A big Amplifier congratulation goes out to Tim, whom we work with, and Jodie on the arrival of Xavier to their family yesterday morning.
In music news Fat Freddy's have announced some tour dates in May & June and we've just updated and added a bunch of their older tunes we haven't had on the site before. Also headed out on the road are Scribe and Savage who are performing together over April & May so mark those dates in your diary now.
