My review of the new Strawberry Whiplash single. Out now on Matinee! www.tumblr.com/daggerzine/7...

If you can be sure to catch Jeanines on the road with labelmates Lightheaded (who also have a new album out today!) for shows together in NYC, Paris and the UK — including the Skep Wax Weekender and the Glas-Goes Pop After Party. Fantastic! Tickets on sale now: linktr.ee/jeaninesligh...

Happy release day to Jeanines, whose new album "How Long Can It Last" is a beautifully crisp pop statement that through some mysterious alchemy combines 60s soft/sunshine vibes with the concise thrill of 80s DIY pop and their best tunes yet. 100% magic. jeanines.bandcamp.com/album/how-lo...

Strawberry Whiplash - Baby (You're a Dancer), enjoy, Laz :-) #indiepop

Hello pop lovers, Strawberry Whiplash have a new single out today called 'Baby (You're a dancer)', it's available on most streaming sites. It is also available directly from Matinee recordings.

Teenage Daydream: We are the Girls Who Play in a Band. The story of amazing Debsey Wykes and, of course, Dolly Mixture. Read more and pre-order Monorail exclusive signed hardback with exclusive Paul Kelly fanzine: monorailmusic.com/product/teen...

Me and Pete Wiggs first saw the Dolly Mixture supporting Orange Juice at the Venue in Victoria, January 1982. They blew us away. Luckily for us they then seemed to play in Croydon every other week. After one show Pete said "they've got better songs than the Beatles". tinyurl.com/yz77z22f

Kelly Marie - Feels Like I'm In Love (1980) Looking at some inspiration for the new Strawberry Whiplash album. Now, where can I order a sailor suit in my size? Lol :-)

I've had a busy morning tidying up, tidying up my desktop :-)

New world record set for the time a man is in and out of the loo :-)

I promised the kids a new trampoline, let’s see what turns up. 💨

Bubblegum Lemonade - New Year or New York For those who do not have Spotify.

Happy New Year MUSIC LOVERS. It's been an amazing year for Bubblegum Lemonade, with a successful series of well recieved singles, and what is possibly my best album to date, Lawrence of Suburbia. A big thank you to the good people who have enjoyed/supported BL in 2024. Laz :-) #indiepop

🎄❄️ Jangle Bells! 🔔🎁 Count down to Christmas with the Indiepop Hall of Fame Advent Calendar. 🪟 2 🧑‍🎄Bubblegum Lemonade @bubblegumnow.bsky.social ☃️Number One For Christmas open.spotify.com/track/53IGxf... Suggestions for more festive indiepop welcome!

This week's TOP OF THE STRAWBS. Great to see the Christmas song, Santa Needs A Hoilday, sitting atop the chart, and the new Strawberry Whiplash single, Frosty The Snowman, crashing into the TOP FIVE. Hurrah, Laz and Sandra.

This week's TOP OF THE POPS (lol). Number one with a bullet, 'There Will Be Another' is the current favourite on Spotify. It's a *great* piece of reassuring advice for those who are unlucky in love. I'm expecting there to be more Holiday songs in next week's top ten. Laz :-)

Strawberry Whiplash - Frosty the Snowman soundcloud.com/matinee-reco...

Happy December! Strawberry Whiplash are kicking off the holiday season with a surprise Christmas single, ‘Frosty the Snowman’ with Sandra providing especially sugary vocals and Laz (the Hal Blaine of the drum machine) on the backing track. shop.matineerecordings.com/products/str...

The new Bubblegum Lemonade CD album is still available in the Monorail record shop in Glasgow, UK. I dropped by yesterday to chat with the gang and spotted this gem out on display :-) It's also available to order from their online shop. Laz. monorailmusic.com/product/lawr...

This week's Bubblegum Lemonade TOP OF THE POPS (lol) is 'Someone Made You Sad' from the new Lawrence Of Suburbia CD album. I'm strongly considering making it the next digital single. Check it out on SPOTIFY :-) open.spotify.com/track/23IGMm...

Now that I am eventually here, I suppose that I should post something :-) Here's the opening track from 'Lawrence of Suburbia', the new Bubblegum Lemonade CD album. Enjoy! The song first started life as a demo back in December 2011. That's quite the gestation period. Cheers, Laz :-)
