MUSIC MEMORIES | Moments in Photo

One of the reasons I find myself very poor a week after pay-day is because I always find a Gig or Festival to go to (I've come to find that tickets for such events go on sale the same day I get paid... Coincidence?!) ! I wish I'd have been able to write about my gig memories as and when I've been to them, but instead I'll leave you with some snaps of my favourite music memories!

* Two Door Cinema Club's Alex Trimble * Brandon Flowers (AKA Future husband) KILLING it * Meeting Sleeping with Sirens * Bastille Dan staring out my camera eeep * Zayn Malik * Selfie with 1D! * Imagine Dragons * Matt Healy looking fineeee! * Shoulder ride during Calvin Harris at V Fest 2013 * Matt Healy taking selfies with the crowd *

I have one music memory that I absolutely love and I'm pretty sure it cannot be beaten. When I went to see You Me At Six for the first time, me and my best friend waited outside the arena for 5 hours to see them. It was worth the long wait as we were the first 300 people to get in, which meant that we were going to be involved in a video for the final song and we had no idea about it! We had our photo taken holding lyrics to this final song and the image was projected onto the stage during the band playing it live! Bad quality but yes, that is me and my friend on screen, and yes that is Josh Franceschi in the corner!!! I almost died, best moment ever!

These are just a few of my favourite photos taken when I've been out gallivanting, its great to look back and reminisce over these times! Do you have any super epic music memories?!

Anticipated Albums of 2015

Anybody that knows me well will know that I have a little obsession with all things music related and sometimes, bands make me that excited, I cry. Yes, okay, I am a HUGE fan girl. I thought it'd be a cool idea to share with you the albums I'm very excited for that are due to be released in 2015.

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds

Noelly G and the High Flying Birds are back on the scene and I am incredibly excited for the release of his new album, "Chasing Yesterday" in March. I really love his previous album (named Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds) so I have big expectations for Chasing Yesterday. After the release of his first single off the new album, "In the heat of the moment", I already know its going to be fantastic! Such a great song, roll on March!

Imagine Dragons

This band. Oh my god. Night Visions is one of my all time favourite albums and when I found out they were working on a new 2015 album, I freaked! It's titled "Smoke and Mirrors" and if its anything like Night Visions I'm going to have a heart attack I swear! So excited to hear some news on this upcoming album!

Brandon Flowers

The Killers are currently on hiatus (cry cry) and Mr Flowers has recently been working on a solo album. The album name and release date is still to be confirmed. I have a little obsession with The Killers and I absolutely adore Brandon's vocal range so I am super excited to hear what he's been creating after a 5 year break since his previous solo album "Flamingo". 

Bring Me The Horizon

I've not always been a BMTH fan, but ever since I've discovered Sempiternal I've begun to really love this band. I first found out about Sempiternal after hearing "Can You Feel My Heart" on the radio and ever since I've been obsessed with the album, which is why I'm super excited to see what 2015 will bring for this band! They've released a new single titled "Drown" and I absolutely love this song. It's not as heavy as I was expecting and from reading up I've heard lots of different opinions based on this, but nonetheless I really bloody love this song and fair play to the band for trying out something different! I also know they've released a single named "Don't Look Down" and ok, I'm going to admit when the song first kicked in I wasn't sure if I liked it, but after listening to it more times its grown on me!

I hope you enjoyed reading this post! Are there any particular albums you're excited about this year?!
