The recent release of his LP "So Little Happened For So Long", his first for 23 years prompted live sessions on BBC6 allowing more ears to be blessed by this national treasure. https://nevclay.bandcamp.com/ The Exes Formed before anyone was ready, The Exes' brand of melodic garage punk is uniquely their own. They don't play out much and haven't recorded any new material for years, so this is a great opportunity to hear lots of new stuff. https://theexesband.bandcamp.com/ Faithful Johannes and Neocia Faithful Johannes is a sincerity rapper whose words shine and fly and float over Neocia's soundscapes like petals on a swirling river.
