And recently, that&#8217;s been quite a lot (sorry Jools). However, occasionally it throws something interesting at us. And a couple of weeks ago,\u00a0that something was up and coming Stockport band, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blossomsband.co.uk\">Blossoms.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Relatively new (in terms of the music industry), they&#8217;ve already been bagged as support band by The Coral, The Charlatans and more recently, Kasabian.\u00a0Along with their spot on Jools&#8217; show (well done boys!) this should have gained them a whole new fanbase. They do\u00a0a nice line in\u00a0psychedelic indie pop and it&#8217;s shaping up to be the sound of the summer.<\/p>\n<p>There are some\u00a0EP&#8217;s already available but a number of the tracks on these will also make an appearance on their self titled debut album due out on 5th August. If you pre-order it <a href=\"https:\/\/store.blossomsband.co.uk\/*\/MUSIC\/\">her<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/store.blossomsband.co.uk\/*\/MUSIC\/\">e<\/a>\u00a0on CD or vinyl, it will arrive signed by the band and you will also be entered into a competition to win tickets to a special homecoming gig. In Stockport, obviously.<\/p>\n<p>If you missed Jools, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RWVb4xi-wZg\">here<\/a>&#8216;s one of their songs from the show.
