1.
Charlie Cunningham
With a Spanish flamenco influence woven into a brilliant
vocal delivery, Bedfordshire UK’s Charlie Cunningham is capturing audiences
across the UK and beyond.
Charlie has an engaging style of acoustic folk that entices
a reflective ambience within the listener, which is so very well demonstrated
in the tracks below.
“Telling it wrong” first caught my attention on “The
Mahogany Sessions” in June 2015 and right from the first few notes I knew I was
in for something special, holy man was that an understatement. I’ve included
that video recording as well as the studio version below, which was just
released on April 08th, 2016
on his 4 song EP “Heights Released”. It must be said that Charlie Cunningham’s
music is a must listen for serious music fans.
Be sure to check out Charlie’s social links, give the thumbs
up, subscribe and say “Hi”. You can pick up Charlies music on iTunes and
Bandcamp. (All links provided below)

the crowd with a soft engaging vocal pitch to draw the audience towards his
unmistaken aura for being one of the good guys, something you will hear and

Thom Worth
Today’s third artist is the amazing Thom Worth from Kingston
on Thames UK.
I found Thom recently on a promotional YouTube channel
called “Ont’ Sofa” where he knocked my socks off with his new song “Oh!
Lucinda”. The first thing I noticed was his vocal range and as I sat there
listening, I though, “My god this is fantastic Music!”…well I was hooked and
decided to look into more of his music and was very impressed with what I
found. I think you will be too. Have a listen to Thom’s new song “Oh! Lucinda”
below… What a great way to drive this 2016 spring into summer, which I have no
doubt you will be hearing this song all over the place.
Thom’s debut EP “Meet Me Tonight” was released on Bandcamp
in March 2015 to rave reviews following a busy 2014 tour, playing stages at
Green Man, Victorious and The Isle of Wight Festivals. Thom had an array of
gifted musicians playing with him on the EP to help produce his rich and unique
sound, including Josh Phillips from Procol Harum. I truly enjoyed this EP and
I’m pleased to share it with you here as well.
Don’t forget to visit Thom’s social pages (See links below)
to find out what he’s up to, when he’s touring, and also to say “Hi!” You can
pick up Thom’s music at Bandcamp.

Flamin’ Groovies
What better way to end this edition of United Music mag than
to have the “Flamin’ Groovies” jump out at you with their brand new song “Crazy
Macy”. Rock n Roll is back and Flamin groovy man! Yes they are back and coming
to a city near you so be sure to check out their Tour schedule and catch their
show.
What started as a reunion in 2013 with tours of Japan,
Australia, and the UK, has continued and evolved into a full blown return in
full force of the FLAMIN GROOVIES. In the past two years the band has toured
the USA extensively with repeated visits to New York, L.A. and their hometown
of San Francisco, recently returned from a hugely successful tour of Spain,
France and Italy. In anticipation of their 50th Anniversary in 2016, they are
now putting the finishing touches on a new album, a documentary film, and are
about to drop a single this year, their first new recordings in over thirty
years…and here it is! “Crazy Macy”
The Cyril Jordan, Chris Wilson, George Alexander line-up
featured on the three albums released by Sire Records, that rocked the UK,
Europe and the US from 1971 - 1980 are BACK IN ACTION. With the addition of
Victor Penalosa on drums, continue to present their own unique and infectious
style of rock n roll with such cult classics as "Shake Some Action",
"Slow Death," and "Teenage Head”.
The debut track from The Flamin' Groovies' forthcoming
studio album marks the first Cyril Jordan/Chris Wilson-penned song released
since 1979! And what a great song it is!
Be sure to check out the “Flamin’ Groovies” on their social
links to find out what they’re up to, when they’re on tour, and of course to
say “Hi”!
