Live: All Time Low @ Academy Bristol
A band who keep getting bigger, keep growing and maturing musically, a band at the top of their game and who have lasted over ten years is hard to come by these days. With that in mind, it’s a good thing that All Time Low are in Bristol this evening, prepared to show...
Live: Cabbage & Blossoms @ The Roundhouse
I like the Roundhouse. If you can accept the compromised sight lines and sound, there’s something kind of cool about watching a band in an engine shed. It’s run by a charitable trust, which means it’s looked after; your feet don’t stick to the floor. Tonight, the...

Live: Mallory Knox @ Bristol Academy
Excitement looms over Bristol this evening. Mallory Knox received their second top 20 album last week, and tonight, they’re debuting some of their hotly discussed tracks for the first time on date number one of the Wired tour. To begin the evening, they’ve brought...
Live: Hothouse Flowers @ The Electric Ballroom
The weirdly polarised people that sit either side of the weirdly polarised Jeremy Clarkson debate probably have weirdly polarised opinions about his favourite musicians, Hothouse Flowers. Regardless of your take on either, there’s no denying that the first ten minutes...
Live: Lower Than Atlantis @ Great Hall, Cardiff
Lower Than Atlantis’ UK headline tour is a big deal. A big deal to more than just the four-piece themselves, but to fans, to aspiring British musicians and to the rock music scene. They’re a tale of rags to riches and a prime example of how perseverance,...
Live: Bush @ Shepherd’s Bush Empire
You’d be forgiven for thinking 1990’s rock outfit Bush were an American band, given both their sound and enduring success across the pond. Their 1994 debut studio record Sixteen Stone was certified 6x Platinum in the U.S., it’s follow-up peaked at #1 in the U.S. album...
Live: The Sherlocks @ Sheffield University Foundry, Sheffield
The Sherlocks were back in town on Friday night with their infectious good-mood beats and heavy riffs. It had been a while since I had seen them and like the sell out crowd, I was looking forward to their set and those of the supporting acts Oddity Road and Sundance. ...
Live: Elbow @ Hammersmith Apollo, London
I’m grateful to my wife for so many things. She spots the traffic cameras I don’t. She’s always on hand with salient fashion advice. Her meringues are the stuff of legend. And then there’s Elbow. The first time I saw this band was in 2012 when they were touring Build...
Live: The Handsome Family & Courtney Marie Andrews @ Union Chapel
Union Chapel is a cosy venue, perfect on a late winters evening. People are bundled up in warm clothes settling onto padded seat cushions and cradling mugs of tea and cocoa in the soft coloured lighting, candle light and the kaleidoscope of the chapel's rose window....
Live: Band Of Horses @ Troxy, London
What a great night. Before the enigmatic Band Of Horses adorn the East London stage, I'm not surprised to see that folk have arrived early to witness a warm-up from Israel Nash who would quite rightly on another occasion command a headline slot in his own right. The...
Live: Jo Harman @ The Jazz Cafe Camden
RockShot doesn’t do album reviews. If it did, I’d be able to tell you that Jo Harman’s sophomore album People We Become, released earlier this month to wide critical acclaim, is truly exceptional and you really, really should buy it. Oh. Whilst I can’t do what I just...
Green Day Bring Revolution Radio To The O2 Arena
With the recent controversial U.S. presidential appointment seemingly the only thing I’m forced to read about these days on the news, it seems that rockers Green Day have ample inspiration for new material coming hard and fast. With the announcement in September 2016...
Live: Boss Hog @ Oslo Hackney, London.
All you needed to do was to follow the cooler, older crowd straight upstairs to know where the gig was. Queuing up in all shades of black, anyone who knew the history of Boss Hog is here, representing with green hair, pink hair, long hair or no hair at all. Boss Hog...
Live: Pete RG, Staticland & Candlebox @ Underworld, Camden
Living in London means one thing, you are always surrounded by live music. If you're lucky and choose correctly, you could have a decent feast almost every night. If your choices fail you might end up in a need of ear plugs in a pub that charges you more than a fiver...
