We’re a bit late with one. Earlier this year we reviewed the brilliant; ‘Until the Traffic Stops’ by singer-songwriter Alex Cornish. Since then he’s embarked on a tour and is currently on ANOTHER one. Set to round off the year with even more dates dotted around the country through til the end of December, check below for listings!!

Recently releasing single ‘Untied’ Alex has gained massive exposure since the release of his remarkable album earlier this year. Gaining airplay on Radio 1 (and 2!!) all off his own back, recording the sensational album in a spare room and taking care of promotion and distribution independently. A rare showing of dedication is much welcome in today’s music industry and the upcoming live shows are a celebration of all his hard work.
