| Post subject: | Backstreets III @ the Windmill 5th Oct |
BACKSTREETS is an occasional club night run by the writers at rockbeatstone magazine. Previous headliners have been Prinzhorn Dance School and The Mules so you know to expect something hot and on the pulse... CAPTAIN BLACK (London) This year they've toured the UK with the Maccabees and received BBC Radio One airplay thanks to Colin Murray who is a fan. Mixing elements of country, skiffle, punk and pop they live outside any musical scene and their electric live shows have seen them build a large fan base. Perfect Friday night music to get drunk and shake your ass to. www.myspace.com/captainblack RESTLESSLIST (Brighton) Perhaps the most original band in yonks... The brainchild of Matt Thwaits (Electric Soft Parade) and Ben Elliot, the line-up was expanded to include Tom White (The Brakes, Electric Soft Parade) and the band Zettasaur. Their debut album, 'The Rise and Fall of the Curtain Club' was released in June on Life is Easy Records and they've toured with Battles and Mystery Jets. Sounds like a madman on crack at some horrific funfair. Has to be heard, and seen, to be believed. www.myspace.com/restlesslist IT HUGS BACK (Kent) Kent's finest muscial export bring their country rock influenced tunes back to the Windmill. Mixing elements of Wilco and Sonic Youth, they flirt between country-punk rock and melancholia in a heart-beat. They've had a busy year recording a session for Rob DaBank on BBC Radio One, playing the Bestival and End of the Road festivals in September. They've recently released a new single 'Carefully' on Too Pure Records. www.myspace.com/ithugsback ALPHABET BACKWARDS (Oxford) Windmill debut for this Oxford band who mix nu-folk, country and pop and craft intimate yet atmospheric tunes. One to keep an eye out for in the future. www.myspace.com/alphabetbackwards ADVANCE TICKETS (£4) www.wegottickets.com/event/21857 |
