I am delighted to announce that there will be a night worthy of laudation to benefit Cardiacs mastermind Tim Smith, taking place at the Brixton Windmill on Friday 3rd February 2012. For those of you who don’t know, Tim suffered a heart attack following one of the My Bloody Valentine gigs he attended back in 2008. This was followed by not one but two debilitating strokes. Fans and friends alike have been organising benefits to help contribute towards the costly care that Tim needs. So please, attend our evening so we can do a little towards helping raise funds for this plucky lad.
The lineup includes the following illustrious acts: William D. Drake and band, Barringtone (ex-Clor), The Trudy, Ham Legion, Bug Prentice, and Claire Lemmon (Sidi Bou Said). The DJ for the evening will be Knifeworld frontman and former Cardiacs guitarist Kavus Torabi.
