Shambolics – “Dancing On The Streets Of Raith”
Hailing from Fife and Glasgow-based, this Scottish rock band was formed in 2018 by school friends Darren Forbes and Lewis McDonald. The additional line-up has changed a few times over the years. Known for their energetic live shows, they’ve played sold-out headline shows at venues like The Garage and King Tut’s, as well as festivals such as Isle of Wight, TRNSMT and LeeStock. Inspired by Oasis, The Stone Roses and Arctic Monkeys, they released their debut “Chasing A Disaster” in 2019.
Written as a homage to their hometown Kirkcaldy, their new single is filled with genuine nostalgia and pride. Adopted by local football team Raith Rovers and with their rock roots still present, this song is layered with a touch of Scottish folk. Inviting us on their trip down memory lane is a mellow acoustic guitar, before upping the ante with rolling drums and imposing electric guitars. And with a rich bagpipes section and his sentimental vocals, this glorious anthem sounds monumental.

From her album “Young, Gifted And Black” (1972):Fitz & The Tantrums – “Young Days”
From their album “Man On The Moon” (2025):Lydia von Hof – “She”
Originally from Long Island, NY, this singer and songwriter has been fanatic about music her whole life. She started classical piano lessons aged 6 and began composing aged 10. At 16 she ventured into performing at local venues and entering competitions. These led to her performing at Madison Square Garden and at the Hard Rock Café in Boston. Now based in Nashville, TN, she’s attended Belmont University studying songwriting. She released her debut “Find Me There” in 2021.
Exploring a different kind of love, her new single is not a love letter to a lover but to a true friend. Taken from her recently released EP “The Strange, The Unusual”, she lyrically explains the overwhelming feelings attached to seeing that special person after a long time apart. Drawing us in with mighty electric guitar strums, the song blends punchy pop with raw rock. With driving percussion and her authentic vocals, this hardy groove is filled with refreshing honesty and pure sonic pizzazz.
