Gallery brings you An Evening of Music and Lights
Live and experimental music- Thursday 8th May 7pm £5
SON OF DAVE - Bizarro Lead singer/harmonica player is really creepy like
a depraved, rat-faced moron.... Sings through his harp... does the creepiest
little kid voice... if Beck did this, it would be coolChart Magazine
COMFY MOSS - Comfy Moss are a four, five or three piece; they haven't
kept the same line up for more than two gigs. And it's this jumble of
parts and ideas that keeps them from going round in circles. It's a sound
that reminds you of where you came from, the kind of wide open space that
is both personal and everyday.
KEITH JOHN ADAMS - Keith John Adams has been making music first in an
acoustic/drums/violin
outfit called the Horse Doctors, then for the whole of the nineties in
the Zuno men the success of these two bands was just too much to bear-
so KJA kicked off the millenium as a single musical unit.
FATHER OF BOON - Father Of Boon are a fiendishly original collective from
East London who
deal in rambling, impish noiserock with added samples and saxophone. Nodding
to the likes of Gang Of Four, Red Snapper and Pavement. Wearing yesterday’s
clothes and making the music of tomorrow.
