I guess a few patrons of these boards are already coming but anyway here's the hype stuff: SHOT BY BOTH SIDES - THURSDAY 17TH SEPTEMBER 'Essentially an evil indie disco…a darn sight darker than most' - Guardian Guide www.myspace.com/shotbybothsidesclub Shot By Both Sides – London's premier purveyors of arcane, outlandish and fantastical musical delights - have risen from the grave. This reanimated corpse shambles into life once more, on Thursday 17th September, at the ever-splendid Brixton Windmill. Expect a thrilling soundtrack of wonky psych, gritty '60s garage, gnarled folk, freakout jazz, C86 indie and Northern Soul, poetry, stories, free ‘zines, various handouts, literature/tape exchange, some peculiar visual treats, cakes, a few out-of-the-hat surprises and some sensational live sets from the following… THE MULES The ‘electrobilly’ purveyors grace ShotByBothSides once more, playing a rare London show. With a sound set somewhere between ‘rinky-dink tin-pot jug-band’ and ‘knees-up Croat wedding group’, this show will feature songs from their forthcoming second LP. 'A charming, beautiful mess...The Mules sprint across as many genres as they can...Bonkers but brilliant.' - The Guardian 'An off-beam collision of barn dance, psychedelic whimsy and scratchy funk...Their exuberance was as compelling as their jerky pile-ups were contagious' - Time Out ...Matching their respect for Taking Heads, Gang of Four and Pere Ubu with a love of skiffle, hillbilly and music hall...an inventive blast – Uncut Some of the most frenzied, unclassifiable party music that you will ever hear- Drowned In Sound www.myspace.com/itsthemules THE BRIDPORT DAGGER (London) Bassless, flamenco/garage-folk trio. Rockabilly leanings, stamping primeval drums and a touch of mid-80s gloom abound. Short, sharp and dramatic; a visceral live experience. 'The literary works of Edgar Alan Poe being soundtracked by your favourite early Echo & The Bunnymen tracks'- God Is In The TV 'A swamp-rock rockabilly rumble...dangerously catchy' - SoundsXP www.myspace.com/thebridportdagger NASEBY FOX (London) Flitting between sharp-tongued diatribes and droll murder ballads, the wonderfully moustachioed Naseby Fox fronts a quiet riot of piano, accordion and more besides. Never has such a grand, Vaudevillian spectacle graced the streets of Brixton. www.myspace.com/nasebyfox MARMADUKE DANDO (London) Fantastically-named Holloway-based singer - and self-confessed writer of 'morose ballads' - brings his magnificent jazz-flecked chamber-pop to Brixton. Both flamboyant and mannered, his elaborate vocal stylings and playful songs draw as much influence from Alexander Pushkin and DH Lawrence as Bowie and Joe Jackson. www.myspace.com/marmadukedando Plus Shot By Both Sides DJs All this for a bargain £4 or a stupid £3 in advance.... www.wegottickets.com/event/56482 |
