Freshly Squeezed: A New Music Podcast

Ready for a musical journey! All three of this weeks featured acts have very different musical styles but all have one thing in common, they're bloody awesome.
Switch on, lock in, this is some of the good stuff...
Embrace: 30 years making music has not dulled the flame for Embrace. ‘Avalanche’ is an album brimming with a confidence that only 3 decades of mastery can bring. It somehow manages to push the bands sound to a fresh new place whilst being quintessentially “Embrace” at the same time.
McGrath: Stunning songwriting with a traditional Irish heart its almost impossible to think that 'Rotha', given how accomplished it is, is the debut song from this young talent. It's got us suitably excited about what is to come.
Pihka Is My Name x IanGX: Pinka's scandi disco pop layers brilliantly with the rock-inspired vocals of IanGX (Katalina Kicks / Amongst Liars) to create something somewhere between Talking Heads, Marilyn Manson and 30 Seconds To Mars. Ridiculously infectious and a tune to whet the appetite for further collaborations!

'Freshly Squeezed: A New Music Podcast' is written, researched, and hosted by Jim Salveson. Sound design and series production from Ant McGinley. This weeks episode was put together in Manchester. The show's theme tune, 'Blue Blazer' is from Manchester's Spin Klass.

One podcast, three bands... we go again! Jim Salveson is back to introduce you to some awesome new music. This week it includes a band backed by a A&R legend, a great act trying something new stateside and ACTUAL INDIE ROCK ROYALTY. Here's what's on the pod...
Rev and Makers: The latest offering from Jon McClure is a record that sounds both confident in its songwriting ability and comfortable in its own skin. The Rev is turning up the Northern Soul inspiration for new album ‘Is This How Happiness Feels’ and the result is a stand out LP from the bands 20 years making music.
The Gulps: European punk rock with a very UK sound. It’s easy to see why Mr Oasis, Alan McGee has chosen to back The Gulps and signed them to his Label, It’s Creation Baby. Mixing spikey punk vibes with strong melody in a way that is reminiscent of The Buzzcocks, ‘Got Ya’ is a tune you’ll struggle to sit still to!
Untold River: Combining the heart of England’s North West with the sounds of the US, Untold River pays tribute to his old and new homes with “Tragedy on Market Street” revealing some clever songwriting and brilliant musicianship.

James Holt: The best songwriter you've (probably) never heard of! James is swapping Beatles-esq harmonies for a heavier, Doors-esq, almost psychedelic sound for his new project and 'Sanguine On The Rocks' proves he's equally accomplished in either form.
MOSAICS: Leaning into a classic late 00s indie vibe, MOSAICS layer big vocals, bright guitars along with a juxtaposed lyrical dread. "Heaven Knows" is taken from a triumphant debutEP from the London 4 piece.
Asgard Raven: Developing his Brit-pop inspired sound into something more complex, mature and maybe even psychedelic, Asgard Raven is back after a brief musical hiatus and music is a better place for it.

SHADER: Another song with swagger from Stoke's leading exporter of Indie Rock. A slight classic rock twist to the latest from SHADER that showcases what they do best; Big, stadium ready, anthems!
Felix Hill: Having spent time recently writing with Liam Gallagher's drummer, the latest release is close to something from the songbook of Guy Garvey for Bolton's Felix Hill. 'Comfortable Silence' showcases his unique and captivating singing style perfectly.
Know One: It's a bold new musical direction for Jacob Reddy as he dips a toe in the emo rock pool and smashes it first try with a big, emotive and accomplished anthem.
