Reciprocate, Wild Island

Reciprocate (London)
A touch & feel power-trio, Reciprocate write romantic soul ballads and play them with an intense feel at high volume. Vibrato style guitar, very stirred drumming and feel-ridden bass back up the earnest singing of self-penned love songs.

Wild Island (Oxford)
idiosyncratic guitar picking and freewheeling drums. eloquent instrumentals and nonplussed songs. Minimalist and ambient approach. some kind of bastard outsider folk.
