Piqued Jacks – Romantic Soldier

Italian award-winning funk-rock band Piqued Jacks are now based in Austin, TX. The band describe their sound in their own words: “being able to speak without impediment; having sex in the most intense way possible; expressing ourselves 100%”. An impressive opening statement, almost as impressive as the music they have been producing since 2006.

Ennui – Shackles

Ennui is a six piece pop/rock band from Gothenburg, who formed last year and have come an impressive way since. Their latest offering, ‘Shackles’, has a hilarious video attached to it.
