LET THEM EAT GAK ON 10th June 2008


This week quirky indie punky cabaret with:

KITE SEASON

Kite Season produce a semi-acoustic set of quirky indie, with frontman Kurt Cooder having gritty lyrical tales and observations of life that make you feel like you have a rabid dog with teeth sunk into your ankles hanging on for grim death. They are influenced by The Moderately Impressive Indoor Fireworks Display, Wheat Maida, Red Star Gestapo and Supra Lunar.

ORCHARD HILL

One of South East London's youngest and hottest new indie prospects. Orchard Hill are gathering a momentum that could propel them to the very top - come and see what all the fuss in about!

Apparently they sound like dylan meets libertines with a dash of lewisham?

THE QUIRKY

The Quirky was born out of desperate need to uplift the boringly bland music scene that seems to lack any sense of true creativity in most cases.
Started as an acoustic act, it has grown into this dynamic four piece, fronted by a squirrel-donkey-rabbit mongrel, a giraffe on guitar, mole on bass and penguin on drums.
Venues they have played at include: Bull and Gate, Fiddler’s Elbow, Hope and Anchor and many other. The Quirky has headlined shows in Roundhouse (Quirky Music Night, Nov 3rd 2007) and Slimelight (Goth Mayhem Live, March 22nd, 2008).
They sound like Nick Drake vs Jimi Hendrix vs Syd Barrett vs Led Zeppelin vs Jefferson Airplane vs Gorillaz vs Pink Floyd.

REMEMBER WHEN

In the bosom of gracious Britannia a pain rises...
Concerned children molesting dead mosquitoes... train stations and bus Stops, graced with only one desolate bus, a bus that never arrives.
The sound of solemn men linked to desperate whores, the cry of an Unsatisfied lover, reeling from argument...
The joy of a thousand birthdays frozen and shattered by the cold bite of Technology.
And the sound of a pathetic poet lingering in a sad state of self admiration, Asking himself, 'do I remember when... ?'

"Kicks off like fizzymetal and turns into wirey indeed Wirey quirk pop. But the overall impression is buzzsaw punk pop. Vital Razorlight/Strokes touches and plenty of early Clash in here for sure…" - Bugbear London

"It is a very honest and very tight piece of work... 50,000 points" -THE PROMOTER (popworld promotes)
