We are delighted to say that we are currently getting loads of airplay for our labels latest releases… both Pama Intl (the reissue of their debut album) and the Babyhead singles.

For the second week running Mike Davies spun a track from the Pama Intl debut album on his Radio One show last night. You can hear it again for a week here http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00svqly If you’d like to hear more Pama Intl on Mike’s show email him and let him know! punk.show@bbc.co.uk

John Kennedy on xfm has been playing both bands last week. Alex Lester on BBC Radio 2 spun the Babyhead single, as did David Rodigan on his Kiss100 show.

This brings it to 33 radio shows now spinning the Babyhead singles and 21 spinning the Pama Intl reissue, with more coming onboard daily

Listen out for a Pama Intl interview on Chris Hawkins morning show on BBC6 on the 23rd July

Thanks to everyone who came out to our last 3 shows of the year. First time we’ve played Norwich. What a great crowd and venue. We thoroughly enjoyed our debut there.

The weekend shows in Newcastle and Leeds were even better then expected with both being rammed. Newcastle is one of my favourite cities to play and despite the severe weather warning still sold out.

We’re back in Leeds on Feb 19 (at The Well).

Inbetween all the shows we fitted in 2 BBC sessions. The first an acoustic/stripped down affair on Janice Longs show. Very enjoyable.

The second was for Chris Hawkins on BBC6 who was filling in for Cerys Matthews. We were asked sometime ago if we’d be up for doing some ‘dub carols’. The day before it became apparent Finny wasn’t going to beable to sing! At the 11th hour the incredible Anna Stott from East Park Reggae Collective stepped in and did a fantastic job. Not quite carols, but two Christmas songs were played… ‘I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus’ on a reggae tip and ‘White Christmas’ in a ska fashion.

For those of you who missed the sessions you can listen again now at
