Just listened again to Three EPs and Hot Shots II for the first time in ages and was reminded what an amazing band they wrre. Their "last gig" at Manchester Academy was possibly the closest I've come to a religious experience and will stay with forever.

Any bands coming close to this invention yet accessibility at the moment?

Well there’s The Aliens, really enjoyed the Luna album. But it came out ten years ago!

Great album and a great live band. 

Steve Masons solo stuff and gigs have been really good too.

Superorganism are worth a listen

try lost map records / pictish trail or some of the fence collective stuff for more acoustic - all good 

Thanks! Will check each of these out!

'I will now sell four copies of "The Three EPs" by The Beta Band.'

Actually, dry the rain was the only track I really liked of the BB

Yep agree, his recent album 'meet the humans' is absolute quality

Yes, I still miss The Beta Band, great stuff. Hard being tipped as the great hopes for the future I guess.
