Wonderland - Rolling In The Deep (Adele cover)

Wonderland's brilliant debut EP was released this week, but if that wasn't enough, they've also treated us to a brilliant acoustic session for The Sun. I love how they inject some really grit and soul into this cover of Adele's smash hit Rolling In The Deep. It's an inspired version and really shows the best of what the girls have to offer as a band. Great stuff!

Brother - Time Machine

Hailing from Slough and signed to Geffen Records, Brother are being touted as one of the hottest new things in music at the moment. With coverage in The Sun (featuring some amazing caricatures drawn by the band’s front-man Leonard Newell), they are on a swift rise to fame and their song Time Machine, available as a free download from their website certainly backs up the hype.

There chorus’s are pure Oasis, all ‘Love is a time machine, bringing you back to me...’, epic and anthemic. It’s fair to say Brother definitely have some of that magic Gallagher swagger to them and they use every scrap of it available to them to pack into their music. They’re also their own distinct band though, the verses in particular marking out their own particular identity. It’s still full of classic rock n’ roll vibes but injected with a hip sense of the here and now. With the Brit-pop legends of the past behind us, Brother strive to create something new and exciting. And with Time Machine, they’re most definitely succeeding.
