The end to another week is always bittersweet. We’re sad to say goodbye to Up and Down by Chad Valley as our Track of the Week and just as sad to bid farewell to Plant Plants as out artist of the week, but we’ve got a bit of Facebook Friday action for you – we’re talking romance and proposals, in honour of Team Amazing Breakfast’s favourite associate member, Charlie Ashcroft popping the question to his lovely lady, we thought we’d get a few of your awesome proposal stories. If that’s not enough to wash away those blues, we’ve also got an interview with Slow Club! Best Friday ever?

In addition to another great tune from Plant Plants and another opportunity to shake your booty to Up and Down by Chad Valley, we’re also chatting to another excellent comedian – this week we’re speaking to the very charming Matt Green. Matt also introduced Team Amazing Breakfast to some awesome new music in the form of Laish what a great guy! You can tell him how awesome you think he is on Twitter.

Every Wednesday we speak to our Artist of the Week, and today it’s the turn of Howie from the very awesome Plant Plants – he gave us all the details on how they’re working with one of the guys from Simian Mobile Disco and life in the Plant Plants garden. We’ve also got another spin of Up and Down our Track of the Week from Chad Valley!

Another day, another awesome musical guest! As well as more great tunes from Chad Valley, as well as more from Plant Plants, and as well as the usual Twitter Tuesday shenanigans, we’ve got great company throughout the week this week on Amazing Breakfast – today is the turn of the wonderful Peggy Sue – formerly Peggy Sue and the Pirates, and we thought asking them the same mundane questions about their new album as everyone else…but there’s no fun in that, is there? Georgie has an alternative approach up her sleeve…

Georgie’s back from Secret Garden Party…with a wheelbarrow full of interviews in tow! Bit of Alpines for you this morning? A sprig of Joana & the Wolf, perhaps? To go with your usual assortment of new music in the form of a new Track of the Week Chad Valley and a new Artist of the Week  in the form of Plant Plants, of course. Dig in.

It’s the end of the week, so that means it’s time to say goodbye to our fantastic Track of the Week – Time Stretcher by Treefight For Sunlight and also to our equally fantastic Artist of the Week Spokes hopefully we’ll find a way of squeezing both of them into the shows again soon though! As it’s Friday that also means Facebook Friday and this week we wanted to hear all about your tiny moments of TV superstardom – were you ‘that guy’ who was interviewed, outraged outside a football stadium? Been an extra or had an awesome cameo in something? Were you spotted in the crowd on the Glasto coverage? We want to know! Head over to our Facebook Page and we’ll relate the tale of your glorious TV debut to the nation!

We’ve got more from Spokes and another play of Time Stretcher by Treefight For Sunlight and, of course, a comedian on the show today! This week we caught up with Richard Sandling and he told us all his love of movies, appearing in Peep Show, his Edinburgh show, and Georgie just couldn’t resist chatting to him about Essex…

Every Wednesday we take up the opportunity to speak to our Artist of the Week and this week it’s the turn of exceptionally lovely gent, Matt Baty, drummer from Spokes! Matt spoke to us all about how the band started out, plans for the future, and the emotional trauma of accidently chucking a tenner out in the bin. Don’t worry Matt, we’ve got another spin of Time Stretcher by Treefight For Sunlight to ease your pain.

In addition to another spin of Time Stretcher by Treefight For Sunlight and more from the wonderful Spokes it’s also Twitter Tuesday! This week we’re talking all about frivolous purchases – those things you’ve bought that you wanted…but didn’t really need…have you splurged on an iPad recently? Is there a life-sized model of Darth Vader sitting in your living room? Do you have no more cupboard space left to house your shoe collection? Let us know!

Another day, another dollar, another set of awesome new music to showcase for you! This week we’re putting the lovely Spokes on the podium as our Artist of the Week and have an awesome new Track of the Week from Bella Union’s Treefight For Sunlight – we’re a lot in love with their song Time Stretcher and suspect you will be too!

It’s the final show of the week, and that means the final play for our awesome Track of the Week by Stepdad and Beautiful One – the final track from Beat Radio which Brian mentioned to us in Wednesday’s interview! This and a bit of Facebook Friday action should set you up right for the weekend. This week we’re thinking about bands. Everyone’s had a little fantasy of being in a band, deep down. If you could be in a band – any band, past or present – who would it be? Ever wished you were a Beatle? Would you have been a Spice Girl? Or would you rather have rocked out with Metallica? Let us know!

Thursdays are funny, and this week we had a lovely visit from writer, presenter, comedian and general polymath, Danny Wallace. DANNY WALLACE! He gave us the skinny on his new book More Awkward Situations For Men and…well, we could say more, but that would be spoiling it. As if that wasn’t enough, we’ve got another track from Artist of the Week Beat Radio and another play of My Leather, My Fur, My Nails by Stepdad as well. You don’t have to be Danny Wallace to say YES to that!

We’ve got another play of our fantastic Track of the Week from Stepdad and we’re also speaking to the exceptionally charming Brian, mastermind of our marvellous Artist of the Week Beat Radio. Brian gave us a potted history of the band, what they’re up to at the moment, the story behind their brilliant track Everything Follows and we also couldn’t resist asking him what it was like being on the New York Scene, of course!

Ah, the internet. Full of great, informative things, full of pretty horrific things, full of cat pictures, and full of terrifically random blogs, tumblrs, and websites, devoted to incredibly specific and incredibly silly things. Maybe you’ve seen Kim Jong Il Looking At Things? or perhaps Glum Councillors? Though Team Amazing Breakfast aren’t entirely sure what possesses people to start them, we’re glad they exist. So, for Twitter Tuesday we want to know which brilliantly random blogs you’ve come across! Tweet us your favourites. All this and more from Beat Radio and another spin of My Leather, My Fur, My Nails by Stepdad too.

A bit of transatlantic awesomeness with your cornflakes? Oh, go on then, just a sprinkle, though. It may have been a week since American Independence Day, but we seem to still be just a bit infatuated with all things American. Both our new Artist of the Week and our Track of the Week have come to us from across the pond, and we’ve got no complaints!

Our Track of the Week is some synthy-pop sunshine music from Stepdad with their killer tune My Leather, My Fur, My Nails and Artist of the Week is some laidback brilliance from Beat Radio – you might have heard us playing Everything Follows – tune in for more!

Georgie is away, and the legend that is Charlie Ashcroft is othewise engaged, Colin and Matt are still wreaking havoc across the afternoon…who ya gonna call? It’s time to go with Plan D. Or Plan DC, as it’s actually known. Regular listeners may know DC, or Producer Dani as the silent partner of Team Amazing Breakfast, well, it’s silence no more. With the final track from Artist of the Week Among Brothers another spin of Charlie’s favourites the Kill Van Kulls and maybe a few choices of her own. For one day only, DC takes control. Be nice though, it’s her birthday.

Georgie’s still croaky, so Charlie’s still classy behind the wheel of the Amazing Breakfast car, steering it straight towards the chequered flag of awesome radio. We’ve got more from Among Brothers and another spin of our Track of the Week from the Kill Van Kulls and keeping in the grand Amazing Breakfast tradition of having wonderful comedians on the show, we drafted in Suzy Bennett to keep Charlie company. Suzy told us all about coming to London from Devon, and about her plans for Edinburgh this year. Suzy also is doing some wonderful charitable work with Race For Life – read all about it over here on her blog, and give her a digital wave on Twitter to tell her how brilliant she is.

