Weekly Independent Music Taster #88

After a week's sabbatical, we are back with a brand new taster compilation album. Sidbury is a fine sampling of independent and underground talent from all around the globe. The album's title is a homage to our frequent collaborator and close friend Marshall Sidbury, who is also included here. As always, please download, listen loud, dig deeper with your discoveries, and support Aldora Britain Records and independent music.

We welcome back a number of familiar faces this week. These include the synthwave meanderings of The Big Believe and the Britpop revival of Darren Tuck. Sam Pointer and Georgie Jessup also contribute two tracks each. Sam introduces us to Hitchhiking Honeymoon and his solo project and Georgie introduces us to Big Love and her solo work. Noel Holston, who has contributed a Johnny Cash article to our next e-zine, also appears.

The Woogemen open proceedings with a strong boogie feel, Jonathan Foster then delivers some Americana folk rock and Kings Of The Quarter Mile have the roots rock covered. Steve Bonham & The Long Road give us travelling folk rock, Sam Pointer has some bluesy rock for us and Siena Christie gives us some tender singer/songwriter folk. Get Smart! and Neon TP bring an alternative post-punk infusion and Anton Barbeau is this week's pop rock contribution from Big Stir Records.

There is Scottish traditional folk from Madderam, swamp pop from Max & The Martians and folk rock-infused Americana from Melanie Berdofe. There is bluegrass-themed country folk from Acoustic Mayhem, mandolin-infused country from King Thurber and psychedelic folk rock from The People. Chuck McDermott (folk rock) and The Wild Honey Collective (country folk) play us out.

Special thank you to all the artists involved and the music lovers that keep coming back to AB Records. Enjoy, play loud and see you next week!
