The latest in a long-lasting Liverpool tradition of acts able to produce infectious pop songs, The Little Secrets are here with new track ‘All I Need’. ‘All I Need’ is an example of pop-rock stereotype which goes back for decades.

In the eye of the guitar-led storm of indie rock emerging from Liverpool, it’s nice to be reintroduced to a glorious alternative. That may be a sweeping general statement, but that doesn’t make the R&B sounds of Deliah (formerly Shell Deliah) any less spectacular.

There’s not a lot that we can say about the song that we haven’t said before. But there is things to say for the official video.

It’s been said over and over and over again, but there’s something about Merseyside. When it comes to music, few places produce as consistent a level of quality and pop-rock immensity as Liverpool.

With ‘Whistle For My Love’, Jimmy & The Revolvers have created a window into the city’s colourful musical history. Strong impulsive elements of everyone from The La’s and […]
