Other Lives.
My mum may be a nutjob but I love that she will call me just to tell me she heard a song on the radio that she thinks I would like. Turns out her recommendation of 'For 12' by Other Lives was a good'un as the band are becoming a pretty big deal, even my favourite music blogger Flying with Anna has just put them as one of her 'New Treats'; an achievement in itself. Their new album Tamer Animals will be available in the UK come end of August but you can listen to it free here. Zane Lowe is already a fan and if he likes them, you know they're cool.*
