Music Interview: Stephanie Brownlee

Many people are fazed by the term ‘country’. It has always evoked long-suffering, oft withered faces like Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson; to some, country is sad old man music, littered with oversized cowboy hats, denim shirts and deeeeee-pressing stories of love long gone and your baby done wrong, pardner.

DC Root – Interview : Music Interviews

DC Root is a unique creature in this music jungle; a frank and sharp urban beat poet fronting a rag-tag group of country-punk rapscallions.

Fingertips (Claire Knight) : Interview

Never let it be said that snobbery gets you anywhere.
