I must admit that I hadn’t heard of English band One Last Run until we received a link to their new album “Unbreakable” from Rage PR. I liked the band’s sound as soon as I checked out the video for the album’s title track and quickly decided to download the album. I played “Unbreakable” on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 6th May; which was the same date as the album was released.

English band Skarlett Riot released their latest EP “Sentience” on 2nd May. I’ve been a fan of the band since picking up their previous EP “We Are The Brave” in early 2015, though the band have been around since 2010. Skarlett Riot released their debut album “Tear Me Down” in 2013, having already played Download and Bloodstock following the success of the EP “Villain”. They’ve supported or toured with some great bands, including most recently Gus G and Devilskin.
I arranged to chat with lead singer Chloe Drinkwater (aka Skarlett) via Skype on 5th May and you can hear what she had to say on the Friday NI Rocks Show that was broadcast on 13th May. We also play 4 tracks by Skarlett Riot. That Show is available on our MixCloud page - https://www.mixcloud.com/upload/NIRocks/interview-with-skarlett-from-skarlett-riot-on-the-friday-ni-rocks-show-13th-may-2016/complete/

And, that sense of rockin' style came through in spades, with an aural attack that left everyone grinning.
