Talking of ATP...

...we saw the afformentioned Josh T Pearson at the Brudenell last night. Wow.

His band thuded away at our chests and made splendid music in our ears. He's somewhere between Iggy Pop, My Bloody Valentine and A Silver Mt. Zion yet nothing like any of them.

Oh. He also has possibly the greatest beard on the planet.

A weekend at ATP

It's our first band outing to ATP at the end of this week. Curated by the Dirty Three we're in for a lot of fun watching some seriously dark and depressing (yet strangley uplifting) bands playing in the cheesy family surroundings of Butlins in Minehead.

We'll be with the likes of Low, Silver Mt. Zion, Nick Cave, Cat Power, Spiritulized, Smog, The Devastations, Josh Pearson and Joanna Newsom amongst others. We can't wait.

Wakefield with Samsa

We're haven't been around much lately due to holidays and the like.

But we're gigging tonight in Wakefield. On with Samsa again. Good band with a good new single to come out very soon.
