Over a couple of pints, we talked of musical themes, recording and production, and the influence of one…

Since plummeting onto the Liverpool music scene with their caffeine-fuelled debut ‘Coffee’, Salt the Snail have been busily working away behind-the-scenes.

The Peaky Blinders bar in Liverpool’s Baltic Trinagle has proved to be very popular; here, we try to explore why Liverpool loves a themed bar. Liverpool is known for a vibrant cultural scene, and big the personalities who populate it. Its reputation is perhaps rooted in music: the infamous Mersey Beat, carved out in the 60s, by those four boys we all know and love, who don’t even need to be mentioned by name. There…
It’s quite simple: three brand new tracks, from the project lead by all round musician-producer Rob Langford, from Liverpool, build consistently on the success of previous singles Dopamine and Kids, and speak to the part of you that craves escapism, love and achievement. And they do this in a clever way that combines a retro upbeat sound, super clean production and an intuition that speaks to the inner, slightly uncertain you, and reassures it that…
Liverpool and Merseyside is absolutely bristling with fabulous musical talent, and the acoustic scene with its abundant open night mic nights and events led by the likes of Graham Holland at Liverpool Acoustic and Dave McTague and the team at Mellowtone testify for this. However, while discussing this thriving scene, the team at Klee Music wondered if the following would work: an evening where three singer-songwriters shared the stage together, sing a couple of songs…
Liverpool’s given us many great musicians over the years, from The Beatles and Frankie Goes to Hollywood, to newer bands such as The Wombats and The Zutons. Like many bands that have gone before them, new-kids-on-the-block, Skinner’s Lane, don’t originally hail from the city; rather the city brought them together. The three-piece – comprising Zak Langford-Do, Rob Holland, and James Kerr – have roots beyond the city, but if their debut single is anything to…

A themed bar will be opening in the city in early 2018, paying homage to the cult classic 80’s movie The Goonies. Following the arrival of the likes of the Home Alone and Peaky Blinders themed bars this year, Liverpool will be home to another quirky venue.

It’s no secret that overindulgence is a huge part of Christmas time from traditional mulled wine and mince pies, endless food stalls at your local Christmas markets and that familiar feeling of never wanting to ever eat again after demolishing your fourth course of Christmas dinner followed by an overdose of Brie, Stilton and crackers. As well as food, Christmas is all about tradition and what better way to celebrate the festive season than with…
