Rams' Pocket Radio
1+2

unsigned/Adventures in Gramaphone

WE SAY

The epic 1+2 picks up where Dieter Rams Has Got The Pocket Radios took off - stomping pianos and anthemic chorus intact - making for what is our favorite Rams' Pocket Radio release yet. This year has already seen Rams' AKA Peter McCauley play to over 100,000 as European tour support for Snow Patrol, named Sunday Times Culture Breaking Act last week, and set to grace our TVs as he appears on BBC2's The Review Show tomorrow night (March 30). As for radio, 1+2 is on the A-list at Q and Amazing Radio, with a live session to come on Xfm and a Radio 1 Maida Vale already recorded. A massively impressive plot for an unsigned artist that's going from strength to strength. Live video from Glastonbury.

London Gigs: April 28, Sundance Festival at the 02 SE10 // May 16, The Garage N5 (solo) // July 4 Hoxton Bar & Kitchen N1
