The Courteeners @ Q The Music Club Live at Hard Rock Cafe
Whether The Courteeners will find their place amongst the greats that adorn the walls is yet to be seen.
Errors, So So Modern and Race Horses @ The Scala, London 04/03/2010
Errors unleashed their blend of new wave acid house on a mesmerised following at London’s modest sized Scala, but not until after an intriguing support line-up.
Hot Chip @ Birmingham Academy, 20/02/2010
The added dimensions afforded by live instrumentation were the real highlight of an amazing set.
Erland & the Carnival @ The Glee Club, Birmingham 19/02/2010
With their collection of wonderfully crafted and re-worked tracks, band members from the best musical stock and a charismatic front man, Erland & the Carnival have every box ticked
The Violet May – The Stockroom, Sheffield 13/02/2010
The Violet May are noisy and melodic with just the right amount of rough around the edges.
Delphic @ The Tabernacle, London 26/01/2010
Delphic are still clearly a work in progress and given a few more high profile performances they should feel comfortable with their new found status and deliver the performances their album promises.
Dead Confederate – Hoxton Bar and Grill, London 01/12/2009
Their deep southern droll might sound out of step with the current scene, but their live show is an unrelenting performance which will leave you speechless.
Mumford & Sons – Winter Fair, Trafalgar Square 02/12/2009
With their album now propping up most best of ‘09 lists and two headline shows at Shepherds Bush Empire nearly sold out this could be the last time we’re lucky enough to see Mumford & Sons such an intimate setting.
The Leisure Society, Erland and the Carnival @ Glee Club, Birmingham 23/11/2009
Whilst ‘The Sleeper’ is one of my favourite albums of 2009, The Leisure Society is showcased at their best live – breathing extra vigour into beautifully crafted songs and allowing their playful side to show through
The Big Pink @ The Electric Ballroom, Camden 15/10/2009
When The Big Pink make it to the stage , there is hardly room to manoeuvre your pint to your lips and the level of expectation couldn’t be any higher
