Headsound: Heart of a Dog - HOSS

Shindig returns to St Philips Mill Road on Friday 14th February. Readers of this blog will be familiar with Wooden Arms and Tom Adams but sandwiched in between are Norwich duo Heart of a Dog.
HOSS is four minutes of weightless melodies and rhythms unexpectedly shifting under different currents. It fades halfway through then returns with twice as much power. Vocals echo over pounding chords. This is acoustic pop that keeps you on your toes and you can grab this song as a free download.

Headsound: Mega Emotion - Brains

In honour of their appearance at The Portland this Thursday, this week's Headsound comes from Mega Emotion. The band formed by ex-members of Bearsuit appeared on a number of lists of bands to watch in 2014 despite only having released one song.
Brains is a smashing slice of disco rock. Check out the video below directed by poet, writer and multimedia extraordinaire Ross Sutherland and buy the track at megaemotion.bandcamp.com. Get to the Portland early on Thursday to hear them supporting Model Village who are launching their new album.
