\\\\\\ NEXT WEDNESDAY /////
UPSET THE RHYTHM’S 10th BIRTHDAY PARTY
Featuring…
FICTIONAL BOYS
MICKEY GLOSS
THE WHARVES
Wednesday 18 December
Courtyard Theatre, Bowling Green Walk, 40 Pitfield Street, Shoreditch, N1 6EU
8pm | £6.00 | TICKETS
FICTIONAL BOYS is John Webster Johns
AKA Jack Name, a songwriter that Tim Presley recently described as a
'stubborn genius'. Currently a touring guitarist for Presley's band
White Fence, Johns spends much of his time releasing music under various
monikers (Fictional Boys and Muzz) and working behind-the-scenes as a
studio wizard /collaborator for the likes of Ariel Pink and Cass
McCombs. Next year, the Los Angeles native will release his debut album
under his latest project, Jack Name. Titled 'Light Show', it’s due out
January 21st via Drag City / Ty Segall's imprint God? Records. In
anticipation, Johns has shared his lead single 'Pure Terror' with the
interweb. It's a whirring psych-pop jam that couples his laid-back,
cloaked vocals with rambunctious guitars, it nicely balances the low-key
and lo-fi with straight-up wild, technicolor energy. He's singing about
terror, and as the song comes to its conclusion, his voice is enveloped
by these high, astral, childlike voices.
MICKEY GLOSS
is a psychedelic/punk party experiment that left the east coast of
Australia for London amidst the chaos and disorder of the riots in
summer 2011. Their compelling new album, 'Astral Projections For The
Kinetically Deranged', was released on November 18th through H Badger
Records. Signposting their anarchy and energy is lead single 'Are You
Happy?', where wry social commentary meets garage freakout in a
distillation of antipodean sun and London melancholia.
THE WHARVES
feature Marion Andrau on drums, Gemma Fleet on bass and Dearbhla
Minogue on guitar. The latter pair duet in counter-harmony and joyful
unison across their songs, a swirling, heavy, melodious mix of
charged-up electric folk and splashes of girl-group wonder. Think
Fairport Convention mixed with a primed Sleater Kinney vocal interplay.
Check out their new split LP with The Rosy Crucifixion on Soft Power
now!
Thanks for reading, increasingly festive times!
