BERRIES - CroCroLand Festival, Croydon - 06/04/2019

The inaugural CroCroland. What a great festival! 2 stages and a whole shed load of great bands. 

A brilliantly gender balanced festival. If people say they don’t know of any predominantly female bands - tell them to look at the bill for this festival and think again.

THE SCAVENGERS - Trafalgar Str, Brighton. 09/0202019

We managed to squeeze in a few snaps before a gig at The Albert. Under the railway arches at Trafalgar Street, primarily because it was raining.

From now on...

All the pictures currently posted within this blog are a history of the gigs I’ve been to and the bands i’ve seen.

I’m going to post some archive stuff alongside some selective gig pics - and maybe a bit more colour. Who knows?

WHITE ROOM - Vinyl Revolution, Brighton - Record Store Day 21/04/2018.

WHITE ROOM ‘annoying’ the neighbours in Duke Street as a stripped down version of the band played a short set outside in the sunshine. 

The audience were treated to two new tunes ‘Red Stripes’ and a song that didn’t have a name at the time of posting. Decent tunes that will fit in well with their current catalogue. 

WHITE ROOM were there to promote ‘Eight’ which is available on vinyl and was for sale on RSD2018.

For this performance WHITE ROOM were; Jacob Newman (guitar), Josie McNamara (bass) and Jimi Smalls (guitar & vocals)  

‘Eight’ is available from here: http://www.whiteroomhq.com/shop/

MUDLOW - The Prince Albert, Brighton. 13/04/2018.

An album launch for retrospective album ‘Waiting for the tide to rise.’

It’s an album chock full of the sort of heart-achingly beautiful, growling menace and soulful blues that you don’t hear often. They are a one off. 

I was asked to provide some pictures for the inside of the album and the MUDLOW chaps chose these. (i know! Colour pics again)

MUDLOW are Tobias (guitar & vocals), Matt Latcham (drums) and Paul Pascoe (bass).

The album is available here; http://www.mudlow.co.uk/store/

THE BLACK DELTA MOVEMENT - The Hope & Ruin, Brighton 06/04/2018.

THE BLACK DELTA MOVEMENT are out and about promoting their new album ‘PRESERVATION’ (you should get a copy because it really is very good). They did a couple of gigs as a warm up for their European jaunt later in April/May. The Brighton one was as support to St.Agnes.

THE BLACK DELTA MOVEMENT have recently changed their whole rhythm section, which may make you think that they would struggle to play with the power they have done in the past. You would be absolutely WRONG. They were as thumpingly grand as you would expect.

THE BLACK DELTA MOVEMENT are now: Matt Burr (guitar & vocals), Dominic Abbott (guitar), Sarah Shiels (bass) and Carlos Macklin (drums).

PRESERVATION can be bought here; https://theblackdeltamovement.bandcamp.com/