Even though Georgie is away, Charlie is on hand to take the baton and run with it for another day, and keep a steady pace with the usual Amazing Breakfast shenanigans. We’ve got another spin of Lost and Found by The Kill Van Kulls for you, and on Wednesdays we like to catch up with our Artist of the Week – today is no exception! We grabbed a few words with Alex from the utterly brilliant Among Brothers. You may have heard My Head Is A Vessel on Amazing Radio before, but either way, they’re definitely Your New Favourite Band!

While Georgie is huddled under a duvet, we’ve still got Charlie Ashcroft on board to steer the Good Ship Amazing Breakfast in her absence! In addition to another spin of the excellent Lost and Found by the Kill Van Kulls and more from Artist of the Week Among Brothers, as we’re now in prime holiday season, we’re going to be giving out some good old fashioned travel advice, including the importance of manners, and essential items no traveller should leave at home. Now where did we leave the barometer…?

Wow, Georgie’s sounding a bit gruff this morning…suspiciously like…Charlie Ashcroft, actually. Well, Georgie IS sounding a bit gruff – so she’s been put on strict orders by Producer Dani not to talk for the next week! As Charlie did such an exceptional job previously he’s back in the saddle, taking the reins, and ready to make the Breakfast Pony trot on for another day. We’ve got a new Artist of the Week in the form of Among Brothers whose brilliant song My Head Is A Vessel has causing a stir here on Amazing Radio, and our new Track of the Week is a triumphant return for the excellent Kill Van Kulls. We’ve played and loved Fools Wish – today we introduce Lost and Found!

To wrap up this week’s festivities, we’re polishing off the last of the Lemonade which BRAIDS thoughtfully brought over, and we’re all done with our exercise for the week with final play of a track from Channel Swimmer’s back catalogue, and we thought we’d bring the giggles to this morning for Facebook Friday by talking about some of the comedy signs you’ve seen on your travels. Sometimes from inspirational messages, punctuation failures, or, more often than not, language barriers – they just never fail to raise a chuckle. So if you’ve seen anything that’s as funny as this head over to our Facebook Page and let us know!

The wonderfully affable Andrew Watts is our comedic guest for this week, he’s been down on his luck, (but of course, has exploited it to its fullest comedy potential) but managed to keep a good old fashioned stiff upper lip. In addition to the usual array of fantastic music, we’ve got another spin of our awesome Track of the Week by BRAIDS and another fantastic tune from Artist of the Week Channel Swimmer.

To make Wednesday a little easier to bear, we’ve got another play of the utterly brilliant Lemonade by BRAIDS and a lovely interview with the excellent Mat Mayes – AKA our Artist of the Week Channel Swimmer. Mat spoke to us all about the music of Channel Swimmer, doing Awesome Remixes of other bands we love like Polarsets and, of course, swimming the channel.

It’s that time of year again. Summer fast approaching, kids loitering with intent on street corners after school as the teachers have stopped bothering with pesky things like homework, not when they’re trying to organise the inevitable chaos that is….the end of year play. We’ve all been there. We’ve worn the tights and the badly constructed papier mache. Learned the lines, sung the songs, and generally given our parents a wealth of blackmail material to wheel out in front of future partners forever. For Twitter Tuesday we want you to share with us your childhood theatrical triumphs. Were you the best tree in the wood? Did your Oliver put Olivier to shame? Let us know! All this and more from Channel Swimmer and another swig of Lemonade from BRAIDS!

We love nothing more than some chilled electronic beats on a Monday morning. Thank goodness we’ve got a new Artist of the Week in the shape of Channel Swimmer to make that wish come true. So refreshing! What else is refreshing for a Monday? A cool drink of Lemonade you say? That’ll be our Track of the Week from BRAIDS sorting us out with that, then! With music like this in our ears, Team Amazing Breakfast are prepped and ready to wear our rock-star sunglasses in to the office, no matter what the sky is doing.

Brilliant! It’s Friday! Oh. Today WASN’T Hawaiian shirt day. AWKWARD. This week for Facebook Friday we’re talking about those awkward moments life seems to dish out. Ever been to a party with 4 different exes? Showed up to a wedding in the same dress as the bride’s mum? Sharing your experiences is definitely cathartic, we promise. Head over to our Facebook page and tell us yours! To soothe the mortification we’ve got more loveliness from our Artist of the Week the ABC Club and a final play of our Track of the Week by Trophy Wife too.

Thursdays are they day when we serve you up a couple of slices of humorous chatter with your usual order of Artist of the Week goodness from the ABC Club and your extra helping of Track of the Week with another play of (link)Trophy Wife’s brilliant track Microlite nestling on your metaphorical plate together. John Cooper – AKA Danny Pensive took some time out from his travels around the country to speak to us, and what a lovely gent he was too. You can find out all about John and Danny, and listen to the music he’s picked for us to play by Scotch Egg to round off your meal this morning!

We caught up with the lovely Zandra, frontwoman of our fantastic Artist of the Week the ABC Club to chat all about being heralded as one of the best new bands around by NME, playing at industry wrestling matches like Live At Leeds, and the new material we can expect from them later in the year! This, plus another spin of Microlite by Trophy Wife makes for a healthy, delicious start to the day.

Despite already spoiling your lunch and dinner with a smorgasbord of new music from Artist of the Week the ABC Club sand another spin of our Track of the Week Microlite from Trophy Wife we thought we’d don some rockstar shades and talk SUMMER for Twitter Tuesday! Team Amazing Breakfast are massive fans of ice lollies and chilled out afternoons in the park, looking cool as heck. Join us, and while you’re here, let us know your favourite things about summer!

It’s Monday, so that can only mean one thing. Loads of awesome new music courtesy of Amazing Breakfast! We’ve got a fab new Artist of the Week in the ABC Club - you may have heard their brilliant track Get Set Go doing the rounds on Amazing Radio, we loved it so much we wanted to play more of their awesome tunes! We’ve also got an ace new Track of the Week from Oxford’s Trophy Wife for your delectation.

Parting is such sweet sorrow, but unfortunately we have to say goodbye to the wonderful Alcopop Records who’ve done a fine job as our Artist of the Week this week, seeing us off with a bit of My First Tooth and it’s also the final play of Void by Seekae, our ludicrously gorgeous Track of the Week. As we were mixing drinks at the start of the week, now we’re REMIXING them for Facebook Friday! We want to know your favourites – love the Aeroplane remix of Friendly Fires’ ‘Paris’? (Friends of Amazing Breakfast don’tcha know) or even the brilliant RAC Remix of Royal Treatment Plant’s ‘All That’s Left? head over to our Facebook Page and help us mix it up a bit!

Though it’s true that we do have more from the utterly wonderful Alcopop Records and another spin of our brilliant Track of the Week by Seekae, one thing you CANNOT miss on the show this morning is our brilliant comedic guest, Marcel Lucont! Flâneur, raconteur, bon-viveur – Marcel spoke to us all about his Edinburgh Show and all about his new book – ‘What We French Think Of You British – And Where You Are Going Wrong‘. Which should give you an idea of what he had in store for us!

For our Artist of the Week this week we’re flying the flag for the awesome Alcopop Records who are indisputably champions of awesome new music. We caught up with Jack from the label to chat about all things Alcopop, all about their artists and their upcoming 50th release! All this and another spin of Void by Seekae for your listening pleasure.

We’ve got another spin our our Track of the Week from Seekae, more from the brilliant Alcopop Records in the form of LightGuides, and it’s also Twitter Tuesday!

This week Team Amazing Breakfast are feeling all nostalgic, or possibly just rejuvenated after the bouncy punk stylings of last week’s Artist of the Week, PRIS but this week we’re all about Teen Movies! Obviously The Breakfast Club is right up there in our estimation, but we want to know yours, so tweet us your favourites!

