A pleasant sounding retro paisley pop episode today fits the November gloom. We start off with Left Outsides, a duet from London with Mark Nicholas and Alison Cotton. Then we check out The BellTowers from Orlando, FL. A new band that grew out of The Steppes, The Laissez Fairs contribute with the new single and so does the legendary Clientele who we are happy to see back. Also out in UK, from the Medway area, we have Theatre Royal and on the other side of the Earth, in New Zealand, we check out Lamp of the Universe. Stateside, Sally Crewe teams up with Doug Gillard and over in New Jersey we check out psychedelic sounds of Garcia Peoples.

We have two new heavy rock albums to start off today. Hush or Howl by Black Pistol Fire of Toronto and Austin and Get Pure by Mount Carmel from Columbus. Thee Melomen come from Zagreb, and they are basically Backstreet Brats re-branded. Pridjevi are from around there as well – studio trio which consists of Nina Romić, Dino Santaleza and Ivana Picek. Sally Crewe from Austin TX has a new ep with a cover of XTC’s Making Plans for Nigel. Doug Gillard is a guest guitar hero on it. The Hold Steady are back with the new record. For those who like mellower sounds, we have Kevin Kane from Toronto with his charming cover of Simon And Garfunkel’s Cathy and Allysen Callery re-imagines Gordon Lighfoot’s Sundown.
