Stefan Pappert, chef at Wembley Stadium, has seen them all, cooked for them all – the greats of music and sports history. As if that wasn’t enough of a challenge, cooking for 80,000 spectators and world stars at the same time, Stefan goes one better. With his friendly, open-minded nature and his individual approach to cooking, he is a regular guest of the royals.

Sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll? That’s true of very few rock stars in this day and age. “The Rhapsody” tour by Queen started on July 10, 2019 and would have actually lasted almost 1000 days until the giant finale on July 18, 2022. To get through such mammoth tours at all physically and mentally, bands, tour managers, the team behind the team and the musicians themselves have relied for years on good, balanced and substantial food and drink…

„McGee: We’re the punk rock version of The Streets…“

The Clockworks – Band introduction

The Clockworks was formed in 2019 in Galway on the west coast of Ireland and consists of musicians James McGregor – vocals, guitar, Sean Connelly – guitar, Damian Greaney – drums and Tom Feeman – bass.

“McGee: We’re the punk rock version of The Streets“: That was the guys’ Instagram message to Alan McGee, who gave the initial push to greats like Oasis and Primal Scream, among others. “I like working with ballsy people, and they’re little hustlers” and so he signed the quartet to his Creation23 record label immediately after their move to London.

Performances as support act, among others for Kings of Leon at Sefton Park in Liverpool, various radio shows and festival appearances, among others at Eurosonic in the Netherlands, have quickly given the band a large fan base. As of today: Already 5155 followers and 19,0400 monthly listeners on Spotify.

Review

Feels So Real is a mixture of Britpop and Indie rock with punky elements. Linear, true to the genre and living from the titular hook – “Feels So Real”, the song moves in a rather compact soundscape and hardly leaves it noticeably. All in all a number worth listening to, but it doesn’t come close to songs like Can I Speak to a Manager?

``The best rehearsal I have seen since the 90s with Oasis is The Clockworks. What a band…``- Alan McGee