This week on Amazing Breakfast we’re mixing up some new music cocktails. One part Track of the Week from the brilliant Seekae with Void, one part Artist of the Week with a twist – we’re featuring a selection of awesome new artists who take shelter under the wonderful Alcopop Records umbrella, such as old favourites LightGuides and My First Tooth topped off with a bit of Georgie Rogers. Pretty bloomin’ tasty.

If the fact that it’s Friday hasn’t already filled you with joy, then the final play of Been Better by Kyla La Grange and another killer track by our Artist of the Week PRIS will surely tip you over the edge into the happiness abyss. In addition to all of that good stuff, we’ve also got a bit of Facebook Friday action for you. As we’re into June and the year’s about halfway through, we want to know your favourite records of the year so far – is ‘King of Limbs’ King of Records? Did Friendly Fires’ ‘Pala’ give you pala-patations? Are you still in love with ‘Judas’ baby? Head over to our Facebook page and let us know your favourites!

The brilliant Chris Brooker gave us the lowdown on being on an all-star international comedy team and relentless gigging all over the world! You can read all about him here, ‘like’ him on Facebook and if you find yourself at a loose end this morning after the show finishes, be sure read his meticulous and utterly compelling gig diaries! We’ve got another spin of our Track of the Week from Kyla La Grange and more from PRIS tucked up our sleeves for you as well.

We chatted to the Cat, the utterly charming singer from our Artist of the Week PRIS last week when she was on her lunchbreak, and she remained a paragon of rock ‘n’ roll brilliance, even while hiding in a toilet. Take THAT, co-workers. Cat gave us the skinny on all things PRIS and about their awesome tune Blu-Tack Baby which we just can’t get enough of.

With more from PRIS and another spin of Been Better by Kyla La Grange as well as the usual banter and a Gig of the Day you’re already sitting down to a massive bowl of awesome this morning.

Team Amazing Breakfast like to treat you right though, so we’ve got some Twitter Tuesday for you to sprinkle on the top to jazz it up even more. This week we’re talking Festival faux-pas – your own or those you’ve witnessed. Why do some girls wear heels at a festival? Who really thinks a body stocking is practical clothing? Why start moshing at an acoustic stage? Tweet us with yours!

What could be better for a Monday morning than the sound of a great new single by an artist we LOVE? We’d say nothing, but that’d be a lie, a free holiday and loads of cash would probably be better, but a new track from Kyla La Grange is a pretty bloomin’ good way to start the day. We adored Walk Through Walls and we’re already adoring Been Better just as much.

We’ve got a new Artist of the Week in the shape of the tremendous PRIS – we became besotted with their wonderful brand of punky pop via Blu-Tack Baby and can’t wait to play you more of their butt-kicking tunes.

It’s Friday! Brilliant! Though we do have to say goodbye to our ace Artist of the Week Ice Black Birds and our Track of the Week by the Jezabels, we’ve softened the blow with a bit of Facebook Friday action, and the glorious conclusion of our audio consequences! This week we’re asking where you’d jet off to to live for a couple of years if you could head out to anywhere on the planet! Become the epitome of cool in Paris? Teach English in Asia? Laze around on an Australian beach? Let us know! To conclude our awesome audio consequences story, who better to get on board than Grouplove? A thrilling conclusion to the week!

Another show packed full to bursting with goodies for you today – as well as another track from Ice Black Birds, another spin of Hurt Me by the Jezabels, the continuation of our audio consequences, AND the wonderfully funny comedian Caroline Mabey! Caroline told us what we can expect from her Edinburgh show, and about how she made the video for Stop My Head by Evan Dando! You can find out all about Caroline right here.

UPDATE: Better late than never! A few technical hitches getting the video to you, but here it is – Georgie speaks to Artist of the Week Ice Black Birds at the Great Escape festival in Brighton.

In addition to hearing the interview we did with Artist of the Week Ice Black Birds at the Great Escape festival in Brighton, you can also watch it! See how it all went down with Georgie, Sam and Ollie. We’ve also our fantastic Track of the Week by the Jezabels and more brilliant audio consequences, following on from the story started by Holy Ghost and Warpaint, continued by Beat Connection and taken to the next level today by Friendly Fires and Saint Saviour!

To get you primed and ready for Tuesday we’ve got another spin of the wonderful Hurt Me by the Jezabels, more from Artist of the Week Ice Black Birds, more awesome audio consequences – following on from our leads yesterday from Holy Ghost and Warpaint, Beat Connection will be continuing the story! All this, AND a Twitter Tuesday topic for you. This week we’re all over gig pet hates – smoochy couples? People who talk through the entire set? Whatever gets your goat at gigs – head over to our Twitter and let us know!

The Great Escape may have been done and dusted ages ago, but the fun still continues here on Amazing Breakfast! We caught up with Ice Black Birds while we were down there, and couldn’t resist having them as Artist of the Week. We’ll have the video for your viewing pleasure on Wednesday, so you can see their cheeky faces as well as enjoying their awesome tunes like 22:22 and SSW in the meantime. We’ve also got a new Track of the Week from the ridiculously brilliant Jezabels called Hurt Me, and as if this wasn’t enough to whet your appetite for your toast this morning, we’ve also got the the first part of a little game of audio consequences Georgie played with some of the bands she interviewed across the Great Escape weekend – any fans of Holy Ghost and Warpaint in the house…?

It’s Friday, which means Facebook Friday and this week it’s abbreviations people. We all do it. Totes, obvs, peeps, they seem to have creeped into everyone’s vocab. But what we want to know, is what are your favourites? Let us know over on our Facebook page! We’ve also got a final track by our Artist of the Week William Fitzsimmons, as well as the final play of our awesome Track of the Week - Young Silence by Echo Lake.

This week’s Thursday comedian is the delightfully witty Rachel Parris – who was named in the final for New Act of the Year 2011. Rachel told us all about her time studying and working as a musician, which has helped create her unique brand of musical comedy. Rachel will also be introducing us to the 50’s influenced sounds of amazingtunes.com artist Jeanie Barton. There’s plenty chance to see Rachel’s show, catch her next on the 2nd of June at 8pm at The Victoria in Mile End. Team Amazing Breakfast plans to be there!

Georgie is again joined by our Artist of the Week William Fitzsimmons, who is midway through his US tour, he’ll be talking about growing up in Pittsburgh, his experiences of recording the album ‘Gold in The Shadow,’ and working with Julia Stone on the track Let You Break. As well as this you’ll also get another chance to hear our awesome Track of the Week Young Silence from Echo Lake.

In honour of our Artist of the Week, William Fitzsimmons, we have dedicated Twitter Tuesday to your bearded heroes! So, whether it be Dave Grohl or ZZ Top Tweet us with your hairy hero for Georgie to deliberate over. We’ll also be having a cheeky chat to William Fitzsimmons about his own impressive facial hair.

A brand new week brings us a brand new Artist of the Week in the form of singer-songwriter William Fitzsimmons. We’ll be catching up with the Pittsburgh born artist and hearing one of his spellbinding tracks. We’ve also got a brand new Track of the Week from Echo Lake – the awesome Young Silence, which you can hear all week.

It’s Friday, which means Facebook Friday and this week we’re going all cultural and talking about Art. Seeing as were such big music nerds, it’s gotta be album artwork though, obviously! Favourite covers? Worst ones? Funny ones? Let us know over on our Facebook page! We’ve also got a final track by The Travelling Band, as well as the final play of our awesome Track of the Week - Taken by the Tide by the Skeleton Dead.

