Summary
Hop onto the new music train (as long as your have the correct ticket for the whole of your journey) and hop off at the three awesome stops that are on the route for todays Freshly Squeezed. I'm going to stop the train thing now. Jim Salveson once again brings you tunes and chat from a trio of emerging artists with some top new tunes. This week you are going to hear from... The Rooks: White-hot Scottish bands, The Rooks are firmly in the 'Ones To Watch' camp. A phenomenal rise over the last 12 months has put the band firmly on the new music hot list with 'Found My Reason' why only likely to add fuel to that fire. Michael Gallagher: The wide open spaces of the North East inspire Michael Gallaghers Americana fuelled new tune 'Home'. A new musical direction handled with the deftness and skill we've come to expect from one of the North's finest singer/songwriters. Malcom: The Manchester-based band are stretching their musical-wings with new tune 'Hard Working Blues' which takes inspiration from the genre the name suggests to create something reminiscent of The Black Keys and Queens of the Stone Age.
