It may seem that Terra Naomi has suddenly emerged fully formed but that seemingly ‘meteoric rise’ has been seven years in the making. Seven years on the hard shoulder, mopping up coffee dregs in Greenwich Village, trying to work a response from the drunk at the bar. Then, classic timing in catching the You Tube wave with video blogs and uploaded songs that led to her becoming a You Tube legend, winning an award for her song ‘Say Its Possible’ which generated 5 million plus global hits. The song, inspired by Al Gore’s ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ has come to symbolise the struggle for awareness on the threat of global warming. Gore himself has been sufficiently fired up by the song to ensure that Terra got a deserved shot at performing on a global platform when she took part at the recent Wembley leg of Live Earth. Now based in London, Terra has arrived with an array of songs that combine fragile beauty with an underlying grit. Having signed to Island Records, she has officially released ‘Say Its Possible’ as a downloadable single and her album will be out in the autumn. At a time when we increasingly question the relevance and integrity of what we’re doing, Terra is a reminder that life does not need to be a hollow shell – it can have substance too.

Now, we rock. Just check out the band rather than reading about us...

The Black Angels' psychedelically induced rock n' roll evokes the spirit of the 1960's while awakening the heavy droning rhythms inspired by The Velvet Underground. Picture a red moonlit night, deep in the heart of Texas, with the ghosts of Nico and Timothy Leary being called back from the dead to guide you on a journey through Heaven & Hell and back again. - (Read more)
