Our guest will be Jez from the Birmingham Music Archive and we’re going to pick our favourite Birmingham music gems. But. We’re going to turn half the show over to you — to pick your favourite brum bands and songs.

You can suggest anything you like, but we’ll not be deviating too far from the Big Paws policy of playing brand new tunes and obscure classics — so try and think of something that we and our audience might not have heard before.

This article is about culture and the arts in the city of Birmingham, England. It covers both notable history and notable contemporary activities

it’s a work in progress but they want people to add there own content. There is a fairly good list of bands on there already

June has been declared to be Brum Music Month – a month-long celebration of all things Birmingham Music.

Do with that what you will. We're just trying to encourage activities, events, t-shirts, media coverage, free compilation releases, film screenings, photography exhibitions – anything you can think of that will help commemorate Brum Music Month.

Keep an eye on the site for developments, music videos, announcements and more… but most importantly – get involved!

We're not organising Brum Music Month – YOU ARE!

Last Under The Sun will be played and discussed on the June 3rd edition of METAL TIME on BASEMENTSOUND RADIO which can be heard this Wednesday June 3rd 8pm GMT on www.basementsound.co.uk

The following bands all feature on the show –
LAST UNDER THE SUN
