Dirty Blonde are one of the best emerging alternative-rock bands from Manchester, having grabbed the attention of industry professionals at BBC Radio 1 and Radio X. Their debut EP ‘Favourite Record’ opened up many doors for them on the UK live music scene, and were recently praised as: “one of the most exciting acts to come through Radio 1’s Future Alternative”.
Spill The Sound Music Series
Filmed at The Yard Mcr, a stunning former Victorian school in Cheetham Hill, Spill The Sound is produced by Laura Graham from StreamGM, and gives acts the opportunity to film high quality live performances, and light hearted music interviews.

Show creator Louise Schofield blends playful antics like interviews in a bathtub full of balls and hook-a-duck Q&As with electrifying live music, creating a fresh, bright take on the current indie music scene.
The show also gives valuable hands-on experience and credits to local budding production professionals and music technology students.
About filming Spill The Sound with StreamGM, Dirty Blonde’s Hayley Tait and Ailis Mackay said: “StreamGM is a game-changer because it gives Northern bands a chance to show off their talent based on skill, not who has the money. Most of these opportunities are paid for by bands or tend to happen down south, so being able to perform professionally recorded music sessions and be filmed for a digital audience is huge. Louise is also amazing at what she does and really knows her stuff when it comes to researching the bands!”

Solo artist, Megan Wyn continued: “StreamGM gives a huge opportunity for local artists like myself to reach new online audiences and music fans through Spill The Sound, the show was such great experience to film.
“I enjoyed being a part of such a big production and getting to work with such a down-to-earth and professional crew. I loved that StreamGM allowed me to be creative by letting me decide and perform a cover. I chose Camelphat & AuRa’s Panic Room, which is originally a dance track! I also got to showcase my own original music. The interview with Louise was so much fun and different from any other interview I’ve done!

We’ve a vibrant, TV ready show thanks to StreamGM’s guidance and standard of production. The show is the best it can possibly be !
“Viewers are in for a belter, with the introduction of cover tracks carefully chosen and performed by each artist taking part on the show.
