Cousin Jac, Believe Me To Remain. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

There are those who are quick to judge without considering exactly what it is that makes an artist tick. The spark of idea, the small germ of a notion that takes root and multiplies until it cannot be contained, a concept that takes over every waking moment; all are seen to some as just an impulse in which to suggest that an artist and their work is of less value to society than almost anyone else, that what they do is too easy, perhaps a cop-out from doing something else. Nothing in this world is further from the truth and for Jez Wing’s Cousin Jac, he is to be believed with every fibre of his being.

Jonny Walker, This Is Not Me. E.P. Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

There is an element of excitement, a shadow of lingering hopefulness that pervades the listener’s expectations when they hear a new artist for the first time. It can go disastrously wrong and the person who has invested their time and money may feel bitter about it for a while and then all things being equal move on to the next hopeful batch. There of course are the moments when an E.P. or an album just grabs them in a very unexpected and simple way, the joy of hearing something new is what makes it all worth-while.