This week’s Thursday comedian is the wonderful Ben Target – who was recently crowned joint winner of the Leicester Comedy Festival’s prestigious Comedian of the Year prize with another former guest – the brilliant Tom Rosenthal! Ben told us all about his comedy, deliberately avoiding inclusion for awards at this year’s Edinburgh Festival, and introduces us to the delights of DJ Ned! Ben’s Edinburgh Fringe show is called Discover Ben Target and you can catch him from 17th – 27th August at 1:45PM in Bannerman’s bar – so get yourself down for exactly 39 minutes of award-winning comedy! Team Amazing Breakfast are booking our tickets already…

We spoke to Jo Dudderidge, singer of our Artist of the Week the Travelling Band all about the band’s new single Fairweather Friends, the forthcoming album, curating an album for the charity MAK which features the likes of Elbow and Doves, as well as Amazing artists like Jim Noir and Silverclub and their touring plans for the summer. Busy times in Camp Travelling Band!

In addition to another play of our awesome Track of the Week by the Skeleton Dead and more from the Travelling Band it is, of course, Twitter Tuesday! With the impending arrival of Geordie Shore to our TV screens, and Georgie’s sensational ability to imitate accents, we thought we’d give her a little challenge! Tweet us with some accents for Georgie to attempt on air…

We loved having The Travelling Band as our Track of the Week so much, we had to invite them back as our Artist of the Week! It was such a joy to play Sundial every day, and as they’ve got an awesome new single called Fairweather Friends on the way, we couldn’t resist. We’ve also got a brand new Track of the Week from The Skeleton Dead – the awesome Taken By The Tid was recently featured on Audition with Charlie Ashcroft and we fell in love with it!

Though holidaying has a lot of good sides, it can also turn sour pretty easily. This week’s Facebook Friday is all about travel nightmares. Have you ever had your luggage end up on the other side of the world? Spent 12 hours stranded in Alaska? Been lost in Peru with only a herd of goats as a tour guide? Head on over to our Facebook Page and ease the pain of your ordeal by sharing it with similarly affected people! We’ve also got another track from our fantastic Artist of the Week Strawhouses in the shape of their track Trainwreck which you may have heard recently played by Charlie Ashcroft on Audition, and the final spin of our wonderful Track of the Week Goldstar by Cashier No. 9 to set you up for a great Friday!

Thursday means chuckles here on Amazing Radio, which comes to us this week from fantastic comedian Chris Stokes. Chris gave us a bit of insider info on comedians and their jokes, and about why it’s probably a bad idea to show up to a gig in a donkey costume. You can find Chris on Twitter to tell him how brilliant he is, and read his blog and find out where you can catch him live here.

We caught up with Paul, lead singer in the band who are our fantastic Artist of the Week – Strawhouses. We chatted all about the new album, and about the single Batteries! This, plus another spin of our Track of the Week by Cashier No.9. Who could ask for more?

If you’re feeling jealous of Georgie’s adventures on her lovely holiday to India, then now’s your chance to make her jealous of you! For Twitter Tuesday this week we’ve come over all hairdresser-y and want to know where you’re off to on your hols, or where you’ve been. Hitting up an exotic festival perhaps, or just to the countryside in a camper van? Either way, we wanna know, so tweet us @amazingbrekky!

We’ve also got another track from the new album by Strawhouses and another spin of our incredible track of the week Goldstar by Cashier No.9 for your listening pleasure.

Hooray! Georgie’s back! No more filthy dubstep from Mark! All the usual good stuff from Team Amazing Breakfast will be in evidence, including a new track of the week from Cashier No. 9 with their new single Goldstar – seeing as their last track Oh Pity was a Track of the Week as well, we just can’t seem to get enough of these guys! We’ve also got an awesome new Artist of the Week in the form of Strawhouses, you may have heard their fantastic tracksThese Are The Willing and more recently Train Wreck on Amazing Radio, and seeing as they’ve got an album being released imminently, we couldn’t resist the opportunity to get them on the show!

It’s Friday! Unfortunately it’s not a bank holiday this week. Gutter! To make up for it, for this week’s Facebook Friday topic we’re talking Middle-Class NIGHTMARES. Those utterly trivial problems that seem like the end of the world, when really, it’s not even a bit more than an inconvenience. Those times when you’re making dinner and you discover, to you’re horror, that you’re out of couscous. THE HORROR. So, to poke fun at the entirely minor crises in our lives, head over to our Facebook Page and tell us yours! We’ve also a track from the soundtrack to Flick from 3BobNation and the final play of Silver Screen by Beat Connection.

Thursdays mean funnies, and even though Georgie may be absent, we’re sticklers for routine, so we thought we’d chat to the wonderfully entertaining Chris Martin! Another Chris Martin. Really. Chris gave us the skinny on going through his career with that name, and plans for the rest of the year. You can catch him here: or find him on Twitter. We’ve also got another track from the soundtrack to Abigail Tarttelin’s book Flick from the Portland Authority called the New Year and as if that wasn’t enough, we’ve also got another spin of Silver Screen by Beat Connection for your delectation.

In preparation for covering this week’s Amazing Breakfast, Charlie Ashcroft took to the streets of London with his trusty portable recorder, and interviewed the lovely Abigail Tarttelin who is our Author of the Week! Her book, Flick comes with a soundtrack on which all the songs have been sourced from amazingtunes.com. Charlie asked Abigail all about the book, the future, and about picking songs for the soundtrack such as Speak To Me by Futuristic Retro Champions!

We may be without Georgie to keep us right in our morning routines, but Team Amazing Breakfast are sticking to routine, even if it’s Charlie instead! In addition to another spin of Beat Connection’s awesome track Silver Screen, and another selection from the soundtrack to Abigail Tarttelin’s book Flick which has all been sourced from amazingtunes.com – today’s choice is A Nautical Theme by The Skeleton Dead – we’ve also got Twitter Tuesday! This week we’re talking about band names – the best and worst ones you can think of! Better yet, the ones that are a bit terrible, but in their own way completely brilliant. Are you a fan of a names like Casiotone For The Painfully Alone or And So I Watch You From Afar? Tweet us your suggestions!

After a week of the intense beats from Mark Ryan, we thought we’d soothe your troubled soul with the dulcet tones of Charlie Ashcroft introducing loads of great new music to you every day this week. In grand Amazing Breakfast tradition, he’s picked a sensational Track of the Week from Beat Connection and we’ve gone all upmarket by not having an Artist of the week, but an Author of the Week! Abigail Tarttelin has written a book called Flick which is a novel with a difference – it comes with a soundtrack of songs she’s selected from amazingtunes.com and we’re playing cuts from the soundtrack every day this week starting with the awesome Trapped In Kansas and their track Towerblock!

All week we’ve been talking about the Royal Wedding, and now it’s here! To gear you up for the ceremony, we’ve been asking for your suggestions for the wedding disco from amazingtunes.com over on our Facebook Page and we’ve compiled a selection for your listening pleasure! In addition to all of that we’ve got final plays for Homework Brothers and 1914s, and you’ll possibly be able to hear The Drop…in full?

In addition to more from our Artist of the Week 1914s and another play of Seba-Painted Sky (HB Ambient Funky House Mix) by Homework Brothers we’re still after your wedding disco suggestions! Head over to our Facebook Page for more info, and to make your suggestions! We’ll also have the pleasure of Kai Humphries’ company – he’ll be in to chat all things comedy and to explain the trick behind completing a Rubik’s Cube in record time while doing a comedy routine! You can find out more about Kai here and also tell him how brilliant he is on his Twitter.

