Western Star capture the beating heart of the current rockin’ scene. We asked label boss Alan Wilson to handpick some of his favourite tracks from the current roster. ‘These are not covers bands or revival/copy/tribute bands,’ says Alan. ‘They are writing their own material but in a ‘50s style, they are so convincing at what they do.’
