The lights are up and the feeling is in the air and it’s not really because of Christmas itself, more-so the fact that Deaf School were back in town. The bright Liverpool legends aren’t just shy of the city, they rarely play anywhere but now that their first album in 39 years is tightly in…

JAWS, Marsicans, Social Contact, The Magnet 24/11/2017
The B-Town indie pop band, Jaws, took on The Magnet last night, and appeared to be all conquering. Halfway through their headline UK tour, Jaws turned up to The Magnet, which, from the rate at which the gig sold out, seems like a remarkably small venue for a band of this size and hype. Having…
