Animals with amazing disguises, two blondes and a Threesome in today’s show, as I chat with the manager of scottish band Stanley about their forthcoming 7” vinyl release, interview beautiful Leeds based singer-songwriter Jen Armstrong about her EP, due to be released this Friday, and play tracks by the lovely Kentish singer-songwriter Kelly Stanley.

_______________________________________________

In today’s Sunshinecast, I’ll be chatting with the manager of awesome Scottish band Stanley about their album ‘Animals With Amazing Disguises’ and playing their song ‘Threesome’, about which manager Steve Amos told me yesterday:

“This song is NOT available on the album “Animals with Amazing Disguises” but will be on our 7” single re-release of “Sandwiches & Tea”. You can go down in history as playing it first :)”

Well, huzzah! I’ve played tracks from the album, and I especially love ‘Edit The Night’ as regular listeners will know, but I am a teensy bit excited (okay, very excited) about playing ‘Threesome’ in today’s show. With all the wit of Jarvis Cocker, the charm of The Divine Comedy, an exceptional lead vocalist and lush arrangements, Stanley will inspire and entertain the most discerning of listeners.

You can buy Stanley’s music on their website : www.stanleytheband.com And visit their Facebook page: www.facebook.com/stanleyaberdeen

_______________________________________________

Also in today’s show, beautiful Leeds-based singer-songwriter Jen Armstrong will be back for a chat about her forthcoming EP ‘Cyber Girl’, which is to be released on Friday 8th June.

I interviewed Jen on May 15th about her adventures in LA and her plans for her music, and today I’ll be asking her how the visa application is going and playing some tracks from the forthcoming EP. The title track is being released on Thursday 7th June as a single. Here’s a teensy taste of the new single:

You’ll be able to buy it from Jen Armstrong on Bandcamp

_______________________________________________

I’m pleased to be able play some tracks today by young singer songwriter Kelly Stanley, who I met recently when I payed an acoustic set at a Jubilee weekend music festval that she organised.

Kelly Stanley’s vocal style and arrangements are reminiscent of the Cranberries in some ways, and her lyrics are brutally honest. She’s a genuinely likeable person and I’m hoping to get her to come play live in the Sunshine Studio on a future episode of the show.

‘Becoming’ is available to download or buy on CD from Bandcamp:

Mr. Payne is a UK rap artist from Folkestone in south east England with a passion for rhymes and flow.

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYjEVrDzbms&version=3&hl=en_GB]

I met Mr. Payne back in October last year, when I was privileged to attend an event organised by the lovely Di and Louie Burns of Bluesky Pie Promotions at England’s finest cheese grater, the Quarterhouse Theatre in Folkestone, Kent. This being an unsigned artists showcase night, I’d been expecting sensitive singer songwriters perched atop bar stools nervously exposing their souls, guitarists playing enthusiastic acoustic cover versions of the latest chart hits and bands showcasing new original material. There was all of that and it was all pretty good.

Some of it was excellent (be sure to check out the outstanding songwriting and musicianship of contemporary acoustic trio Arcelia, who played on the night, if you haven’t already), but Mr. Payne was like nothing I expected. I used to think I didn’t like rap, but this guy blew me away - his lyrics are witty, charming, insightful and compassionate, lyrical and musical in equal measure, and delivered with measured power and rhythmic grace. Yes, really. Listen to him rap live and acapella in this show, and see for yourself.

C3U records is a small independent label run by and for students at Canterbury Christ Church University. This year’s signings are Elle Rayenne and Patrick Channon.

This show features the the new singles ‘Celestial Navigation’ by Elle Rayenne and ‘Holding Out’ by Patrick Channon (due for release in march 2012). Read more here.

This was a very good week for new music - Sunshinecast favourite Funké and the TwoTone Baby officially released his second EP at midnight on Monday 2th February

and I’m excited about having been able to play some of it in this show. The six-track EP Injustice and Queen is available from Bandcamp and will be on iTunes and all the usual suspects shortly. Here’s what the official press release says:

Once again enlisting the production talents of ex-Death in Vegas guitarist, Ian Button, ‘Injustice & Queen’ features six all-new tracks from the beatboxing, stompboxing, loop-inducing contemporary bluesman. Although still reliant on the traditional staples, guitar and harmonica, Funké’s new offering presents a modern technological twist to engage blues fans old and new.

Yurrs. Truth, that. He also bashes the blazes out his guitar when he’s performing live, strumming so hard that he snapped a string last time he played live in the sunshine studio, such is the raw energy in his playing. Funke will be back to play live on the show again on Tuesday 10th April.

Go buy the 6 track EP Injustice and Queen on Bandcamp: http://funkeandthetwotonebaby.bandcamp.com

and Find out more about Funke on his website: www.funkeandthetwotonebaby.co.uk

___________________________________

I’m pleased to report that the show features Gig-X-Change’s Song of the Week again this week. This week’s track is The Place Where Sounds Awake by Bob Dean.

There’s also new music from a whole bunch of other talented artists, including:
Jen Armstrong (my new favourite female singer-songwriter, a Leeds girl currently on a musical adventure in LA), Abezilla (from the Pied Piper Promotions radio submissions syndicate), Edwin Miles (I’m a still a bit swoony about his music at the moment), Suicide Si (acoustic punk poet), The Undercurrent (rock, and quite a bit heavier than I usually play, but really rather good), Rosco Levee (debut album released on 17 February), Emily Sargant (amazing sixteen year old singer songwriter) and my band DaylightSaving.

