California is the last stop on the classic American dream highway of freedom. With its 352 days of annual sun and 840 miles of awe-inspiring Pacific coast-line, California is the birth place of LSD, free love and medical marijuana. This is the place where myth counts most. The Golden State, governed by the last of the ageing action heroes of my youth. Where else can one’s ‘grand performances’ of the silver screen be traded straight across for political office? Or where fading stars can chauffeur their maids/mistresses up and down the Strip in solar-powered military-grade SUVs?

With Valentine's Day only a week away, we've all got that one emotion on our minds whether we're taken or single: Love. Thus it only makes sense that The Shilohs infatuation-filled new indie pop record So Wild is out this week in anticipation of the holiday… whether they planned it or not! So Wild contains that jingle-jangly sound of out-and-out indie rock-ness that is the air that this Vancouver-based band breathes.

I should have known that Richard Thompson would be a musician that held a special place in my library of music, his father was a Scotland Yard detective. I have listened to Richard since his debut with my favourite group Fairport Convention. This is the man that gave us "Meet All On the Ledge", and "Crazy Man Michael" two great examples of electric folk.
