If&nbsp;Jarrod&nbsp;Dickenson's third studio album, BIG TALK sounds like a mighty roar of defiance, that's not a design choice or a marketing decision. The big Texan is settling scores all over town and he means every f*cking word. so what happened in the years since the release of&nbsp;Dickenson's soulful sophomore long-player, Ready the Horses, to have turned this honey-voiced southern gentleman into a brawler? After a major label deal-gone-bad threatened to choke off his career and Covid complications left him with a life-long medical condition&nbsp;Dickenson&nbsp;would have certainly been forgiven for retreating to his Nashville home to lick wounds and maybe write a collection of introspective self-pity anthems. Instead, the hardships and infuriation of recent years have only added steel to the resolve of an artist already willing to do it the hard way, prepared to stand in the face of a music business that shows dwindling regard for the brand of artistry that first inspired him to pick up a guitar and sing for his life. This album represents&nbsp;Dickenson's most direct and uncompromising body of song writing to date, and his decision to occupy the producer's chair has injected BIG TALK with a drive and coherence that compliments the muscle of its material. Dickenson&nbsp;now exists as a fiercely independent artist, a look that suits him well and allows his creativity to follow whatever path it damn well pleases. Nowhere is this attitude better encapsulated than in the bluesy rock and roll growl of his ferocious new album BIG TALK, released worldwide on February 3rd, 2023 via Hooked Records.

Tom McGuire & the Brassholes is a funk-soul powerhouse from Glasgow. Combining rich arrangements with meticulous songcraft, and untouchable in live performance, the band is carving a niche of their own.

Following the success of their 2019 debut album, the group is ready to enter an exciting second phase. First busking on the streets of Glasgow and playing in bars, they burst onto the scene with their viral debut single, 'Ric Flair'.

Months later the band launched their debut album with a sell-out show in Glasgow. Since then, they have supported Craig Charles and George Clinton, have become a firm favourite on the festival circuit and have toured extensively in the U.K and Europe.

The band’s music is full of vitality – classic pop sensibility with high musicianship values and rich production. At the root is soulful song, telling stories and sharing experiences of joy, turmoil, loss, celebration, sadness and happiness, all delivered in finely-honed parcels of aesthetic bliss. Life is confusing and hard, but music is fun and great, so let’s talk about it whilst getting down.
