Someone You Should Know: Emily Burns

Over the weekend, I spent a good amount of time in the countryside. On my final night, we went to an interesting nightclub in Rugby called The Vault. This place was buzzing with people all talking about one person, which happened to be Emily Burns. I knew she was good, but did not expect her amazing voice accompanied by only a guitar to bring the club together in the way it did.  This I have to say, was a great way to end what already was an amazing day! My favourite song of the night was called 'Plasters, Glitter and Glue'. This song was not the most popular song that she played, but it was my favourite. I cannot wait to hear more from her... I will keep you posted.

A Child Once Is A Child Forever

They say that you should work as hard as you play, but it seems that once we hit a certain age we try so hard not to be embarrassed that we forget to have fun. I have concluded this is why I usually end up on a Mary-Go-Round by myself whenever I go out with friends. I can see in their eyes that they want to be on it too, but they are all too 'suave' to join me in my fun. You can call me childish, immature and maybe even mentally disturbed, but I'm the girl smiling and having a nice time while you stand at the corner with puckered lips, phone in hand, gazing deeply into the distance. To be fair, at my age, I should probably be the latter, but I know that deep in my heart there is child surrounded my all this self inflicted maturity that I try to maintain on weekdays. Will you unleash your inner child?

Underage Festival

After a long week relaxing with my friends in Leicestershire, I got the urge to go to a festival. 'The Underage Festival' fit in perfectly with my schedule and I thought I saw Vampire Weekend on the list. Even though Vampire weekend did not play, it was literally swell. A toast to that day!

Now Your Just Somebody That I Used To Know..


This song reminds me of one of my own relationships. It began very sweet and lovely and ended with an awkward glance when we happened to brush into each other. I always found relationships strange; you go from 'in love' to ' Somebody That I Used To Know' in a split second.

If you have never heard of Gotye, please check him out and then check Kimbra out. These two artists have definitely made it clear that Australia is moving up in the world.
