Melo Kan’s faultless delivery of the track.
Melo Kan is not some mercenary who has identified the […]

It is sufficient to say that Ms. Sherry is a fully-trained classical violinist from County Kildare in Ireland and educated at Trinity College. Mr. Lovland is Norwegian, […]