Yep, it’s Shrove Tuesday, aka pancake day, aka ‘so what if you didn’t get any valentines cards, have some pancakes’ day. Today’s Sunshinecast has absolutely nothing to do with pancakes. It has music in it. You could listen to the music while you eat your pancakes, if you like. Happy Tuesday.

PS: Got some new Americana in today’s show, also some pop and some rock, including the song ‘Pure Confessions’ by Taking Down Titans, which is Gig-X-Change’s Song of The Week.

For this Valentines Day Special show, I had a plan.

I knew exactly how it was going to go, and it ~~went perfectly~~ started off well. I’d collected buckets full of love songs and songs about love by UK independent artists, none of the same tired old tat the mainstream stations have been playing to death for you, my dear and lovely radio-listening friends. There was going to be an hour of happy romantic love songs and an hour of songs about love for the anti-valentines crowd, remember me saying that? Yeah. That didn’t happen. What did happen was that I played two hours of love songs and songs about love in no particular order. Some were exquisitely lovely and sweetly romantic, some rather disturbingly dark, some triumphant “Thank you for the pain” anthems, and some sad and sorry tales of betrayal and broken hearts. In conclusion, Valentines Day is a schmaltz-fest invented to sell cards; flowers and pink-plastic-red-fluffy-chocolate-covered-heart-shaped-whatever; UK Independent artists write s0me great songs about lurrrve; and I am a rrrubbish radio presenter. Good songs though. Enjoy. With love, but perhaps not so much sunshine as you might like, Kate.

This week, my plans for the show changed suddenly, so I asked the good people of Facebook what they thought I should play this week. However, the good people of Facebook were all out having a dirty weekend in Google+ so the only person who answered me was Robert Halcrow from the band Picturebox. He said that I should play a bit of everything and (this part shocked me) “especially some Picturebox. They’re so groovy”. I’d already decided not to play acoustic stuff this week, because I’ve played a lot of that lately, so there you have it then. An eclectic electric playlist, with added Picturebox.

Picturebox describe their sound as lo-fi pop, melodic music from the cathedral city of Canterbury. They have songs about hedgehogs, football, French pop, tennis, girls, tennis girls, cakes and tea parties. I don’t know why.

As an extra treat, here’s Picturebox’s latest EP ‘YouSay No’, to brighten up your day. You Say No EP (now available to download at Bandcamp) by Picturebox for the bargain price of £2 ($3.16)

In this episode of Kate’s Sunshinecast, there’s a chat and some tunes from Suffolk-based singer-songwriter Ellie Jamison, who’s working on her first EP at the moment. I chatted with Ellie on Thursday of last week, via Skype and it was rather a grown-up, sensible presenter and musician talking about music type of interview (albeit with a little bit of me cooing over the fact that Ellie has twin toddlers) and all in all, fairly dignified.

Then, on Monday night, Katy Haymer came over to the studio to play an acoustic session and ‘have a little bit of a chat’. H’mmn. This picture (left) is of Katy playing live. See how sensible she appears to be? And they say the camera never lies…

I chatted with Katy about her new acoustic EP which is due for release in the next month and the album she’s currently working on, and she played a few songs. Then we set the world to rights, as you do.

There’s also new music from sixteen year old singer songwriter Emily Sargant, female-fronted alternative acoustic band Hook and superb jazz and blues vocalist Claire Simone. It’s got some songs by bands featuring the male of the species, too, because not all boys are smelly.

Sunshinecast Episode 32 - New friends and old favourites

Weee! Two podcasts uploaded in one day! The (seemingly insurmountable at the time) electrickeral difficulties I encountered last week mean that there’s no podcast for that week, but fear not, Ian Button (the musical hoe) has promised to come back on February 7th. The week before last I was all, “Boo-hoo, my life s a wasteland of misery” and this week I’m a bit more, “Wa-hey, my life is a paradise filled with good friends and good music”. You know how it is. There aren’t so many miserable songs in this week’s podcast, consequently, and I’m please to report that all technical gremlins appear (for the time being being) to be sleeping, if not dead. Yes, I know - I waffle too much and you just want the podcast, right? Here it is then:

This is part two of the Best (well, my favourite) of 2011, filled with rock, pop, acoustic, ska, nova-romantic, anti-folk, stripped-down punk, electronica, easy-listening, alternative rock, a tiny bit of random jazz and some tunes that just defy categorisation (my favourite and my best).

Next week, we’ll start to explore some of the newest independent music of 2012. The week after (on January 17th) we’ve got Ian Button in the studio (Thrashing Doves, Death in Vegas, David Cronenberg’s Wife and about a dozen other bands) to chat about his adventures in independent music as a musician and a producer.

Did Santa not leave you anything nice? Never mind, take this - in the last week of the year, a mixtape of all my favourite of the tunes by independent artists played on Kate’s Sunshinecast during 2011.

There was WAY too much awesome tuneage to cram into one show, so the ‘Best of 2011′ show turned into a two-parter and this is part one, filled with rock, pop, acoustic, ska, nova-romantic, anti-folk, stripped-down punk, electronica, easy-listening, alternative rock, a tiny bit of random jazz and some tunes that just defy categorisation (my favourite and my best) and another two hours of the same excellent stuff to look forward to next week.
