Haven’t logged in for a while but got a bunch of great new followers, thanks all! I have music online, self-made, links in profile.

So much new music! I have updated featured artists on the website. Where you can browse their new releases and videos. Featuring @wsorchardonbike @redcavalry.bsky.social @anniedmusic @marinaflo.bsky.social @kimletgordon.bsky.social @annaapplegatemusic @sidebanks.bsky.social @amity_sings

Just put my bluesy song "Hotel Rooms" up on SoundCloud and BandCamp. Recorded with the Little Things project, it didn't quite make the cut, but I didn't want it to disappear forever among the files. The song describes the lonely life of a travelling salesman. side-banks.bandcamp.com/track/hotel-...

Busy working on new music, yet my latest album is less than a month old! If you dig gentle indie with a political lean, you might like this 👇 hypeddit.com/sidebanks/li...

Extremely grateful that my song "Save Your Excuses" has been included in this week's freshonthenet Eclectic Picks: Batch 568! The song is about the impact of our collective decisions on future generations. freshonthenet.co.uk/2025/05/ecle... soundcloud.com/freshnet/set...

My little album has finally reached streaming services today. Gentle indie featuring synths, piano and guitars. Personal lyrics with occasional political bite. 👇🎧 hypeddit.com/sidebanks/li...

Honoured to be included in Will Farr’s Eclectic Mix Vol. 4! These mixes are always 🔥🔥🔥👇 🎧 soundcloud.com/willfarrmusi...

Really proud of my little record. Presently available on BandCamp and reaching streamers on 9th May. If you like gentle indie with occasional political bite, perhaps you’d check it out!

I highly recommend you listen to weresistradio.com! It's a great station, and I'm very humbled to have my music in rotation.

Hi friends, my album is now going through the process of being distributed to the DSPs. For less than the price of a UK pint, you can get it right now! My process is constantly evolving, and I think this is my best collection to date. side-banks.bandcamp.com/album/little...

I very much fear this song is about to be highly relevant

Favourite. @sidebanks.bsky.social - "Found Another Year" side-banks.bandcamp.com/track/found-...

Thanks again for all the support with Democracy Died, we'll be winding down the promotion a touch. What we'd love is that if you want great protest music in these crazy times to check out & follow this playlist If it keeps growing we'll keep updating it 🙂 open.spotify.com/playlist/5wP...

#Fflwcs is on #Spotify. I once had 18 monthly listeners, then it dropped down to two - but now is back up to nine! So do your favourite Welsh nonbinary homo music maker a favour, and have a listen. Hopefully you'll like it! Diolch x open.spotify.com/artist/12YRO...

25 years ago this magical band released this superb debut album! @dovesofficial.bsky.social 'Lost Souls' is a master piece debut! I love this band with all my heart and soul 💓

Happy Birthday to one of the records that defined my younger years. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_So...

My gentle song “Sorry, Kid” reaches the streamers today! About themes of remorse, an old father regrets his mistakes and wants his kid to do better. https://hypeddit.com/sidebanks/sorrykid

Working on new music at the moment, but a few months ago I released an album. With over 15k streams, it’s my most successful release to date! https://open.spotify.com/album/4eJYHhxYa4mAI0MbVS8JLe?si=NWlQBkZfScOD0h2-X-aCtA

This one has been available on SoundCloud for a while, but is out today at other DSPs! Found Another Year is about finding a moment of joy in the grey. https://hypeddit.com/sidebanks/foundanotheryear

The UK can secure significant growth of 1.7% - 2.2% through a policy of deep alignment with the EU on goods and services, while staying within Starmer's red lines. This is the approach to push for: peak ambition within the constraints Labour has set. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Reminder for #MusicianSky: If you have something (singles, albums or listening parties) you'll release in the coming week, Feb 10 to 16, please tell me now. Deadline for submissions ends in about 9 hours! Everyone is welcome!

On Feb 7, Bandcamp will be donating 100% of our proceeds to MusiCares to provide emergency aid for artists in need, partnering with A2IM, WIN, Harman, Lagunitas, Roland, Shure, Victrola, and Women in Music to amplify the effort. Mark your calendar & spread the word. https://bit.ly/4gt9ka4

Great new music from HatShop, a collab with Shane Young (The Powdered Earth) and Chris Groom (artist and host of Indie Voices Podcast). Gentle piano and synth loveliness, pleasantly mixed, lyrics wistfully wonder if artists advertised in old promo posters are still chasing their dreams. 👇

Honoured to have a song added to Will Farr’s eclectic mix! https://willfarrmusic.com/artists/sidebanks/ Will curates at https://freshonthenet.co.uk, and DJs undiscovered music in live venues with links back to the artists’ pages. Check out his site, where you can find examples of his awesome work!

Not sure how I haven’t heard The Bobo before. Beautiful music. 🎧

Great to hear some Black Hats and BarrelHaus on Windrush Radio!

My song “The News” will be played on local station Windrush Radio tomorrow evening! The DJ is Fergus McVey, who does a great job promoting local artists. I’d highly recommend tuning in at https://www.windrushradio.co.uk. As for my song, you can find it here: https://hypeddit.com/sidebanks/thenews

Saturday nights for me mean mixing music in Logic. “Rock and roll” 😂

Wondering if @soorploom.bsky.social still has a roof.

Starting the fifty-first Starter Pack with all the bands, orchestras, independent labels, and musicians I can find on Blue Sky! Please have a look, follow some or all of them, and share this pack here and in other places! This is a work in progress and will be updated! go.bsky.app/RAmbS7n

Solidarity to all those who still believe in decency and inclusivity. 🏳️‍🌈

Now for some great polished modern rock with @barrelhaus.bsky.social https://open.spotify.com/track/22pMdDl1b5CU6ygWg8zzzQ?si=SBmpTmoeTRGgLiJpoXyciQ
