Music this week

Posted on by

I’ve got lots of music goings on this week… The big things are:

Water Tower Bucket Boys @ Milo, Wed 18th

We’re putting on this amazing ol’ time band at Milo as part of Foxes and Convicts tomorrow night in Leeds – it’s free in, at Milo (opposite Blue Rinse next to the Corn Exchange) and going to be a really busy one, so get down early! The fun starts at 8!

March of Dimes @ Elbow Rooms & Nation of Shopkeepers

Tom’s off on holiday this month, so we’ve rearranged the songs into a good ol’ bit of footstompin’ fun. We’ll be playing them at Elbow Rooms on Friday night, then over in York on Saturday, then back to play Nation of Shopkeepers on Sunday night.

If you’re around, pop down. If only to see me sweat through trying to play 4am:division and Cracks in the Floor and a kick drum at the same time.

Secret Sirens

Secret SirensYet more good local new music for your eardrums – This week it’s Secret Sirens.

Secret Sirens are Narelle Frances and Andrew Siron. They both appear to have been knocking about in various different projects for a while, but this latest collaboration seems to have something a bit special about it.

Through the seemingly never-ending stream of guitar-guitar-guitar-boring-boring-boring acts that are always on the bubble, it’s nice to hear someone doing something a bit different… They’ve clearly spent some time building a nice atmospheric, layered sound.

New bands need to be told there’s no shame in sounding poppy!

Their new single, Black Heart, is out next month, so have a listen to a sample here:

Friday bonus: Here’s a clip from the remix of the single, also available next month:
