SINGLE: FUTURE PROOF – ONE MORE CHANCE
‘One More Chance’ is the Debut single from new pop boy band, Future Proof. Think a Busted style line up, with more of a new McFly style track, over a Taio Cruz beat…Basically there will be thousands of girls across the country screaming their names at some point in the next year. The track is catchy, and is definitely in the running to be a Glee cover soon enough. As far as the lyrics go, they aren’t anything out of the ordinary; it’s another ‘love song’,... Read More

LIVE: KENDAL CALLING 2011
Saturday Waking up from possibly the worst night’s sleep and feeling like a microwave meal – it was so hot in the tent I burst out before I exploded; I feel far from ‘top of the morning’. Although we are in the quiet family camping area large groups of teenagers and lads camping together seem to never sleep or stop screaming. It’s always difficult to control noise levels at festivals without ruining the fun but there really should have been some kind of monitoring... Read More
LIVE: KENDAL CALLING 2011
