DRAKE GIG

Last Sunday I was lucky enough to have tickets for me and Frankie to go and see Drake for the Liverpool date of his Club Paradise tour in the UK. In the US, Kendrick Lamar and ASAP Rocky were supporting but here in the UK, Labrinth was down to support but we ended up seeing Rita Ora performing as his support act. Drake definitely did not disappoint. Here is footage i shot of some of the performance including the opening and the track he released his latest music video for 'HYFR' excuse the off automated focusing of the camera!

COACHELLA: FRANK OCEAN


The annual festival Coachella, taking place in Indio, California is back again this year and currently in full swing right this minute. Last night, the first night of music kicked off with such names at M83, Swedish House Mafia, GIRLS, Datsik, Madness, Arctic Monkeys, Kendrick Lamar to name a few, and (personally) one of the best artists performed this first night, Frank Ocean and despite some sound issues, he managed to put on an impressive performance and his voice sounded amazing. This is the live set from Frank last night from the 'GOBI' stage.

Other artists performing this weekend include (today): ASAP Rocky, Miike Snow, Borgore, Azealia Banks, Childish Gambino, Bon Iver, David Guetta, Manchester Orchestra, Sub Focus, Mt Eden... (Tomorrow): The Weeknd, Nero, Santigold, AraabMUZIK, The Gaslamp Killer, Lissie, Flux Pavillion & Dr P, Calvin Harris, Florence & The Machine and thats just a handful. With its fair share of hip hop, indie, dubstep and electronic the lineup is impressive this year.
