SKYMOUTH SAYS: “Hello everybody. I’ve had time to sort out some gigs at The Peer Hat because I’ve not got a body! Hahahaha. It’s GURLGES again and another promoter (though I am NOT a promoter hahahaha I have no body!) has written this rather fantastic capsule sum up of them. It’s flesh time!”
“Psycheprogpop cosmonauts from the Bradford Oblast re-enter orbit in Cambridge. Totally far-out pop tunes driven by cosmic organ, jazzy drums and swell harmonies, all with nod and a wry smile. Fronted by the current “fourth Saint Etienne”, GURGLES are a fine addition to the tradition of erudite, emotive, and very English songsmithery peddled by XTC, the Kinks, Robert Wyatt, and (honoury limeys) Sparks.

A four piece from Yorkshire, VELVET TUXEDO are a guitar driven band and with an energy that only an exposed electrical socket could hit you with. That is if you would be so daring as to touch it…

Surfing the ragged waves of US 60’s Garage and resurrecting the energy from the British Freakbeat scene circa 65/66, Velvet Tuxedo offer sounds that risk turning you away from the standard pop charts to delve deep into a record store’s “rare finds” box in search of something best played in cloud of purple haze.

SKYMOUTH SAYS: “If I could feel anything, I could tell you that these boys feel grrrreat! I do have the power of taste. It is incomparable!”

SHITSHOW are a punk collective formed around relentless, melodic chaos. Worth tracking as they gain in power and beauty.

SKYMOUTH SAYS: “These people are bubbling with something! They each have a digestive system. Unlike SKYMOUTH!”
