Band a Day for Birmingham Music Month – June 30th

Athletico Spizz 80 – Effortless Do A Runner And that’s it, a full month of Brum music videos — loads of bands I’d have liked to have picked had no YouTubery to embed, but what’s even more remarkable is that we’ve got through the month without repeating what’s been on the Brum Music Month blog (a couple of bands perhaps…).
