CocknBullKid's Yellow + Covered Off videos & festival dates

After such brilliant across the board reactions to her first ever full length album, Miss Blay has undoubtedly proved her worth and cemented her status as one of this year’s most talented and refreshing UK pop prospects. ‘Yellow’ is the next single to be released on August 8 and is the perfect soundtrack to the summer as Anita embarks on her festival appearances at Glastonbury, headlining the Lake Stage at Latitude, Underage, Field Day and Reading & Leeds. CocknBullKid has also been busying herself with her inspired Covered Off series of videos in which she joins forces with fellow musicians to record their version of a favourite track. The first Covered Off saw Clare Maguire singing Plan B’s She Said over a cuppa, the second was with Anita’s part collaborator on the album Gonzales, and the third sees Eliza Doolittle and Anita smashing Destiny’s Child’s Bills Bills Bills in a hair salon.

CHORDS, RIFFS, TABS AND TURN-AROUNDS

Gospel, Jazz, Folk, Country, Rock, Soul, B-Bop, Funk, Rhythm & Blues, Punk and Pop, it all came "Out of the Blues" . On the Focus Music page we aim to take a look at the journey popular music has made through the decades with links to influential artists of each era. Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday and original Blues men including Robert Johnson, Edward Son House, Skip James and Mississippi John Hurt made their way north from the American deep South and brought the "Blues" to a wider American audience. This in turn lead to the birth of "Rock and Roll" in the 50s with artists such as Bill Haley, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry and Little Richard. "The Beatles" were inspired by the great guitar riffs of Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry and Little Richard's soulful sound and "Rhythm and Blues" burst onto the UK music scene in the 60s spawning the "Mersey Beat Sound" and "Beatlemania" and the rest they say is Hi...

With the excitement surrounding the release on Florence + The Machine’s second album reaching fever pitch, here’s ‘Shake It Out’ - the massive lead single to be taken from ‘Ceremonials’ . Where ‘What The Water Gave Me’ dramatically played out like an ode to the ocean and is magnificent powers, ‘Shake It Out’ incites a desire to jump up and dance fervently, shaking off the shackles of a persistent mood, feeling or indeed hangover, as, she points out, “it’s hard the dance with the devil on your back so shake it out”.
