Playlist montage - August 2019Another busy month for music with a load of new music topped off with the longest running festival in the Channel Islands, the Vale Earth Fair, means another packed playlist.

From and inspired by the Earth Fair is music from The King Blues, The Wakes and Lifejacket.

Byzanthian Neckbeard is here after a storming live show earlier in the month while I have some Mayhem after a screening of Lords Of Chaos and Black Sabbath after I finally got around to watching their final concert, The End.

On top of that there’s brand new stuff from IDLES and Frank Turner and to mark 50 years of Woodstock there’s Joan Baez.

And simply because I heard it for the first time this month Eels’s punked up version of their own I Like Birds.
