As you probably know, the wonderful Golden Fable are playing The Wireless on February 24th. What you may not know is that they recently released this video for Always Golden. Check it out, it’s wonderful.

Our final video from last Friday’s Wireless comes courtesy of Robyn Underwood. Robyn, who you may recognise from the café, played a short set of beguiling original material early in the night to a hushed crowed. Here she plays Gill

Our second “One Song. One Camera. One Take.” is now live for the pleasure of your eyes and ears.

Alex Lipinski hides away in the Cha Cha Cha office to warm up his vocal chords pre-gig with a full bodied rendition of his track Hurricane.

It’s our first ever “One Song, One Camera, One Take” session! The rules: we take an act playing at the Wireless and pull them aside to play us a track of their choosing while we point a camera at them. No second chances, no fancy set up.

First up we have All We Are performing a bombastic version of When Will We Be Married? out in the cold night air of Cassiobury Park. Leaving the instruments indoors, the band opted for just vocals and drum for what turned out to be a rousing version of this old classic.

We’ll have second 1S.1C.1T session from Alex Lipinski for you later this week.

If you missed The Wireless last night, here’s a video of how it went down. We had All We Are, Alex Lipinski and Robyn Underwood all performing amazing sets. A massive thanks to them and all that attended for making our 2012 return one to remember.

Keep them peeled for more videos and exclusive sessions from the night.

They say bad news come in threes. We don’t agree with that at The Wireless. We believe that it’s good news that comes bundled as a trio. Here’s a prime example:

1. It’s The Wireless tonight! As you probably know by now: Alex Lipinski, All We Are, music quiz, Cha Cha Cha café, Watford, 8pm. We can’t wait.

2. Neil Young has announced that he’s back working with Crazy Horse and that 2012 could see the release of two whole albums. Exciting times.

3. Ben Folds has announced that the band are getting back together “Fo sho”. We can expect new material this year.

As a bonus point, we don’t know if this is good news or not. Matthew Broderick has confirmed that he is to reprise his role as Ferris Bueller.

Tom Billington is a familiar face at The Wireless. The Mohair man has played a couple of times for us now and he always brings with him both talent and charm in equal measure.

The last time Tom played for us he showcased a few numbers from his upcoming album As Luck Would Have It. Well, that album isn’t so upcoming any more. It’s available on digitally via iTunes on the 13th of next month and, for those of you who like something more tangible, you can buy the CD right now from Tom’s online store.

If can’t wait to wrap your ears around it then you’re in luck. Tom has made the whole album available to stream using this handy bit of internet magic. Enjoy.
