Weekly Independent Music Taster #76

"Twist and shout is what I want to do tonight with you..."

TWIST & SHOUT is this week's sampler, 23 hidden gems from all around the world. Sharing its title with the often-recorded classic, this compilation is actually named after the song by Austrian cinematic indie pop outfit, Crush. Crush are this week's pick from the roster of the brilliant Numavi Records. Big Stir Records appear too. The Armoires contribute a track from their surprise April Fool's Day record!

We also welcome back a number of old friends this week. Rum For Legba (blues rock), Bob Fleming & The Cambria Iron Co. (heartland rock), The Jack O' Bones (neo-rockabilly), Luback (southern rock), The Scatterlings (bluegrass Americana), The fundaMentals (classic rock) and Paul Nowak (alternative folk). Dana Berry (Night Herons and Bitterwind) appears as part of his Energy Eater side project. As always, please download, listen loud, dig deeper with your discoveries, and support Aldora Britain Records and independent music.

Completing the line-up this week we have an eclectic cast. There is the college rock of The Reach, originally released in 1995; the neo-bluegrass of Parker Smith & The Bandwith, originally from 2011; and the electro synthwave of Sparky's Magic Piano, first released in 2007. More recent picks come in the form of folk punk from Steve White & The Protest Family, indie psychedelia from Blue Spruce and the new Mexicana of the Hoth Brothers Band.

Roots Engine bring us a heady mix of reggae and ska, Howard Gladstone delivers some contemporary folk rock and Kim Edgar performs adult contemporary pop. To finish there is Miles Island's popgaze, Desperate Electric's neo-soul, Gabagool's genre-defying adventures and Beagle's fantastic songwriting.

Thanks for listening in and enjoy!
