This is where YOU find your NEXT favourite band. 3 top acts with 3 top tunes on this weeks podcast as Jim Salveson heads down to the new music mines and drags another collection of diamonds to the surface. Shining bright this week...

Man/Woman/Chainsaw: Man/Woman/Chainsaw always have the ability to surprise, with a chameleon-like knack for becoming whatever kind of band they want to be. Creative, arty and gloriously unpredictable, they blur the lines between chaos and melody with an imagination few bands can match.

Junior VP: US college rock put through a Glasgow filter. Junior VP make fun, anthemic tunes packed with big guitars, bigger hooks and just enough emo heart to keep things interesting. For fans of Jimmy Eat World, Death Cab For Cutie and anyone who misses the glory days of 2000s indie.

Riley Marsh: An artist who showed so much promise 12 months ago and is now delivering on it. Blending folk, grunge and alternative rock influences, Riley Marsh writes with a maturity beyond his years, pairing thoughtful storytelling with the kind of raw emotion that makes every song feel personal.
