CAN YOU believe we’re nearly halfway through the year? Doesn’t time fly.

Our playlist this week includes a track that will help you get ready for the midpoint in the year (and sadly, it’s all downhill from here when it comes to daylight).

It’s just one of 10 great tracks for your aural pleasure, and it’s available for free on Spotify. Our playlist is a mixture that will help you discover something new.

To hear this week’s selection, simply head to https://bit.ly/rawsoundstoday and enjoy the music.

There is also a Facebook page and group chat that bands and music fans can tap into. You can search for RaW Sounds Today and it will come up.

One Eyed Man – Been Up All Day

With the Summer Solstice being next week it’s a good opportunity to feature a song from this local musician’s Solstice EP that was released last year.

One Eyed Man, aka Stuart Hutton, is a very good indie folk singer-songwriter who has been going down well at festivals and gigs throughout the country. That’s no surprise with songs like this one and the others on the EP.

There’s a chance to see him live at Wokingham Festival in August so don’t miss that – https://www.facebook.com/TheOneEyedManOfficial

The Wave Machine – Break Away

Here’s one of our fave artists from the local area. Actually Angus Trott, aka The Wave Machine, currently lives in Cornwall but even though he’s far away from his home town you can hear his joyous sound of the sun and the sea in his music.]

This is his new single and it’s another good one.

There is something about the Wave Machine’s music that brings a smile to your face and makes you feel good. This new single certainly does that. He will be playing locally soon – https://linktr.ee/thewavemachine

One Last Day – I’m Here To Stay (Acoustic)

As well as being an exciting rock band, One Last Day show that they can also perform well acoustically with this new version of a song that was originally on their debut EP.

The band is building a good reputation with their live shows and recordings like this which should only enhance that. There is a chance to see a stripped-back acoustic performance from the band not too far away, at High Wycombe HMV on June 24, and their rock set at Wokingham Festival in August – https://linktr.ee/onelastday

The Two Ton Shoes – Weight of a Stone

This Reading-based trio’s debut single is an excellent slice of blues-based riff-laden rock. Watch out for more from them later in the year when they plan to release a full EP – https://linktr.ee/thetwotonshoes

Purple Grace – When I’m Not With You

A good new indie rock band from Reading. They will be at Wokingham Festival in August – https://www.facebook.com/purplegraceband
