Laura Marling @ Birmingham Cathedral, Saturday 29th October

In Depth by Sam Cleeve

I think it's fair to say that I encountered Laura Marling earlier than most. Attending the same secondary school as her at a relatively similar time meant that the first time that I saw her play was actually in a school assembly. Not that that grants me a»

Glastonbury 2011: The DiS Highlights

In Depth by Rory Gibb

With a weekend of Glastonbury's sheer magnitude, it's nigh on impossible to try and capture everything within a single review - although we've made a fair attempt with our Glastonbury Diary. Here we offer DiS writers' musical highlights of the festival, from the audiovisual showdown that was Beyonce's Sunday night headline set to Radiohead's 'secret' set and psychedelic dance-pop from Caribou.»

In Depth by James Skinner

Kicking off a week dedicated "solo" artists, is James Skinner's look at the most traditional of "solo" musician, that easily defined beast that is the singer-songwriter... He says: It’s a term that will send many music fans scarpering; one that a lot of singer-songwriters are seemingly tired of hearing themselves.

This Week's Singles: 10/05/10

In Depth by Wendy Roby

This week I am fairly sure there is something for everyone. Even if you don't like Xenomania at their most shiny, or insanely pretty indie pop, or singles that wouldn't sound out of place at Wigan Casino (even though they come from Tel Aviv). Also, someone, somewhere, is going to really regret giving me access to high res, press-only images of Tom Out Of Keane. »

Lightspeed Champion & London's Alt Country Scene

In Depth by Chris Nicholls

What is it about the country and folk modes that make them prime conduits for the disaffection and heartbreak of our nation's youth?

DiScover: Laura Marling

In Depth by Tom King
