Nightshift Magazine is back for February. Total legend!

In an age where the word Legend is so devalued you only have to get a round in to have it bestowed on you, the first Nightshift of 2025 finds us in the company of an actual Oxford music legend in the form of Adam Franklin from SWERVEDRIVER.

Read what Adam has to say about his band's enduring legacy, being listed as one of the greatest Fender players of all time - despite being allergic (not averse, actually allergic) to Fenders - being acclaimed as the most underrated guitarist of the 90s, and counting Pixies among his fans.

It's online now here -https://nightshiftmag.co.uk/2025/feb.pdf

Elsewhere, there's an Introducing feature on CHROME HORSE DIPLOMATS, a promoter piece on MECHANICAL ANIMALS and a two-page review of IN A DIFFERENT PLACE.

There's also a gig guide. A place you can find out where future legends are playing before they have that status conferred upon them. I'll be there. If you buy me a pint I'll happily call you a legend.

Now you've all had just about enough time to recover, you can relive the memories you would have had if you hadn't been having such a great time.

The last Nightshift Magazine is out - the year is officially over ... apart from a load of gigs in the listings pages, including In A Different Place 2024: Pecq, Flights Of Helios, Emma Hunter and lots more - count how many of the performers are in the Tracks of Our Year (and how many of IADP 2023 performers)

It's the end of November so it must be the end of the year, right? Wrong obviously, but it is the last Nightshift of 2024 - online now athttps://nightshiftmag.co.uk/2024/dec.pdf - where we celebrate our favourite Oxford music of the year in a Top 30 style.

Time to find out what's THE BEST OXFORD SONG OF THE YEAR! And the second best Oxford song of the year! And so on and so forth!

Without giving too much away, however many venues they steal from us, Oxford continues to produce some cracking music.

Elsewhere there's an Introducing feature on Rich Rainford, we have a chat with Banbury promoter Chris Oakes from Strummer Room Records, there's six pages of local gig reviews and five pages of gigs for the month ahead. Two months in fact since we've even included January in the gig guide. Not much happens in January as you can see from that bit of the gig guide. There won't be a January Nightshift for that and various other reasons. We'll be back in February. Like the coffee creams in your festive chocolate assortment, we're difficult to get rid of.

Keep supporting grassroots music everyone.

New autumnly coloured Nightshift Magazine featuring the wonderful and tireless Tiger Mendoza. Be sure to check it out!

Top scientists* estimate that by the year 2027 TIGER MENDOZA will have collaborated with every musician on the Oxford music scene, and that by 2031 there won't be a person in Oxfordshire who hasn't featured on or remixed a Tiger Mendoza record. At which point he's going to start collaborating with local animals, including actual tigers**.

Mr Mendoza's latest collaboration is with the very talented HELEN PEARSON and you can read what he had to say about their new double single, and much, much more, in the new issue of NIGHTSHIFT, which has just gone online athttps://nightshiftmag.co.uk/2024/nov.pdf

And because I don't just throw this stuff together***, you can also read an Introducing feature on the excellent iiis, who just happen to feature Helen Pearson in their mighty ranks.

What else? There's a Promotermouth feature on BOSSAPHONIK, who've been bringing a world of jazz dance to Oxford for 20 years now and aren't going to stop dancing any time soon; there's a tribute to CHRIS BIRD who tragically left us this month; there are reviews, there is news, there are previews and there are a whopping SIX PAGES OF GIGS FOR NOVEMBER****.

So crack on and have a read - I spent my entire Sunday finishing the issue off so the least you can do is pay attention. Happy gig going everyone; let's keep this town buzzing*****

* - me and Martha the Nightshift cat, who's currently sat partway across my keyboard
** - Martha the Nightshift cat likes to believe she is an actual tiger; in reality she is a piglet-suet pudding hybrid
*** - Actually I do, often after a couple of bottles of wine
**** - Yes, I am shouting, but I feel this bit needs particular emphasis, else you might miss something really good and then I'll have to bore you to death about how I saw it when it only cost a tenner rather than the £120 plus add-ons you're now spending to see it at Wembley. From half a mile away. On a screen. In the rain.
***** - But maybe not with actual bees as they need to save their energy for their 2031 collaboration with Tiger Mendoza.

Keep supporting live music people - going to gigs makes you sexy and cool. I mean, just look at me.
