Okay, sorry to be posting again but I didn't fully explain what I want to do with this blog in the first entry and I am aiming not to go back and edit entries.
I want to also use this space to talk about music that I love, and to talk about artists I respect, and bands that I have only just heard about - because they are unsigned or don't have a big record company promoting them or whatever.
At the moment I am loving Fleet Foxes. I bought their album in Zavvi a few weeks ago for only £5 and it rocks. I had heard about them prior to this as Uncut magazine had given them an award.
I would describe their music as folky chillout rock but that's just me. I don't have a degree in music.

They seem hardworking and genuine. Their album cover is also brilliant.
I find their music very peaceful and inspiring.
It reminds me very much of late 60s early 70s folk rock.

About Me
- CTVicky
- My passion in life is music. I love listening to it (live or recorded - though of course, live is the best), dancing to it, talking about it and reading about it. It was only natural that one day I would do something like this. I also write poetry and short stories. I set up this blog as an offshoot of something I got involved with in December which was very inspiring, the campaign to get Jeff Buckley to Christmas Number One. I led a "protest" in Trafalgar Square. This really inspired me to spread awareness of the importance of listening to what I call *real* music. Find out a little more here: Sunday Times Article This also led me to becoming involved with Oxjam, a sort of "child" of Oxfam. I promote the music.
