well. Make sure you stay tuned in to

18:09

6 Music all of this week, especially

18:12

on Thursday to hear the live

18:14

gig first. Okay,

18:16

Track of the Week time on the

18:18

show and this one is a spectacular

18:21

debut single from Manchester band Westside Cowboy.

18:23

Now the track is called I've Never

18:25

Met Anyone I Thought I Could Really

18:27

Love Until Now and it has got

18:29

such a raucous and raw

18:32

sound that really captured my attention when

18:34

I listened to it a few, I think

18:36

it was like a week or so ago now. I've been

18:39

so behind on playing new music because we've had so

18:41

much going on. But yeah, so this

18:43

is our Track of the Week for this week.

18:45

A lot of people seem to be loving this

18:47

band at the minute. They've recently signed to Nice

18:49

One which can only mean good things and

18:52

yeah, they're getting quite a bit of

18:55

buzz already off this single which was

18:57

produced by English teachers Lewis Whitting by

18:59

the way. I'm getting a bit of

19:01

a Pixies-esque vibe from the track. Also

19:03

weirdly, the harmonies kind of remind me

19:05

of Divorce a bit. But let's get

19:07

this on there. My Track of the

19:09

Week this week on 6 Music on

19:11

the Introducing Mixtape. It is Westside Cowboy

19:13

and I've never met anyone I thought

19:15

I could really love until now. The

19:19

BBC introducing Track of the Week. The

19:50

song is in the middle of the

19:52

night Unless

19:55

the song works out

20:00

But that type of luck

20:02

don't happen to blokes

20:05

like me Remember

20:14

the scene The

20:17

place you love is so

20:20

violently Never

20:24

find the words Never

20:27

stop and speak From

20:34

the dirt in your nails To

20:38

the way on your knees

20:43

I've never met anyone I

20:45

thought I could really love To

20:50

match you I've

20:54

never met anyone I thought I could really love You

20:58

know what's so harsh

21:03

In this pinstripe

21:05

car park Don't

21:09

leave the engine home And

21:12

never stop What

21:17

did you think was so natural In

21:22

your days to the

21:25

end You're

21:27

watching, I've never

21:30

felt anyone I thought

21:32

I could really love To

21:35

match you Don't

21:39

leave the engine home

21:43

And never stop What

21:47

did you think was so natural Don't

21:51

leave the engine home Don't

21:55

leave the engine

21:58

home My

22:01

track of the week this week, that is Westside

22:03

Cowboy and I've never met anyone I thought I

22:05

could really love until now on 6 Music. They've

22:08

got a sold out show at the Castle in

22:10

Manchester coming up on the

22:12

3rd of December. Eager to see

22:14

that lot live. I saw some Instagram stories

22:16

of them supporting English teacher the other week and

22:19

it looked like an unreal live show.

22:21

So fingers crossed for some more live

22:23

dates in the new year. Got some

22:25

live music on the way for you

22:28

from our stage at Live at Leeds

22:30

Festival but now I've got this for

22:32

you from Exeter Band Die Twice. I

22:35

think this is also track of the week worthy you know. It's

22:38

an epic 5 minute tune from Die Twice.

