LIVE: DENIS JONES/NANCY ELIZABETH/HOMELIFE – 09/09/2010

– BAND ON THE WALL, MANCHESTER – Expectations are high tonight; three of the northwest’s finest contemporary, yet traditional music acts are on the same lineup. Homelife are playing as I walk in. Paddy Steer is tucked in the corner, in amongst a large selection of percussion and electrical equipment. Anton Burns sings with his […]
– THE DEAF INSTITUTE, MANCHESTER – In case you don’t know Neon Indian are a hotly tipped band from Texas, producing ‘chill wave’. Chill Wave is, from my experience of it, what we used to call ‘ambient electronic music’ and actually sounds a little like the score to films like ‘Ladyhawke’ or ‘Labyrinth 2’ from […]

LIVE: NEON INDIAN – 04/09/2010

LIVE: THE LIKE – 03/09/2010

– THE RUBY LOUNGE, MANCHESTER – What a difference five years makes. Rewind to 2005 and The Like were a very different outfit. Looking like they had wafted in from the set of The Virgin Suicides, the Cali-London three-piece swooned their way through ‘Are You Thinking What I’m Thinking?’, a veritable pick n’ mix of […]
– THE DEAF INSTITUTE, MANCHESTER – Idiot Glee is on stage as I enter The Deaf Institute’s top floor live room. James Friley from Kentucky sits alone in his cardigan behind a school type desk that supports a keyboard and other electronic gadgets. His sound is reminiscent of the Animal Collective, his voice has been […]

LIVE: WOMEN/ZOLA JESUS/IDIOT GLEE – 02/09/2010

LIVE: HER NAME IS CALLA – 30/08/2010

– NIGHT & DAY CAFE, MANCHESTER – It’s a lazy bank holiday Monday and it seems like Manchester’s music fans are recovering from the excesses of the weekend, as there is only a small crowd to witness Her Name Is Calla promote their second album, The Quiet Lamb. Her Name Is Calla are obviously disappointed […]
– BAND ON THE WALL, MANCHESTER – This is the first live music venue I’ve been in that sports a carpeted floor since I last went to a karaoke night. It feels strange, but warm and comforting nonetheless and we position ourselves at the top balcony for a birds eye view of the stage. First […]

LIVE: GIDEON CONN – 26/08/2010

LIVE: THE DOMINO STATE – 11/08/2010

– THE NIGHT & DAY CAFE, MANCHESTER – On an evening when the England football team faces Hungary in the first match since the national side’s woeful showing at World Cup 2010, it is unsurprising that the crowd at Night & Day Café is larger than it might have been on any other Wednesday. Yes, […]
– MOHO LIVE, MANCHESTER – There’s a reet posh fancy tour bus outside Moho tonight because double headliners Nashville Pussy and Voivod are American and they can afford it. It begs only one question… why are all roadies fat guys in shorts??? There is no barrier in front of the stage tonight and the place […]

LIVE: NASHVILLE PUSSY/VOIVOD – 10/08/2010

LIVE: THE DWARVES – 09/08/2010

– MOHO LIVE, MANCHESTER – It’s my first time down at Moho, and I’m pleased to see that in the apparent current trend, there is another thwacking great pole right in the view of the stage. Good times. But there’s more… there are stairs. That don’t go anywhere but up… hmmm. Anyway, first up on […]
– LOWTHER DEER PARK, PENRITH – The last day blues that the weekend is almost is over are now upon me, but at the same time thoughts of home comforts are also crossing my mind. As I meander past the main stage Erland and the Carnival are making sure that any overnight cobwebs are blown […]

LIVE: KENDAL CALLING 2010 – DAY 3
