Three parts Welsh and one part English, Love Bazaar are a band based in and around Cardiff.

Heavily influenced by acts including Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Queens of the Stone Age, My Bloody Valentine, Interpol and many others, the seemingly coordinated series of rhythmic and tonal noises they produce come together to form reverb-drenched soundscapes that can either be described as Psychedelic rock, Shoegaze, or just white noise.

They released their debut E.P. in November 2014.

The Music Project in a nutshell

This is the music project explained in a nutshell

The Pulsing Light Foundation is a unique business project, firstly it is going to run its own charitable project that helps people who are terminally ill or have a life threatening medical condition achieve their life long dreams and goals, just like charities like the 'Make-a-wish foundation' but the PLF don't do this for children, instead they help adults (people 18 or over).

Now to explain the music project. The PLF are trying to help get real talent seen by industry people and the general public. Today what most bands and solo singers need is to be seen, heard and promoted, and that is precisely what the PLF are trying to do. We see ourselves as a bridge, or a stepping stone to help bands and solo singers get spotted, seen and get their lucky break into the music industry.

The PLF is not a big company and we want to keep this project small (but not too small), but we are an international growing business project. And our aim is to help everyone who gets involved with us, we want our success rate to be as high as possible.

The music project specialises in supplying music, both new original material and cover versions, to film and television companies, getting your music heard and featured in a film or television show is a fantastic way of getting heard and discovered internationally! We also supply music to advertising people, who make adverts. The PLF also plan on releasing their own documentary dvd featuring the best unsigned talent in the country. This will be released to the public and sent out to different industry people in the hope of getting them signed. This is being seen as an alternative to fake shows like the X FACTOR and the Voice! And if it takes off a possible rival to those shows.

 On top of all of the above the PLF will also be casting for different music television shows. The PLF is an exciting new music project!
