Hidden Shoal have just released the new album from continent spanning three piece, The Caseworker (Switzerland, USA and UK).

Paul, Grace, Meaghan, Chris and Dan from Morning Claws met in Belfast, Northern Ireland and became great friends who were musically and artistically happy in each other’s company. So they decided to start a band and sought the same harmony in their music. The whole thing went wonderfully well. They created an intricate blend of electronic and indie music and they called it Morning Claws. Download their new single here!

Low-Rise is a precarious assemblage of free-standing stacks of staples representing a complex city skyline.

Sometime in 2010, the folks behind Dirty Dishes had the slightly silly idea of using cheeky vintage photos and putting them on dinner plates.
