Band Love

Hey guys,

My main passion is music and especially modern rock and have wanted to work within the music business for a while now especially with touring, live music events and PR because if feel having the correct image, brand but most importantly message from artists is the best way to communicate with their fans. Whenever I go to gigs each band I see I have all the emotions I have ever felt from their music rush through me and it feels amazing and it's a common bond I share with fellow fans and the band. So I am going to go through my favourite bands of all time. 

You Me At Six 

 It all started off in my nans house in 2010 before their Southampton Guildhall gig listening to Save It For The Bedroom and instantly was hooked. As they grew with their albums and music I grew up in life listening to their music and their songs relate to something in my life and means a lot. Being frank they are the main motive and inspiration to work within the music company as every gig I go to of theirs I always have the connection with every other fan of why we love them. From Cardiff to Plymouth, Southampton, Reading Festival, London and many more gigs I've been to I always feel like I can by myself. Their recent album Cavalier Youth is incredible it's very different to Sinners Never Sleep and their previous albums but artists need to change their music as life changes but their characteristics live on and is honestly insane there is no other word for it! So if there is any tiny possibility that they read this blog thank you for being amazing inspirations, I hope I get the opportunity to meet you, and PLEASE DJ at District in Bournemouth and if you ever do you'll thank me cause it's an awesome night and I'll show you the signature cocktail Donkey Kong! 

Deaf Havana

Although there was a sad departure from the group these boys are insane, started being a fan from 2011 and loved them from the start. First seeing them in Bath then Reading Festival their music adapted and their music got soooo good. My favourite has to be Fools and Worthless Liars with their alternative version is so diverse and amazing the use of acoustics shows off their skills and characteristics of the band. I recently met James and Max at District in Bournemouth, and they were genuine lovely guys made sure they had time to chat and had a really awesome conversation with them. They were up for a laugh and did an awesome DJ set as well. Although everyone needs to check out Friends Like These their early work but also their new work as well because the difference is amazing but still show how good they are. 

Don Broco

Adoration is the only word I have for these guys. I've seen them in Plymouth, London and Reading Festival and each time I swear they get better. I have developed a majorly be for these guys their recent album is so different yet contains the same type of sounds but just a edge of different style Superlove is my favourite of their new album but their older stuff I would recommend is Whole Truth, Priorities and you know what just listen to every song because they rock in every one! I recently met Matt at Distrixt again in Bournemouth and he was so friendly and made time for everyone even though it was so hectic due to the launch of the club night. Now all I need to do is meet Tom, Rob and Simon! 

These bands are my life and my motivation to work in the music business.

David Bowie

It's a sad day for the world and the music industry,

Today we all received the sad news of David Bowie's passing at age 69.

A creator and an individual with many talents known to everyone as an actor but for me and many others a massive influencer for rock music in the 1970's.

Known for his eccentric artistic visual and attitude he shaped the glam rock industry under the name Ziggy Stardust. With his hits such as Starman and Space Oddity there is no question that his legacy will live on. 

He as well as many other has shaped music today and will never be forgotten even continuing to work up until his passing he is a true inspiration to all of us. 

Although it is a sad day we can learn a lot from his life. For me one of his quotes that to many has meant a lot. 

A touching statement I feel, as we can't question what the future holds so we may as well embrace it and do what ever we like with it and be creative just like David was. 

Rest peacefully David,

You made such an impact. 

Wish List January 2016

Hey guys!

Can't believe its been so long since my last post but basically I've been working hard on my assignments, my new job and revision for my exams! 

A nervous time but it's made me realise I love blogging and shouldn't stop! 

So whilst an Ebook is being downloaded for some reading I am starting this blog post! 

I've worked hard over the Christmas period and I want to treat myself! I've budgeted my money for savings but I need to treat myself! 

My birthday is next month and I have booked myself a booth at a local nightclub which I am really looking forward to do I can start my twenties in style! But after my rent is paid I have decided to treat myself to the following items! 

Obviously my love for shopping hasn't changed but unfortunately my favourite black ripped jeans has got a rip on it in a very funny yet awful placed (right under the bum) don't know how but clearly I wear them too much! So back to topshop to buy these beauties! 

Right after my last blog post my best friend Chloe came to visit and we went out! When we go out we always have the best times and have the best stories we just get each other so well! Somehow as I took an unfortunate tumble off of a sofa (again don't ask how I blame the prosecco!) my bronzer fell out and I miss it! So bronzer and topshop glow pot is another item I need! I recently bought a few highlighters and NARS translucent setting powder and it's the best makeup I have used so need a few things to compliment them! 

I NEED this dress! My birthday falls on a Wednesday and the nightclub I am going to it's a student event so dress code is casual but it's my 20th and this dress from Missguided is gorgeous as its my favourite colour black and I own no other colours I need this dress soon! 

How lush are these sunglasses from ASOS?! okay, I know it's winter but by March it will be sunny and I am a summer girl and I really want a nice selection of sunglasses and these are so lush! Think these will suit my edgy fashion style! 

Yes I know this isn't a product but I need the sassy personality of Pia Mia. I am seriously girl crushing right now! She has the most amazing tan and I always use fake tan so I need to purchase more, her eyebrows are insane and I need mine waxed and tinted again! She also looks so fit it's unreal so I really wanna continue with my fitness but also yoga and meditation to feel good about myself! 

Quite ironic my saying that as I am about to stuff my face with a dominoes but it's been a tough day! However I do have lots of healthy food in my fridge to indulge in tomorrow! 

So good to be blogging again! 

Thinking my next blog post will be about yoga and meditation and how it's helped me! 

Bye xo

District

Hey guys, 

One of my passions as you might know is rock music! In Bournemouth you do get occasional gigs and a club called Sound Circus which has a wide range of rock music and mainly metal music! I am also part of the Rock and Indie Society which I couldn't take part in first year due to illness and coursework I had to do! But last monday the main Student Club The Old Firestation launched their new weekly Rock Music Event where the DJ's for the evening was Matt and Simon from Don Broco! I am a massive fan of Don Broco so this was the main thing I was excited for also to meet the rest of the society!

Me and my housemate Chloe started the night off at Inferno a bar next to the event meeting everyone before going to the club. Being the fan girls that we are we were first in queue and right at front of the barriers, we didn't bother getting a drink because we actually wanted to enjoy the night but the atmosphere already was electric and we met so many people and had conversations with and shared our stories of gigs which you don't tend to do on normal nights out. 

The night started out with the DJ warming up for Don Broco, Ryan Stannik, his set was so good and he was such a good host and played a great variety of music. One of the guys working for District came to me and my housemate Chloe and told us Don Broco weren't on for another 90 minutes because we were waiting all night (no shame) but we stayed enjoying the music and atmosphere! Then we spotted Matt and Simon making their way to the stage and lucky me I got a photo with Matt and it was one of the best moments of my life! Just to meet one of my favourite musicians just made everything worth the wait. They're set also was amazing, everyone singing along to their favourite songs made the whole experience just magical and so much fun!

District had a competition unknown to me and Chloe and chose their 3 favourite photos and whichever got the most likes the two people in the photos won Bring Me The Horizon tickets! They chose the funniest and most unflattering picture of me and Chloe singing like we were in the choir and we WON! It was such a funny moment but it showed that we were in the moment!

District have so many events on including free pizza night tonight which I wish I could go to however I have other commitments however I will be going most mondays that I am in Bournemouth! 

Thank you District for bringing rock music into Bournemouth student scene! 

So any rock fans out there in Bournemouth or Southampton go check District out!

If not in Bournemouth im sure theres some night like this!
