[Skip the smalltalk - click here for this week’s edition]
We’ve been trying to cover a bit more visual art and this week we have TWO lovely interviews with one local and one visiting artist. We’ve been listening to and reviewing local music for a couple of years, now, and so we’ve also rounded up ten musicians and bands that we think you should at least know about - this new video is up now. Also in this week’s jam packed issue:
