Mach Bell's Daily Rock Journal!




Sept 20th. On this date in Mach history...sunny travel day for me and the Joe Perry Project’82. Cruising down to southern FL...in 1975 Thundertrain is back-at-school, this time at Framingham MA State College ... Thundertrain’78: night #2 of a two-fisted gig supporting The Dictators at the Paradise Theater in Boston MA....in 1983 a beer company invites me to judge a“Miss Hot-Bod Contest” at Narcissus in Kenmore Sq. Co-judging w/me is Dougie Thomson, bassman from the band Supertramp. I have absolutely no recollection of how this cultural event turns out. But we probably had fun.

Indie Scene Spotlight 

Beatie Wolfe!

"Beatie Wolfe is one of the most exciting voices in British music. Her powerful vocals, retro medleys and lyrics make her sound instantly recognizable. Until now, she’s been a well-kept secret. But that’s all about to change, for yesterday she launched her debut album 8ight – and very fine it is, too. Rich, smooth, velvety – yes, it sounds like a fine claret, but somehow that’s an apt comparison. It’s so full-bodied it’s practically 3D. If this is the future of music, we want in" - Gentleman's Journal 

Pioneering young talent, Beatie Wolfe, is mixing retro with futuristic for her debut album 8ight, by combining a vinyl launch with a 3D Interactive Album Release. For the production of her album 8ight, Beatie has collaborated with leading tech wizards in the US, ensuring she’s the very first music artist globally to release her album as a 3D Interactive Album. This bold, innovative release unites great music with a new tangible art form and has won the young artist much critical acclaim and international coverage.

"If this is the future of music, we want in" - Gentleman's Journal

 Sonya Titus!


Houston-born and worldly-wise, Sonya Titus has lived in Australia, Norway, America, New Zealand, and now, London, UK. Her tracks are heavily-influenced by the multicultural shifting she has experienced whilst growing up. Reoccurring themes of self-worth and purpose, individuality, and ultimately love, acceptance, and celebration of humanity are at the heart of Sonya’s music.
There have been many albums written and inspired out of love but none compare to Sonya Titus’ debut album ‘Now’ (release date as yet unconfirmed – watch this space!), none express so many different dimensions of the human emotion with such an honest yet uplifting feel.
Sonya’s new single ‘Love Transfusion’ will be released 30 Sept via Red Dragon Records. The track, being the last one on the album, is about letting go of a relationship which was good in many ways but not the right ‘one’ and moving on…READ MORE!


NEW BOOK BY HUNTER S. JONES!!!

Hunter S. Jones

&

An Anonymous English Poet


Sometimes when you believe it’s the end, it’s only the beginning.

September Ends is a contemporary romance with erotic and supernatural elements bound together by poetry. It reveals the intricate web of passion and desire which entangles Liz Snow, Pete Hendrix and Jack O. Savage. The story is told through Liz Snow’s diary, Jack O. Savage’s poetry, and from letters sent across the Atlantic. Traveling throughout the lushness of a summertime in Tennessee and Georgia, September Ends journeys into the elegance of London’s West End and is finally settled in the countryside of Cornwall, England, a decade later.



September Ends is a story of sin, redemption and salvation through love

because love happens when we least expect it.
