I was only in Cuba for a short time (10 days) but during that time, music was everywhere, whether it was a full band in the streets of Havana, a lone Troubadour in a Trinidad restaurant or a small metal festival in a car park in Santa Clara.

Album Review: The Voidz - Virtue (2018)
Virtue by the Voidz. One of the most varied and in my opinion exciting releases of the year so far.

I had a great time and if you're a fan of Mr Lenman's music you won't be disappointed. I'd also urge those who aren't necessarily fans to go along and see what all the fuss is about.
Album Review: Creeper - Eternity, in Your Arms (2017)
Overall Eternity, In Your Arms is an excellent album, It's by no means perfect and there are a few songs I'm not hugely into but there are enough good songs and good ideas littered throughout that keep me coming back for more.
