Profile: In Fear of Olive
Local favourites In Fear of Olive continue to raise their profile with an appearance on Clive Anderson's Loose Ends on Radio 4 this Saturday (21st May 2011).Their blues and country infused debut EP is brilliantly produced and full of sophisticated melody and musicianship, and can be heard on the band's website.
Upcoming gigs include Springboard Festival in Cottingham on 27th-29th May then Soyo Live in Sheffield on 13th June - we look forward to their next homecoming concert though!

Profile: Kiziah & The Kings
Described as a band with essential elements from soul, rock, reggae, pop and blues, Doncaster's own Kiziah and the Kings deserve your attention.Frontwoman Kiziah's big soulful voice evokes the sounds of past legends and is on full display on Baby Don't Go, their current single, which shows they have the energy and groove to match strong melody.
An appearance on Look North and support of well backed Californians The Like aside, a deeper delve into Kiziah & The Kings's material reveals virtuosity as well as variety - elements which surely mean more recognition in 2011.
Baby Don't Go is available from Amazon and iTunes and a series of gigs are currently being planned - these are ones to keep an eye on!

Profile: The Hottest State
Up and coming Doncaster band The Hottest State are heavily influenced by many styles of American rock music and aspire to build upon the legendary characteristics, sound and style of various such iconic artists and songwriters.
They have developed their own commercial rock sound with accessible lyrics and a strong melodic hooks which aim to make rock DJs think again before giving airplay to another major label, million dollar artist; instead, their listeners can enjoy genuine, self crafted songs by a band devoted to its love for music.
The Hottest State have enjoyed recent exposure on BBC regional television and radio as well as local radio station and newspaper interviews, and also have had excerpts from their songs used in radio commercials.
The band are continuously developing new songs and have currently released a new studio EP available from global digital distributors such as iTunes and Amazon. The band are keen ambassadors for live music and are often out on the road performing at established music venues throughout the year.

The Hottest State play at Doncaster Rovers versus Ipswich Town at the Keepmoat Stadium on 15th February, then at Vintage Rockbar on 25th February.
