Oh, how I do love an indie compilation lp! One of the best ways to discover new bands 😀

Any Newcastle and Edinburgh based shoegaze fans out there?

Make the effort to see Scoreboard (Newcastle tonight, Edinburgh Tuesday) who are over from Norway for a quick tour. They were absolutely cracking last night 🚀💜👠👁️ #shoegaze #scoreboardband
