Rasp Thorne - Rochester Castle, Stoke Newington

Sharing an ashtray and a glass of bourbon with one of the most unique and charismatic musical talents around, American-born hellraiser Rasp Thorne introduces me to some friends from New York.The early nineties was awash with clean-cut, bubblegum pop acts particular of the boy band variety, but there was one modest all male trio who dared to break the mould. Renowned for penning some of the catchiest lyrics and reintroducing rock to pop, Let Loose were also one of the only UK groups of their time whose line-up could all genuinely play instruments. Their hit single �Crazy For You� charted at number 2 in 1994, but was kept from the top spot by Glaswegian crooners Wet Wet Wet and their cover of The Troggs �Love is All Around�. The band went on to release a further two albums together before calling it a day in 1997. To date the single �Crazy For You� has sold more than 600,000 copies globally and lead singer Richie Wermerling has maintained a consistent dialogue with fans online who have continued to push for a comeback. A passing comment from Take That�s Gary Barlow published in The Sun in 2008 reunited Richie and drummer Lee Murray and the group staged their first comeback gig last year. Back by popular demand the band have played numerous gigs this year and have a further three scheduled this summer. Victoria Dillingham of Music News caught up with original drummer and now father of two - Lee Murray - in his hometown of Watford to talk about the comeback, forthcoming gigs and plans for the Let Loose moving forward. In the last couple of years alone Carl Barat has embarked on a whole new solo career, released a book, tried his hand at acting, narrated a film, reformed The LibertinesLuther Grosvenor (also known as �Ariel Bender�) was one of the most inventive guitarists of his generation.Perhaps the most famous 17-year-old in the world, recording artist Justin Bieber has sold more than five million albums since releasing his first single barely more
