Keiron Phelan and Peace Signs return to The Betsey Trotwood in full 6 piece glory with their '70s tinged baroque chamber pop. Black sheep philosophers, time travelling step-daughters, sixth form poetry, '70s pornography, swiss army knives, imaginary friends, new best friends, very dead friends and more. Shades of Kevin Ayers and Scott Walker, a whisper of John Cale, a suggestion of Marc and a soupcon of Harley. With that Neil Hannon fella lurking round the corner.
Spoken word crypto-fantasy meets smooth glamour. London based Bobby Zodiac and the Clairvoyants sing about being abducted by aliens, 1980s video nasties, and Jean-Paul Sartre. It's all done with relentless optimism and a retro-futuristic energy. “Somewhere between Mozart Estate, Half Man Half Biscuit and Sparks, these are wry spoke-sung tracks with an unashamed focus on entertainment” CLASH
Drew Morrison and the Darkwood’s central vision of a music illuminated by the guiding star genres of Country, Pop & Rock ‘N' Roll all tinged with wide open spaced Bob Nolanesque 'golden chording' has remained focussed and realised itself into a unique sound. Expect to hear flashes of late 1960s Velvets, Jimmy Webb-esque wordplay and electrical guitar playing that has one foot in the 1950s and the other very much in the now.