Mark chats to Jimi from our awesome Artist of the Week 1914s all about getting the band together, plans for the rest of the year, and playing on rooftops! We’ve also got another spin of our Track of the Week from Homework Brothers and…The Drop!

Settling into his new role as captain of the good ship Amazing Breakfast, Mark has more from the awesomely arty 1914s, another spin of our our Track of the Week from Homework Brothers, we’ve got more from our Roving Royal Reporter (OK, it’s just Colin from The Saturday Show and we’re talking Twitter Tuesday! A week on from Record Store Day, we’re wondering how you consume your music – CDs? Vinyl? MP3s? Spotify? 8-Track?! Obviously your first port of call is amazingtunes.com (link amazingtunes.com), but after that, we want to know your preferred format! Get over onto our Twitter and let us know!

New week! New tunes! New…PRESENTER?! No, it’s not that Georgie’s gotten better at accents, it really is Mark Ryan you can hear coming out of your speakers. The one and only beats-master will be here all week filling in for Ms Rogers while she’s sunning herself in India, but he’ll be steering your week through all of the usual fun and games (with a darker twist, of course) with a new Artist of the Week in the shape of the 1914s whose tunes you might have heard on Mark’s own show Amazing Beats. Mark has also picked a beats-filled Track of the Week from Homework Brothers and will be introducing regular Amazing Breakfast listeners to… The Drop.

It’s always tough to part ways with our friends, and it feels like just like that, every Friday when we have final plays of songs by the spectacularly talented Daughter and our last wonderful, epic morning hug from Spotlight Kid and their brilliant song Haunting Me. To cheer ourselves up, for Facebook Friday TeamBrekky have been basking in the warm nostalgic glow of our computer screens by watching TV theme tunes on YouTube. You know you’ve been there, and you wish you’d remembered to watch SHARKY AND GEORGE don’t you? Think you can do better? Get your mouse over to our Facebook Page and prove it!

Sometimes songs are unintentionally funny, and then there are songs by James Sherwood. (Where the comedy is entirely intentional, naturally!) We love music, we love comedy, so of course we can’t help but love someone as good at both as James is, and we couldn’t resist getting him on the phone for a chat. We chatted all about highlights, lowlights and misleading titles for your Edinburgh show! Everything you could wish to know about James can be found here and if you wanted to tell him how ace he is you can do so via the magic of Twitter. Plus more from Daughter and Spotlight Kid!

We caught up with Elena Tonra – AKA our wonderful Artist of the Week Daughter a little while ago, and she was as charming as she is talented. Sometimes life is so unfair. If she keeps penning and performing songs as beautiful as Run and new song Landfill we’ve got no choice but to forgive her though! We chatted to her about how she started out and her plans for the rest of the year. Top this off with another play of Haunting Me by Spotlight Kid, our epic Track of the Week, and it’s pretty hard to go wrong if you’re starting your day from here.

Alongside more from the utterly spellbinding Daughter, we’ve got another play of our fantastic shoegazey ‘morning hug’ of a Track of the Week by the brilliant Spotlight Kid it’s called Haunting Me and we LOVE it. It’s also – of course – Twitter Tuesday and seeing as it’s spring, seeing as there are lambs and prams everywhere you turn at the moment, we can’t resist chatting about baby names! Tweet us your favourites, or ones you’ve heard that are so dreadful/baffling you need to share them! Know anyone called Annette Curtain? Fancy calling your kids Apple and Moses? Tweet us @amazingbrekky!

As ever, a new week opens the door to a world of awesome new music on Amazing Breakfast. This week is definitely no exception! We’ve got a seriously epic Track of the Week from Spotlight Kid with their song Haunting Me and as it’s the week one of our absolute favourite artists, Daughter releases her new EP ‘His Young Heart’, we couldn’t resist featuring her as our Artist of the Week and showcasing her beautiful songs. If you liked former chart-topper ‘Run‘, be sure to check out the EP’s lead track Landfill!

The end of another week, and another sorrowful goodbye to Frequency our much loved Track of the Week by unouomedude and Artist of the Week You Animals – I’m sure we’ll be giving them another spin before long though! It is Friday, which can only mean Facebook Friday and this week we’ve been inspired by the recent tales of dramatic lottery success and wondered if you’ve ever won anything brilliant? Or so terrible it makes it brilliant? Get yourself across to our Facebook Page and let us know!

We’ve got more You Animals and unouomedude for your listening pleasure, and we also caught up with wonderful funnyman James Dowdeswell all about getting into the world of stand up comedy, making a cameo on Extras with Ricky Gervais, and the perils of being mistaken for an employee in the Apple Store! You can find out all about the gent in question here or let him know how brilliant you think he is on twitter.

Our Artist of the Week You Animals sent out guitarist Stuart as their representative, and he was an all-round excellent chap! He filled us in on all things regarding their new album ‘Crimes, Creeps & Thrills’, their plans for the year, and the story behind Halfway To Heartbreak – he calls their sound ‘pop music with a dark heart’, we call it amazing, of course!

In addition to another play of our fantastic Track of the Week by unouomedude (TeamBrekky tip: it’s pronounced ‘you know you owe me dude’ when you’re telling all your mates about how ridiculously good he is!) we’ve got more from our Artist of the Week You Animals and it’s also Twitter Tuesday! This week we’re looking for suggestions for party themes, as Georgie’s brother will soon be departing for Moscow, she’s throwing him a massive bash! A suitably entertaining theme is needed, however, so Tweet us your suggestions!

New day, new week, new Artist of the Week! The wonderful You Animals make what Stuart from the band described as ‘pop music with a dark heart’ – can’t argue with that! You might have heard both tracks from their current single What A Shame Lorraine and Halfway to Heartbreak, playing on Amazing Radio lately, and we were so much in love with them, we had to have them as Artist of the Week! We’ve also got an absolutely crackin’ new Track of the Week from unouomedude – his new single Frequency is just one of many awesome songs on his amazingtunes.com profile!

TeamBrekky are very sad to say goodbye to our Track of the Week by Jukebox Collective and our Artist of the Week Dimbleby & Capper but hopefully we’ll be playing their awesome tunes to you soon! In an effort to cheer ourselves up we’ve gone all nostalgic for school days for Facebook Friday and we want you stories about teachers! Children can be horrors, can’t they…what a dreadful bunch we all were! If you’ve got some hilarious tales, head on over to our Facebook Page and share your guilt!

We interrupted the charming and wonderful Nish Kumar in the middle of doing the washing up. Sorry Nish! He’s our excellent comedy guest for the week, one half of Culture Show parody sketch duo The Gentlemen of Leisure and brilliant stand-up in his own right! You can tell him how brilliant you think he is on Twitter. We’ve also got more from Dimbleby & Capper and another play of our Track of the Week Lost & Found by Jukebox Collective.

Our mega-awesome Artist of the Week Dimbleby & Capper is the alias of the lovely Laura Bettinson, and we caught a chat with her shortly after the launch of her insanely catchy single Let You Go to talk all things D&C about how the project came about, forthcoming material and it’s many extensions. Big thanks to Laura!

In addition to more from Dimbleby & Capper it’s Twitter Tuesday! As Georgie prepares for her impending voyage to India, she needs some reading material to keep her brain occupied! Read anything brilliant that you can recommend? Proper trashy beach novel? Let us know! We’ve also got another spin of our Track of the Week Lost & Found by Jukebox Collective – if you haven’t heard the other track on their profile Icon Parade you should! It’s pretty darn awesome, and available as a free download!

