The bird Brother.
"at least i didn't eat them"
"you should fucking eat them"
quiet plea that we all take a moment to acknowledge that the only time Kyle came out yesterday was to rub a bag of mixed frozen vegetables over his chest then stomp while mumbling into the bathroom
and then it became a piece about kyle and no one was surprise

Charley Bickers (+Abi Wade + BirdBrother) @ Green Door Store, Brighton
BirdBrother, a 60s inspired folkrock once duo now quartet. They play songs very true to their taste and inspirations, though for me their best moment was their cover of Dead Flowers. Authentic, alright, not too exciting.
Abi Wade was the reason why me and a friend went to this gig. Her set of songs (most of them on her cello, and two on e-piano) was the best and most innovative performance of the night. She's not only playing her cello, but simultaneously providing percussions: each foot is busy playing a drum and a tambourine, her hand switches between slapping or picking the strings and knocking, beating or scratching the cello's body. She brought people closer to the stage and even caught the attention of the earlier steadily murmuring crowd in the back. An exciting performance, a charming artist with admittedly whiskey fused braveness. Rob Orchard took a nice picture of her performing.
Charley Bickers' folky songs seem to be - similar to BirdBrother - stuck in a certain music period: Bickers' looks and his music are very indie Brit pop, in spirit a distant cousin of the late Paul Weller. He played with a band of three, but took great care to stay in control of it all, creating funny moments like wandering back and fro between the pedal for the smoke machine and the microphone instead of leaving the fog control to the bass player next to the machine. Very pop, a bit monotonous after a while, answered by a constantly growing murmuring from the audience.
