I'll join in...as a newbie, I cannot post Youtube/Bandcamp links, so you'll have to Google yourselves, but, here goes....
THE POP GUNS - Waiting For The Winter
This one is sort of janglepop/indiepop but with a little bit of a new wave twist. A breakup/gone away to college ending.
"Six weeks gone and not a word / This means the end, I never should have held a hope...."
The Popguns have an utter knack for going straight for the gut, whether falling in love, breaking up, even drunken pulls. Then there's "Still Waiting For The Winter", a song of wistful yearning down the years (this one actually made me cry), an slightly older perspective, a flame long held.....and still an emotional punch in the gut!!!
FRISBEES IN THE FOG - Finale
Utterly gorgeous shoegaze/dream pop and an even more gorgeous female voice...apparantly a soundtrack to a secret short film that may or may not exist....
BEANS ON TOAST - Chessington World Of Adventures
Political singer songwriter...essentially a on man band...imagine Robb Johnson (who you should also check out if unfamiliar) singing Billy Bragg songs and you're half way there.
This one takes on the utter balls up the UK tory government made of covid 19.