TeamBrekky are particularly enamoured with this week’s Artist of the Week – a lovely lady called Laura who makes seriously addictive music under the moniker Dimbleby & Capper you’ve probably heard us raving about her awesome song Let You Go already, and we’re excited to be playing more of her tunes across the week. We’ve also got a great new Track of the Week from Jukebox Collective called Lost & Found for your listening pleasure.

Wrapping up the week in a neat and tidy fashion, we have the final play of Oars our Track of the Week by Draw Me Stories, the last track from The Mouse That Ate The Cat, our splendid Artist of the Week. It’s also April Fools Day. We might have some tricks up our sleeve, we might not….you’ll have to listen and find out! Either way we’d love to hear some of your prank stories, so head over to our Facebook page and let us know!

In addition to more musical goodness from The Mouse That Ate The Cat and Draw Me Stories, we’ve got comical goodness from the lovely Tom Webb who told us all about how he got into comedy, writing plays and about who to follow on twitter! Naturally the answer is him and us of course…

We caught up with Brian from our exceptionally awesome Artist of the Week The Mouse That Ate The Cat and he told us all about how the two of them came to make music together, and cleared up the mystery of the lyrics to their awesome track Knife Lover!

Spring has most definitely sprung! With the nice weather we’ve been having recently TeamBrekky has been donning the sunglasses and generally enjoying the heck out of the sunshine. Though our Track of the Week Oars from Draw Me Stories and all of Artist of the Week The Mouse That Ate The Cat’s songs are helping, for Twitter Tuesday this week we’re talking sunshiny spring songs that are just getting your head nodding along with the daffodils. Just like that lil’ lamb. Let us know yours! Tweet us @amazingbrekky.

Another week, another batch of great tunes and awesome bands we want to shout about! This week it’s the turn of Draw Me Stories and we’ve picked their epic track (Oars to be our Track of the Week! It’s not out until April, but you can get your ears around it as many times as you like over at their amazingtunes.com profile. Our Artist of the Week this week is awesome Scots electro duo The Mouse That Ate The Cat – you might have heard us raving about how much we love Knife Lover, and seeing as all their songs are just as good, we couldn’t resist having them on the show!

It’s Friday. As a special treat we’ll let you in on a secret – our Artist of the Week for next week has inspired this week’s Facebook Friday topic with the chorus for this tune – it’s a bit favourite of TeamBrekky’s and we love singing along in the studio…but just can’t work out what those lines are! So our topic for this week is indecipherable or misheard lyrics – ever thought someone was singing something really weird in a song? Like ‘boogie wonderland’ was ‘boogie with your dad’? Let us know over at our Facebook page! We’re also bidding farewell to the marvellous Buen Chico as our Artist of the Week and the equally marvellous My Tiger My Timing with their track This Is Not The Fire but they’ll surely be back on the show soon enough!

In addition to more from Buen Chico and another play of our sensational Track of the Week from My Tiger My Timing who’ve recently been shortlisted for the Glastonbury Emerging Talent Competition we’re also going to be speaking to the charming and wonderful Luke Toulson about gigging, other projects, and finding the funny side of parenting!

We spoke to Morgan, singer of our fantastic Artist of the Week Buen Chico about how the band came to be together, what it was like supporting the likes of the Cribs, and, of course, all about the new Seasons EP, due to be released very soon. Check out Summer right now!

Tuesdays means Twitter at Camp Brekky, and this week we’re after the lowdown on your bad habits. Are you a nail biter? Always late? We wanna know! \Tweet us @amazingbrekky! We’ve also got another track by Artist of the Week Buen Chico and another spin of This Is Not The Fire by My Tiger My Timing, of course.

We’re going a bit indie on Amazing Breakfast this week. Why? Because it’s Buen Chico time! That’s Why! You might have heard their kickass track Summer all over Amazing Radio recently, or the equally awesome Happiness is Important, and we wanted to introduce some of their other fantastic tracks to the world. We’re also giving a great big shout of CONGRATULATIONS to My Tiger My Timing who’ve been shortlisted for the Glastonbury Emerging Talent Competition alongside other amazingtunes.com favourites Emily and the Woods,Twin Brother and My First Tooth. We love their tune This Is Not The Fire and will be playing it every day this week!

It’s Friday and it’s all getting rather glamorous here at Amazing Breakfast. Why? Well, we’ve got another track by our exceptionally talented Artist of the Week Blackchords as well as the final spin of our Track of the Week by Laki Mera, but it’s a star-studded edition of Amazing Breakfast today thanks to Facebook Friday! We’ve been talking celebrity star spotting…what random celebs have you seen out and about? Get over to our Facebook page and let us know!

As always, Thursdays are funny on Amazing Breakfast and picking a tune and shooting the breeze with us this week is Tom Goodliffe! Tom chatted all about gigging, Edinburgh, and spreadsheets, naturally. What else would we discuss with such a fine comedian? Tom picked the song Tom Spanswick by Yoshi – check it out at amazingtunes.com and see if you like it as much as Tom did!

We caught up with Nick from our awesome Artist of the Week Blackchords via the magic of Skype, and by all accounts it was a fine Melbourne evening when we spoke! We chatted all about putting together a second album, contributing songs to the soundtrack of a new film soon to be released in Australia, and all things Blackchords, and couldn’t resist trying out a bit of Australian on him…see how we got on!

In addition to more from Blackchords and another spin of the awesome Track of the Week by Laki Mera, it is, of course Twitter Tuesday and we’re talking movies. Those so-called classics you’re yet to watch, or even just films that just about everyone on the planet has seen except you! Star Wars? Back to the Future? The Godfather? Dirty Dancing? We wanna know, so tweet us!

Another week, another barrage of great new music, and great new featured artists. Today we call on As Night Falls previously, and you’ll be getting a taste of their back catalogue across the week. We’ve also got a new Track of the Week from the exceptional Laki Mera called More Than You – another vital chapter in your musical education!

Friday, Friday, Friday! Hurrah! Or boo-hoo, if you consider we have to say goodbye to our Artist of the Week, Royal Treatment Plant and give Bear Driver’s track Enemy it’s final outing. Though if you head over to their profiles on amazingtunes.com and show both artists some digital love, you’ll hear more from them soon enough! More boo-hoo-ing from Team Brekky because after Pancake Madness on Tuesday, it’s now Lent – season of abstinence. Which isn’t very much fun at all. We provide a public service here on Amazing Breakfast, though. In order to remind you of why you’re giving things up and to give you inspiration to keep at it, this week’s Facebook Friday deals with excesses – those times when perhaps you had a bit…too much fun? No need to thank us, just head over to our Facebook Friday and share your own stories of excess! As if that wasn’t enough for you, we’ve also got an exclusive interview with rising starlet Kyla La Grange – we caught up with Kyla at the Social in London ahead of her single launch earlier this week – for a full review of that gig and more, check out Amazing Live with Rich Brant this afternoon at 1pm!

Thursdays are funny on Amazing Breakfast as a rule, and, of course, this week is no exception. This week our chuckles have come from the exceptionally brilliant gentleman that is Tiernan Douieb. We chatted all about being insulted by kids, gigging in the Alps, and waxed lyrical about Amazing Breakfast favourite Daughter – turns out he loves Run nearly as much as we do!

We spoke to the charming and wonderful Paula, the singer of our awesome Artist of the Week Royal Treatment Plant before they all head off to Austin, Texas to play at SXSW! Paula gave us all the details on the band’s current exploits, their second album, and the story behind the new single Battle Scars.

