She's our, she's our spark plug.........................

The lovely Anna Meldrum came up on maybe the sunniest day for years in Stirling, to spend two hours in our wee studio, bringing her brand of perky, folky pop to the show. About to launch with a band later this month, her solo tracks are here for your downloading pleasure.  Keep looking out for her over the next few months - you will be hearing a lot more from her and her band.

 Jocasta Sleeps love their mothers but only an amount as appropriate by law.....

 

The brilliant Jocasta Sleeps, aka Callum, John and Niall were our session guests for what was one of the most crowded and well recieved sessions so far.  Three blinding tracks and a wee extra cover. After air3snewmusicshow found a quite fantastical video on YouTube of the boys we decided to challenge them to practice and then play us a cover using the £17's worth of toy instruments we could find from the early learning centre - during the show.  The results are, well, listen for yourself by clicking the mp3 below. Constantly playing around scotland, festival appearances and trips down south, Jocasta are a breed apart and a band we'd been looking forward to having in session for a long time. They played the Stirling Union's Transmission Live music night, after, blowing the roof off the wee room and showing why they are one of Scotland's brightest talents.

They are friends with We Are Scientists - does that mean we are too?....

 

A sunny day in Stirling saw the arrival of Scott and Larry of The Cinematics at the Air3 studios. Fresh from the studio from recording the follow up to their debut album A Strange Education, which saw them tour Europe and America with the likes of Snow Patrol, We Are Scientists and The Editors, and even saw We Are Scientists appear in their music video for Break. The boys treated us to three smashing new tracks, which promise the new album should be an absolute belter. Catch them on tour around Europe from April, with T4 finalists Hip Parade as support.

One musician and his dog do a session.....(not in that way....)....

 

Jonathan, lead singer from Glasgow’s My Cousin I Bid You Farewell came up to the studiothe other day.  He came with some cracking tracks performed solo and acoustic and some definate favourites in the part of the show where we get the session band to choose their own tracks. MCIBYF have only been going as a a full band for a matter of months, beginning with just Jonathan, some line-up changes etc later and they've played their debut gig on Vic Galloway's Introducing show, been named artist of the month in the mighty Your sound band showcase and gigging more and more round glasgow, their latest recordings are definately something to get hold of from their myspace but you can get the solo, acoustic session tracks Jonathan did live on the show can be heard right here!
