Hope and Social Leeds
In the tradition of the travelling bands, we guess we’re a bit like a Yorkshire E-Street Band...meets Arcade Fire...meets

Hope and Social recommends:
Little Battles
by She Makes War
The ace Laura Kidd. We've been treated to a sneak preview of this, but it's part of my regular headphone listening (Rich). Try "Blue" for aquatic, pretty pop fabness. Woop!

Mixed by our very own Ed. The ideal "getting ready for a night out" album. More hooks than a fisherman's box, more pep than a whippet on speed, and damn good songs to boot!

by Steve Lawson
Lovely lovely Steve Lawson's album, written about "love, journeying, gratitude, growing older, enjoying london, becoming a dad..." and other stuff. Loopy bass goodness from a lovely man. Go try!