Today’s breakfast can only be one thing: PANCAKES! It is Pancake day, so if you’re tucking in to pancakes for breakfast, lunch, dinner (or even all three if you’re feeling ambitious?) we’ve got your back. Twitter Tuesday is all about your tasty toppings of choice. Lemon and sugar? Nutella? Marmite?! Get all over our twitter and let us know! To help you work up an appetite, we’ve also got more from our excellent Artist of the Week Royal Treatment Plant and another spin of Enemy by Bear Driver!

Monday, Monday, Monday…we’d like to say we share your Monday blues, but we definitely don’t. Not when we’ve got such awesome new music to share with you in the form of a new Track of the Week from the fantastic Bear Driver – their awesome song Enemy is not only being played by us every day this week, but is also available for absolutely free on amazingtunes.com. We’ve also just got to shout about our new Artist of the Week Royal Treatment Plant! If you’ve not heard the awesome RAC Remix of their song ‘All That’s Left’ then you’re in for a treat. On their amazingtunes.com profile you’ll also find their brilliant new single Battle Scars which is out today! Who said Mondays were rubbish, again?!

It’s been award ceremony after award ceremony after award ceremony, and TeamBrekky are jumping on the bandwagon. As a part of Facebook Friday we asked you to dish out some awards that are a bit more…unconventional, shall we say? Hop on over to our Facebook Friday and get involved. Who would you dish it out to? Most Creative Use of Raw Meat to Lady Gaga? Services to Sarcasm to Jack Dee? Beard of the Century to Captain Birdseye? Let us know! Sad though it is to say goodbye, we’ve also got the final track from Long Lost Sun and the final play of This Ain’t No Hymn by Saint Saviour, we’re sure we’ll hear ‘em again soon if you head over to their profiles and show them how much you like their music!

We had a funny lady last week in the shape of Eleanor Conway and we’ve got another this week in the shape of Pippa Evans AKA Loretta Maine! Loretta Maine is Pippa’s musical alter-ego. She’s unlucky in love, just a little bit bitter (and a lot twisted), and she’s not afraid to sing about it. Graphically. We spoke to the rather less disturbed Pippa as she was in domestic goddess mode at home, and chatted all about her various characters, gigging, TV, and the merits of not doing a run at Edinburgh. Pippa thoughtfully uploaded one of Loretta’s songs to amazingtunes.com for you to enjoy whenever you wish to hear it!

Our awesome Artist of the Week this is, of course, electropop duo Long Lost Sun, and we caught up with both Sarah and Jethro from the band and chatted all about how they came to make music together, the tailoring of the songs from Sarah’s original singer-songwriter arrangements to the synth collages they’ve become, and gearing up to performing live. Last we heard they were still looking for a pianist, so hopefully they find one soon and can treat us to the Long Lost Sun live extravaganza.

In addition to more from our Artist of the Week Long Lost Sun and another spin of This Ain’t No Hymn by Saint Saviour, Team Brekky has been thinking about fashion for this weeks Twitter Tuesday. Are you wishfully clearing out your closets in preparation for spring and unearthing some horrors from the past? Tweet us @amazingbrekky and share! Is it worse than Georgie’s love of visors? Let us know!

Not quite a brand new month yet, but still plenty of awesome new things for your ears! A brand new Track of the Week from Groove Armada’s magnificent vocalist and solo-artist in her own right, Saint Saviour. The song is called This Ain’t No Hymn and it’s bloomin’ great. We’ve also got a new Artist of the Week for you, in the form of Long Lost Sun – you might remember their fantastic tracks The Right Light and Where I Lie, which we liked so much we wanted to showcase more of their great songs, and we’ll be doing just that across the week!

We’ve got final outings for both our awesome Artist of the Week The Answering Machine and a final spin of our Track of the Week Sundial by The Travelling Band and as it’s the season of award ceremonies, we thought we’d give out some of our own awards as a part of Facebook Friday! Got someone you think deserves honouring? Most spectacular mullet to Pat Sharpe circa Funhouse? Worst footwear to your friend Dave who holds his Converse together with gaffer tape? Whatever you can think of, we want to know – get involved and hand out some awards over at our Facebook Page!

Thursdays are funny on Amazing Breakfast, and today is no exception! This week we had the pleasure of the company of Eleanor Conway – journalist, promoter, comedian and all-round awesome lady. She was telling us about an awesome new monthly gig she’s putting on, Conway’s Time Of The Month kicking off on March 10th in Hoxton. TeamBrekky are hoping to tear their ears away from the new album by Artist of the Week The Answering Machine or our awesome Track of the Week by The Travelling Band by then…

Listen to the interview again here.

We caught up with the Gemma, the wonderful bassist in our Artist of the Week The Answering Machine ahead of the release of their album ‘Lifeline’ this week.

To celebrate the release of their brand new album ‘Lifeline’ this week our Artist of the Week is The Answering Machine – you might remember their awesome tracks Animals and title track from the album Lifeline which we’ve been playing. We’re so excited to hear the new record! We’ve also got a new Track of the Week from excellent folks The Travelling Band called Sundial – let us know what you think!

The TeamBrekky family has expanded. Though you must all be familiar with the adventures of Rosie Rogers, not least when she was immortalised in song by Abandoman, you might not be familiar with her new lil’ sis Gracie! There she is in the picture, all tuckered out after a hard day playing. Awwww. TeamBrekky used this as an excuse to ask all of you on this, Facebook Friday to send us all of your adorable pet pictures and sweet stories about your critters! What better way to get in a good mood for a Friday than by looking at adorable pictures? Come on over onto our Facebook Page and send us yours! We’ve also got final plays for our awesome Track of the Week Four by Mammal Club and another brilliant song by Artist of the Week Haight-Ashbury though we’re terribly sad to have to say goodbye to them, we’ll just have to enjoy it while it lasts!

As the brilliant Tom Allen said last week, lots of comedians get into what they do because they love to talk. This week’s incredibly entertaining guest Patrick Monahan is no exception! In fact, he had so much to say, all of it brilliant, we weren’t able to squeeze it all in and still play as many great songs as usual, so if you head to our interview archive you can find the full interview for your listening pleasure. We spoke about all kinds of things to him, not least his love for Lionel Richie?! Also on today’s show – more from Mammal Club and Haight-Ashbury!

Listen to the interview again here.

We caught a word with the lovely Kirsty from our Artist of the Week Haight-Ashbury to chat about the current record, new material, touring, festivals, how their brilliant swooning sound came to be, and all about the story behind Favourite Song, which certainly is a favourite of ours here on Amazing Breakfast!

Listen to the interview again here.

Tuesdays mean Twitter here at Amazing Breakfast, or, for those of you who are already tweet-happy amazingbrekky. In addition to another spin of our fantastic Track of the Week by Mammal Club, and another great track by our equally fantastic Artist of the Week Haight-Ashbury we’re talking fantasy gigs. What gigs do you wish you’d been at? Hendrix at Woodstock? the Beatles at the Cavern? Even just a band you loved but never caught live – we wanna know, so get in touch!

It’s true that the weekend is over, but we’ve got such fantastic musical treats in store for you, it’s almost worth it. Our new Artist of the Week is awesomely psychedelic, they are the wonderful Haight-Ashbury – we’ll be playing tracks from their debut album across the week. We’ve also got a great song called Four by the excellent Mammal Club as our brand new Track of the Week.

It is finally Friday! Thank goodness! Though it does mean we say goodbye to our wonderful Artist of the Week Matt Norris & the Moon and spin our Track of the Week by Kyla La Grange for the final time, it is nearly the weekend, and it is Facebook Friday where we’re going to be getting you in the mood for Valentine’s Day… by talking about bad dates! For the usual fun head over to our Facebook Page and get involved.

