Jackdaw (Cutthroat)
A superb collection of alternative country that sees it’s main players more than happy to sit in the shadows and let the songs do the talking.
Introducing…Danny “O” & The Astrotones
Danny "O" & The Astrotones (Witchcraft)
More than rockabilly, in fact, quite a bit more as this is rock ‘n’ roll with blues, garage and punk thrown in as well and ending up with an assured debut album.
One In A Million
Twisted Rod (Rhythm Bomb)
Twisted Rod has certainly done it again and produced a whirlwind of rockin’ rockabilly and rock ‘n’ roll with current album ‘One In A Million’.

Sweet Thing
Bonita & The Blues Shacks (Rhythm Bomb)
It’s certainly a mixed bag of styles that flows throughout the album ‘Sweet Thing ‘and therefore offering something for all blues and rhythm and blues supporters, but when the traditional route is given some airtime, then it’s where Bonita & The Blues Shacks truly shine.
The Ragtime Wranglers – ‘New Spark Boogie / Free Ballin‘
The Ragtime Wranglers (Homebrew Records)
