Muse and Stevie Wonder to headline Glastonbury

Muse and Stevie Wonder have been confirmed to headline this years Glastonbury festival along with U2 on the opening night, in what marks the return of the domination of supergroups and retro stars.

Not that it in itself is a bad thing it just adds to the event and makes it more of a challenge for the newer bands to make the stage and audience their own, Muse will play the second night and Stevie Wonder plays the Sunday night at Worthy Farm.

If the weather stays fine it promises to be one of the best yet.

North Atlantic Oscillations Debut Album Out 22nd March

North Atlantic Oscillations Debut Album Grappling Hooks is going to be released on the 22nd of March and we have a trailer so you’ll know what to expect  from this eagerly awaited album, The band are going to release the first single from the Album on the 8th called Drawing Maps from Memory its already receiving heavy airplay from Zane Lowe on Radio 1.

NAO certainly don’t sound like any other band out there at the moment in an age when rock is more of a case of paint by numbers from the first listen, this album and its first single sound like a master piece in the making.

Truly one of the best bands to come out of Scotland in a long while blending elements of electronica and rock into something whilst being multi layered and engaging is equally fun and entertain.

Grappling Hooks is going to be supported by a mini tour around the normal venues so go get your tickets and be entertained.
