Is 2011 already developing into something of a golden year for music?

We’re only two months into the year but I’ve already been impressed by a huge number of records – many of them from new bands.

So settle down to this week’s edition of Bradford Beat and listen to new tunes from the likes of Young Knives, Fleet Foxes, Gang of Four, Chapel Club, Tom Williams and the Boat – not to mention Bradford’s very own flavours of the month handmandhands and Terrorvision.

Bradford Beat is on air every Thursday from 8pm to 9pm on BCB 106.6FM
