Things can only get Beta
Article Abstract:
The music of The Beta Band, a four-piece group, is extremely attractive but seems to defy classification. Its members are all from the countryside, and they like to feel that they inhabit their own village. The group is particularly attractive when performing live, when the surging, deceptively simple music seems to put the audience into a trance. The members of the group do not really like talking about their sources of inspiration, and will only discuss the mundane details from which their music seems so remote.

Baby bird is half beast and half songwriter. He is wholly a force of nature. But he is not the Beatles
Article Abstract:
Songwriter Steven Jones, also known as Baby Bird, comes across as arrogant in public, but this is not his true personality. He has experienced difficulties with record companies, and this has made him rather sceptical. He has built up a considerable following, with fans being fascinated by the obscure origins of his music. He plans to release three more albums within the next six months, and will then release a Greatest Hits selection.