22:41

The 5th and final track from their EP

22:43

A Beautiful Thing. A special

22:45

track this one called Eventually. We

23:01

sit inside and you take a drink

23:03

and I take a sip and

23:06

we collide like a speech

23:09

zip your lips stone for

23:11

words and fall inside. Your

23:27

innocence is losing faith

23:29

how does it feel how does it

23:31

taste we peek outside

23:34

your hairs are pressed you

23:37

move your mind and zip

23:39

your dress the lonely face

23:41

intensifies pretty

23:55

girls they bleed the eye sexy

23:58

rinks leather shoes,

24:01

where do we go? Your

24:03

place on the line She

24:17

can't decide, she tells me that

24:19

the moon will go into the sky The

24:22

killer night, she was right,

24:24

she was right, she was

24:27

right Sex

24:33

and reflection,

24:36

strength and

24:38

affection, I

24:40

didn't know

24:42

who I

24:44

would eventually

24:46

leave Snowfall

24:49

fell as we caught our

24:51

minds at the peak of

24:53

spring Filtered

24:56

water and screams,

24:59

careless whisper

25:01

while driving over the

25:03

river The

25:06

map of Italy, a place we lost ourselves, the duvet came to the floor Grace,

25:27

grace, time will forever be a memory I

25:35

refuse to spoil its legacy, it made us

25:37

both grow apart eventually, but it was both

25:39

fields of time I

25:46

was too seriously and seriously alone, I wouldn't change it for anything,

25:48

consider it perfection Simple

26:30

lips, no words, sort of signs For

26:35

innocence, this losing fate How

26:38

does it feel, how does it taste Through

26:41

the outside, your hands are met No

26:44

boots arise, a simple trick No

26:46

only face, it's as divine As

26:50

pretty as he goes, in the eye As

26:54

axy ranks, like leather shoes Where

26:57

do we go, your place of mind She

27:00

can't decide, she tells me that The

27:03

girlfriend's in the sky She was

27:05

right, she was right A

27:08

steal was right, a steal was

27:10

right Thank

27:57

you for watching!

28:30

Look back, it's like he

28:32

knows Is it my feathers

28:34

inside me That

28:37

I'm too afraid to face So

28:41

I won't let him remind

28:43

me That

28:45

nobody hears us say Nobody

28:48

hears us say Nobody

28:52

hears us say Oh,

29:02

oh, oh, oh, oh Freaking

29:05

out in the space between two

29:07

worlds Not asleep,

29:09

not awake, my mind unfolds

29:12

So I wait at the

29:14

cup and catch my breath

29:17

Then I shut up by the door

29:19

when I see him there Cause

29:21

there's no madness inside me

29:25

That I'm too afraid to

29:27

face So

29:29

I won't let him remind

29:31

me That

29:33

nobody hears us say Nobody

29:36

hears us say Nails

29:53

on the short foot The

29:57

wind of the frugal wind I'm

30:01

talking to an empty room

30:05

Feeling looking back at you

30:09

Mails on a choke hold Feeling

30:13

like they're talking I'm

30:16

talking to an empty

30:19

room Feeling

30:21

looking back at you Silencing,

30:26

silencing Humpty kept for

30:28

me to be Silencing,

30:30

silencing Humpty kept for me to

30:32

be Silencing, silencing

30:35

Humpty kept for me to be Silencing,

30:37

silencing Humpty kept for me

30:40

to be Because in my

30:42

furthest inside room But

30:45

I'm simply afraid to go with

30:47

this So I

30:49

won't let him remind me

30:53

And nobody here is

30:55

sane Nobody here is

30:57

31:34

let's get some live music on the

31:36

Introducing Mixtape this week, shall we? So

31:39

I was at Live at Leeds the other

31:41

weekend with my local BBC Introducing team Like

31:43

I said earlier, we have been showcasing Putting

31:47

on a showcase of BBC Introducing

31:49

artists at Live at Leeds for the past five

31:51

or six years, I think We've

31:54

curated the stage, curated the line-up at a

31:56

Porto, which is a venue down in Leeds,

31:59

down court lane, a venue that is

32:01

really, really good for up and coming

32:03

artists actually. It's quite a small space

32:07

and yeah, it's always, it's nice when you

32:09

go to a gig and it always kind

32:11

of feels a bit packed out. So yeah,

32:13

we always take over a Porto and have

32:15

Axe on that we've been supporting on our

32:17

local BBC introducing show and Leeds and Sheffield,

32:19

but also we like to invite Axe from

32:21

further afield that have also been supported by

32:23

introducing to us to come and play our stage.

