THE MOTHERLOAD
"Combine the laid back, impossibly catchy melodic styles of the UK’s chart bothering indie hordes with an undercurrent of angular guitar work, a bedrock of bounding rhythm and round it off in a refreshingly unassuming approach; voila, you have Bristol trio The Motherload... it’s hardly difficult to see why the band have been raising some eyebrows in areas of the UK music community lately" Rob Sayce - rockpulse.co.uk

"A band that blends indie influences with high octane riffs and explosive melodies"

ACOUSTIC LOUNGE:
 
Zoe Mead, Riffs Bar, Swindon
ZOE MEAD
“Further on in the set, a track like 'Sonnet of London' illustrates just why Swindon singer-songwriter Zoe Mead has been creating so much local buzz in recent months. The country-tinged style lends itself well to her vocal range and the song is as upbeat as any that you will find on the disc.” - Artrocker Magazine (on the Hilldrop records compliation CD - 'We are your friends')
