An interview special with London Bases Reggae band The Dualers
Tyber chatted to Dan Evans on the Reggae show the evenign before the release of
"Voices From the Sun"
The Dualers - Bio (from website)
Lead singer and founding member Tyber Cranstoun's love for Ska and Reggae music developed from a very early age. His father, Bill was a local promoter of Jamaican music in the 1960s and ran his Savoy Sound System at several locations in south London. After graduating from Guildhall School of Music and Drama, Tyber began busking with his brother Si Cranstoun on the streets of Canterbury and South London where his distinctive vocals and lively performances soon began to draw in large audiences. With an ever increasing fan base developing, Tyber seconded a group of musicians. Together they began writing their own songs and performing them live to audiences across the south-east.
They first hit the headlines when the single ‘Kiss on the Lips’ entered in to the UK charts at number 21 despite no industry or professional backing, the follow up single Truly Madly featured in full on the Hollywood blockbuster Fools Gold, the success continued with a number of album releases, several top 40 chart singles and an ever increasing large worldwide fan base behind them.
2019 saw the release of the hotly anticipated album, Palm Trees & 80 Degrees which stormed into the UK album chart at number 11, reached number 2 in the independent chart and number 1 in the reggae chart. Heralded as Britain’s finest Ska & Reggae band The Dualers continue to play to sell-out crowds all over the UK, Europe & Asia, they have also played their first Arena tour this year which saw the band headline Wembley Arena on 14th May. The brand new album Voices From The Sun will be released on 12th August.

Test Card Girl is the solo project that singer/songwriter Catherine Burgis has been working on since 2019. Based in Manchester, UK, Catherine decided to explore the depths of her creative mind after finding herself bored of living from administrative work. She began writing songs and doing stand-up comedy, which led to the release of her first single in September 2020. Her debut quickly gathered the attention of John Kennedy on Radio X and Steve Lamacq on BBC 6 Music (presented in the “Ones to Watch 2021” show). Receiving an Arts Council England Grant allowed her to work on her debut EP.
Influenced by artists such as Marika Hackman, Bon Iver and Tracy Chapman, Test Card Girl presents her second single, “If You’re Feeling Down”. After enjoying the electronic, synthwave elements present in her debut track, we are now delighted by this folk song, in which Catherine’s charming voice and acoustic guitar invite the listener to a state of profound calm and warmth. A track that feels like sunshine, with delicate vocals and sweet melodies that will leave you smiling, feeling uplifted… such a beautiful experience.

This week I spoke to Steve Bonham & The Long Road
Country band but not the country as you know it, they are Vagabonds doing it their way.
A varied background with Kev playing with bands such as Saxon, Steve brings the lyrical expertise and Chris his musical training, but all too often they cast that aside to free flow with passion