32:25

And it was a brilliant, brilliant day. We describe

32:27

it actually, my team

32:30

described it as Leeds Music Industries

32:32

Christmas Live at Leeds. It

32:34

was a really nice day. We had so many amazing

32:36

artists playing for us. All of them put

32:39

on some excellent sets and it was a bit of

32:41

everything really that we chucked out the lineup

32:43

this time round. So yeah, I've got loads

32:45

of live music to get through. But

32:47

we're going to start off with

32:50

live music from guest singer who opened

32:52

our stage at midday. A stellar

32:54

way to start the show actually with

32:56

guest singer, just some really great, synthy

32:59

goodness to wake everyone up. And I'd

33:01

put guest singer on before actually at

33:03

a Porto years and years and years

33:05

and years ago when I used

33:08

to put gigs on and they blew me away

33:10

then. And they did again on

33:13

Saturday, a couple of Saturdays ago when we were at

33:15

live at Leeds. So yeah, we've got

33:17

some live music to play from guest singer right

33:20

after I catch up with guest singer.

33:22

So I caught up with guest

33:24

singer after their set to find out how it

33:26

was for them and how it was to be

33:29

back at Porto. It's great to be

33:31

here. We've played it. Last time we played it

33:33

was for you, which was one of

33:35

the first guest singer gigs, I think. So

33:38

it's nice to come round

33:40

like three, four

33:43

EPs down the line. We're back here. So yeah, no, it's lovely.

33:46

I remember that set actually, because you played, yeah, I

33:48

used to put on gigs here at Porto and you

33:50

played for me and I remember, or I

33:52

think I'm remembering correctly, you had like a sequin

33:56

jacket on and now you're wearing a jacket

33:58

with tassels. So I feel like really

34:00

keeping up the jacket game. I've

34:02

always had a, I suppose you

34:04

could call it a fetish for

34:07

jackets. Yeah

34:09

and I think the sequin only sort of

34:11

only felt right for that four

34:14

set of songs. If it had carried on it

34:16

yeah it just didn't feel right so yeah no

34:18

I'm always on the lookout for a nice jacket

34:20

if you know anyone but selling them. I'm

34:23

loving the new stuff. I feel like obviously I was

34:25

a big fan of the the earlier stuff when I

34:27

got you on on the show that you did for

34:29

us a while ago but it all sounds so much

34:31

bigger now. Was that purposeful? I think

34:35

yeah possibly I think it we just wanted it

34:38

to sound whereas before we sort

34:40

of hid really sad

34:42

and depressing lyrics underneath quiet

34:45

upbeat and happy tunes or

34:47

more I don't know positive like sort

34:49

of melodically

34:51

positive tunes whereas this

34:53

time round it's just like well now let's just try

34:55

and make it as sad and

34:58

dark and dancey as possible. Let

35:29

me stop, I wanna get off, let

35:32

me stop, I wanna get off, let

35:34

me stop, I wanna get off, let

35:36

me stop You

35:39

work your class, pause and play

35:41

with the sickly kids, you're out

35:43

anyway, we're surely paying for

35:45

it. And those fewer

35:48

empty hands compare these muscles that you're

35:50

there to our Right

36:00

now The

36:04

time sits on

36:06

earth I'm

36:08

as cautious as you are right

36:10

now I

36:13

need to swim To

36:15

the beach, to the beach,

36:17

to the beach To the

36:19

beach, to the beach, to

36:21

the beach I need to

36:24

resist Deep

36:26

down inside, I like to think you

36:28

saved me But I

36:30

just did too, the exit's fine Pushed

36:33

my way to the edge Along

36:36

with all the other sides Feels they were

36:38

front and front flips Just

36:40

to further their careers And I do

36:42

the same The moral price is

36:44

too much to fear I'm

36:47

honestly happy we're just being alive I'm

36:50

gonna melt through the wind Through the wind, through the

36:53

37:42

I'm wondering if you still felt a sense

37:44
