Covered in Punk
Heidi passed along a promo copy of Portobello - Covered in punk, a few weeks ago in the belief that it was my type of tune. Although it took a few listens it is a wicked punky poppy number, vaguely along the same lines as Addicted to Bass. Radio 1 have just started using it on a trail, so hopefully it will be big. Have a listen out for it.

i saw Portobella last night at the camden barfly, and they absolutely rocked. I have no doubt they will be big !
ReplyDeletesaw them at barfly too, absolutely rocked. the lead singer has got real attitude. i hope they do well as their material was a breath of fresh air up against all this r&b thats flooded the market at the mo. hope to see alot more of them.