Thursdays are funny on Amazing Breakfast and this week is no exception! We spoke to the indescribably charming and eloquent Tom Allen about his comedic beginnings, his upcoming show at Leicester Comedy Festival and we asked him to root through amazingtunes.com and find us a musical gem to his tastes, and he did so, in the form of the excellent Johnny Parry. Drop us an e-mail and let us know what you think!

Listen to the interview again here.

In addition to the usual raft of exceptional new and emerging music, another spin of our Track of the Week from Kyla La Grange, and a Gig of the Day, a couple of weeks ago we caught up with Matt Norris, sadly without the Moon, but still just as charming! Matt gave us an insight on how the band got together, and their plans for 2011.

Listen to the interview again here.

In addition to another spin of Walk Through Walls by Kyla La Grange, and another awesome track from Matt Norris & the Moon it’s Twitter Tuesday! As TeamBrekky are just so deeply in love with new music, we thought we’d take some recommendations from you, and we’re asking what the last record you bought or even the last record you listened to was. Tweet us and let us know what you’re loving at the minute!

Monday, Monday, Monday. Don’t worry – if you’re lamenting the loss of the weekend, we’ve got just the solution. A new Artist of the Week in the shape of wonderful indie folksters Matt Norris & the Moon and a cracking little pop tune from a talented lady who goes by the name of Kyla La Grange, her track Walk Through Walls takes the crown of Track of the Week!

Finally the end of the week, and as a treat for having behaved so well, we’ve got loads of good stuff for you! It is, of course Facebook Friday and this week, after Georgie’s discovery that the other half of TeamBrekky, Producer Dani can not only speak conversational Japanese, ride a unicycle and has a black belt in Taekwondo, this week’s topic is all about hidden talents! Get yourself over to our Facebook Page and tell us yours! We also asked James from Artist of the Week Alphabet Backwards and the boys from awesome London band Chapel Club, with Chapel Club also giving us a bit of an insight on their year ahead as well.

Listen to the interview again here.

Well, not new EVERYTHING, but we have got a synth-tastic new Track of the Week from The Mouse That Ate The Cat with their awesome song Knife Lover and a new Artist of the Week in the shape of excellent Oxford indie-popsters Alphabet Backwards. You may remember their awesome tracks Polar Bears and Collide so look forward to more from them across the week!

Finally Friday! Facebook Friday! This week we’re continuing to avoid our January blues by talking festivals – where do you fancy going this year? Glasto? Reading/Leeds? Or perhaps somewhere a bit further afield? The Coachella line-up is looking pretty awesome…get in on the action over at our Facebook Page and let us know where you’d like to head! We’ve also the final track from our Artist of the Week Sentinel and the final play of the gorgeous Left Turn by Hey Laura.

It’s Thursday, which can only mean one thing – we get to speak to a charming and lovely comedian about what they’re up to at the moment, and this week the urban legend that is Ben Van Der Velde joins us with a special song selection as well! He chatted to us about travelling in Ukraine, hanging out with Olympians, and turning himself into a human chain letter. Just another day at the office, from the sounds of it.

Listen to the interview again here.

We caught up with the lovely Tarabud from our Artist of the Week Sentinel a little while ago, and today you can hear that interview along with another of the band’s great songs.

Listen to the interview again here.

Along with another play of our awesome track of the week by Hey Laura and another track from Artist of the Week Sentinel, it’s also Twitter Tuesday! Georgie’s just started watching MisFits, and couldn’t help asking what superpower you’d have if you could have one granted to you? Flying? Invisibility? The ability to control paper?! Let us know! Tweet us @amazingbrekky.

How would you like some new music for a new week? You would? Brilliant, we’ve got an awesome new Track of the Week you might like, then – it comes from Hey Laura, and the song is Left Turn. If artists like Lissie are your thing, this might be right up your alley! We’ve also got a new Artist of the Week in the form of Sentinel – you might have heard their awesome track Jet Black getting a spin or two on Amazing Radio at the moment, so we’re bringing you a taster of the band’s extensive back catalogue all week.

The end of another week! We’re pleased to see the weekend, but sorry to be away from you for two whole days. To make up for our absence, we’ve got the final track from Artist of the Week straystarstuff and the final play of Animals our wicked cool Track of the Week by the Answering Machine. It’s also Facebook Friday we asked you to help us cure our January Blues by telling us how you’re getting over yours! Get on it over at our Facebook Page and join in the fun.

If you missed the indescribably funny Rob Broderick and James Hancox – aka Abandoman – last week – fear not! We’ve got more from them this week! Best of all – a brand new song, too. if you want to catch the first half of that interview, and the pair’s hilarious song about Amazing Breakfast’s mascot pooch Rosie Rogers, you can find it here in our interview archive!

Listen to the interview again here.

We’ve got another track from our somewhat enigmatic Artist of the Week straystarstuff and it’s also Twitter Tuesday! We’ve been hitting the sales this week, and though we’ve come out of it unscathed, we know not everyone is so lucky, and thought you might need the opportunity to vent, so we asked you to share your sales stories! Find that elusive bargain this year? Witness wrestling in the aisles for the sake of a reduced designer handbag? tweet us @amazingbrekky!

As always with a new week, we’ve got a new Artist of the Week in the form of straystarstuff, and a sensational new Track of the Week from The Answering Machine and the brilliant Animals which is the first single from their forthcoming second album.

Friday means only one thing here at Amazing Breakfast – Facebook Friday! As the first half of January is apparently the time when the most people are updating their CVs and looking for work, we just had to ask – what’s the worst job you’ve ever had? Georgie had the (dis)pleasure of working in a greasy spoon cafe in Birmingham, but we’re sure you’ve got some horror stories up your sleeves, so make sure you get in touch on our Facebook Page and get it off your chest. We’ve also got the final track from Artist of the Week the Voyeurist and the final play of our Track of the Week by Standard Fare.

It’s been a long time in conversation, but it finally, finally happened – Georgie has recently been chasing the trail of Abandoman – Rob Broderick and James Hancox – masters of of hip-hop styled improv comedy. She finally managed to catch Rob in London, so the interview is a field recording of sorts, but no less brilliant!

Today we’ve got an interview with the lynchpin of our dual Artists of the Week – the Voyeurist and GLDGRVZ – the lovely Sarah. Sarah spoke to us about all three projects and one more – suppressundress – about being a part of the East London scene, and finding the time for so many musical projects!

We’ve got more from our Artist of the Week, the Voyeurist, but Tuesday is, of course Twitter Tuesday – every week we ask you for your input on our chosen topic over at @amazingbrekky, and we’d love it if you’d get involved! This week in order to clear our heads of the January Blues, we thought we’d cast our minds ahead to better times, and asked you which albums you were most looking forward to hearing this year. With new ones on the cards from the likes Radiohead and the Strokes, we can’t help but cheer right up at the thought of it. What are you most anticipating hearing? Let us know!

It’s a new week, so that means everything is new with us too – a brand new Track of the Week courtesy of Sheffield’s fantastic Standard Fare – they’ve been winning much deserved accolades and praise from here, there, everywhere, and when Team Brekky heard ‘Philadelphia‘ we just had to join in, and pick it as our Track of the Week. We’ve also got a new Artist of the Week, well, artists – we’ll start with the Voyeurist, but we’ve included the different, but equally excellent GLDGRVZ into the mix – who are, in fact, Sarah and Sophie from the band’s side project. Two for the price of one!
