Artist: L.D. Moses / The Murder Capital
Venue: Brudenell Social Club, Leeds
Date: 30.9.18
Two brilliant bands topping the bill for this gig, but The Murder Capital ‘killed it’. Definitely the ones to watch . . .

Artist: The Smyths
Support: John Hunt
Venue: Brudenell Social Club, Leeds
Date: 29.9.18
Fake is a four letter word: I don’t do tribute bands, unless they have an incredibly good reputation and there’s absolutely no hope of ever seeing the real thing. In this case I’d heard glowing reviews from friends who, like myself, grew up loving The Smiths and their melancholic melodies.

A great night of authentic sounding indie nostalgia as The Smyths worked their way though their namesakes’ back catalogue. The crowd embraced the band, reaching out with messiah like adulation to touch the hand of mock-Morrissey. Although the bass player with front-man syndrome should settle into the back-seat role of Andy Rourke or form his own Peter Hook tribute band.

Artist: The Bluetones
Support: Jordan Allen
Venue: Brudenell Social Club, Leeds

Sometimes it’s reassuring for a band to announce that they won’t be playing any new material, as they haven’t written any. The resulting set was a selection of flawless former singles and album tracks.

At one point, Mark Morris jokingly stated “This is the part of the show where we shut-up, so you can all have a chat and a catch-up.” – sarcastically but superbly highlighting the fact that everyone rudely talks throughout gigs these days. Followed by commenting “No, seriously, don’t mind us!” (Well said).

Artist: Suede
Venue: Brudenell Social Club, Leeds
Date: 22.9.18
The second of two exclusive performances to celebrate the launch of Suede’s latest album; The Blue Hour. The early show featured a selection of new songs, whereas this late show saw the band ‘shaking their bits to the hits’ as they performed their third album, Coming Up, in its entirety.
The set appropriately ended with Bret Anderson walking amongst the crowd for a rendition of Saturday Night.

Artist: ShadowParty
Venue: Brudenell Social Club, Leeds
Date: 10.9.18
ShadowParty’s USP is that each member of the group is a latter-day addition to an existing well-known band, including New Order and Devo.

Artist: Daft Punk Orchesta
Venue: The Wardrobe, Leeds
Date: 7.9.18
Interpretation rather than tribute, as this talented band of young musicians recreated the sounds of Daft Punk – proving to be ‘Human After All’.
