[Music] The Live Music thread

[spring hall convert]

Think I might have found a new obsession.

For a long time I've been saying that since broadband became easily available and kids had this ubiquitous access to all the music ever produced, we should start seeing some young artists who are swallowing the history of recorded music mixing it up and throwing it back at you.

Step forward Kiran Leonard. His gig at The Albert last night was fabulous. He simultaneously channels Radiohead, Sonic Youth, krautrock and Beefheart.

Lets Eat Grandma in support were very good as well and equally all over the place in terms of their influences.

One of my favourite Brighton acts for free at Hope and Ruin tonight - Sweet Williams

I bloody love this live version of 'So Right.' https://sweetwilliams.bandcamp.com/track/so-right-live

Ben Caplan at the Green Door Store was awesome. Properly Folky

 

[wallyback]

I'm off to see Ezra Furman in February at the Concorde 2.

Anyone seen him before?

I imagine he is a good performer.

Kiran Leonard and Let's Eat Grandma was a little bit special last night.

I imagine he is a good performer.

He's great, I think I saw him 5 maybe 6 times in 2014 and it never got boring. I'm sure he'll make the transition to bigger stages with ease.

From the Hope's Twitter:


Same old faces ....

 

[DavePage]

Muse on Saturday,
The Who on march 1st (Roger Daltrey and my birthday, if only he knew) After Bowie it’s a scary 6 weeks.
England’s Ben Portsmouth as Elvis….would actually recommend him if he’s playing locally (or not for that matter)

Not seen him before but also going for the first time. Think from what I have heard it should be pretty good.

Look at me having fun!

It was a really good show. I nipped to Green Door Sore after to catch the end of Porridge Radio who I'm very fond of, she's a bit Courtney Barnett, she does angry/ depressed in a really charming way.

Did you buy the 12"? It being January and me being skint, I couldn't really justify a tenner but I'd imagine it's a lovely artefact.

A tenner? Bah I pre-ordered a month ago with Resident £12 or something. What I should have picked up was one of his CDr's he usually sells but I had to run for a train.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Just got some tickets for PJ Harvey.

(thanks) To be honest apart from Slum of Legs I've no idea who any of these are! And the 20th clashes with GirlBand.

And Blurt. Bit of a bugger for clashes that day. In TST I trust though.

Thanks. And thanks too for your list for 2015. I'm at least planning on buying JLin as a result, but will have a look back at it prior to my next visit to Resident.
RE TST, I've been to some of their stuff before, and am interested. Have you got a (non-facebook) link? While we're on TST, I see that it was them that brought Part Chimp down these parts -- they made a glorious noise.

Part Chimp reformed the last time he did this a couple of years ago, AFAIK, Sex Swing involves some ex Part Chimp types.

Frustratingly, I can't see the line up announced so far anywhere other than Facebook so I've copied and pasted it for you.

Just got a ticket for Lindi Ortega at Komedia in Feb and will be popping to The Albert to see Matthew the Oxx on wednesday. A low key start to the year for me.

 

[Mr Banana]

Anyone on here having the big night if you're a hiphop nerd, two weeks on Friday, when Dr Syntax and Pete Cannon are playing Sticky Mike's, followed by a High Focus night (Dirty Dike, Lee Scott, Verb T tickling my near-plundered boat) at C2?

Speaking of such nonsense, Chali 2na was pretty magnificent tonight.

Agreed, Chali 2na was superb. and seems like a thoroughly decent bloke to boot.
