LINCOLN 👀 I’ve been thinking about this for a goo LINCOLN 👀I’ve been thinking about this for a good while now, and I feel like it’s finally time to put it out into the world…I really want to start putting on DIY gigs in Lincoln. The kind of nights that are welcoming and genuinely about the music and the people in the room.A big part of this comes from feeling a bit fed up of not having near enough shows like this on my doorstep — especially ones that actively centre female, non-binary and queer artists. So instead of waiting for it to exist, I’d love to try and build it myself.I’ve been to so many DIY gigs in other places recently, and the sense of community they create is something really special. It’s not just about watching bands — it’s about connection, discovery, and feeling like you’re part of something.And in a time where everything feels so online — and where things like AI are starting to creep more and more into music and creativity — I’m craving something real. I don’t just want to exist behind a screen anymore. I want to help create something in real life, where people can discover bands and artists the old school way and experience music together.My taste leans towards indie, alt, punk and rock, but more than anything I want this to be a space that feels inclusive, supportive, and exciting — whether you’re playing or in the crowd.I know there’s so much great music out there that doesn’t always get the space it deserves, especially at a local level. I’d love to help change that, even in a small way. So this is me starting that process 💭If you’re an artist/band that fits this (especially if you’re based in or around Lincoln/East Midlands area, etc), I’d genuinely love to hear from you. And if you’re someone who’d come to a night like this — please let me know. That kind of support means everything right now.Feel free to email helen@shemakesmusic.co.uk, and/or tag artists I should check out 🖤Let’s see if we can build something really special together! #LincolnMusic #LincolnshireBands #DIYgigs #ukAltScene #InclusiveLineups

🎧 Track of the Week 🎧 Our Track of the Week is 'K 🎧 Track of the Week 🎧Our Track of the Week is 'KILLSWITCH', the new single from rising alt-pop visionary @heyitsau_ra. The song is taken from her highly-anticipated upcoming debut album heartcore which is out June 26 via @polydorrecords. 'KILLSWITCH’ is a dark yet playful pop song about revenge and moving on, it opens with grungy, atmospheric production before bursting into a deceptively sweet, high-energy chorus, “And I’m so done carrying this baggage / Gonna make you disappear like magic,” she sings — before letting the memories she once shared with a character called THE MENTOR fade away. “’KILLSWITCH’ is about a conscious decision I made at some point to make the pain and anger stop,” Au/Ra explains.#newmusic #trackoftheweek #songoftheweek #musicblog ##musicblogger
