Artist: Jane Weaver
Support: Mia La Metta
Venue: City Varieties Music Hall, Leeds
Date: 30.10.18
One of the most pleasantly chilled-out and relaxing gigs I’ve ever been to. Complemented by the marvelous charm and character of the venue.
Artist: Twisted Wheel
Support: Sounds Like a Storm / Evil Regent
Venue: The Wardrobe, Leeds
Date: 26.10.18
Never ones for half measures, Twisted Wheel rattled The Wardrobe, as frontman Jonny Brown swigged from a bottle of Jack Daniel’s and consequently forgot the lyrics to some of their best known songs. Resoundingly raucous.
Artists: International Teachers of Pop
Support: Viagra Boys / VIDE0
Venue: Brudenell Social Club, Leeds
Date: 23.10.18
Programmed beats, post punk and pop.
Artists: The Tuts / Dead Naked Hippies
Venue: Her Fest; Brudenell Social Club, Leeds
Date: 20.10.19
I only saw a couple of the bands at this event, but Dead Naked Hippies stole the show with a their edgy post-punk style and charismatic front-woman (Lucy Jowett).
The gig also promoted the release of the ‘Young Male Rage’ single, by one of the most absorbing bands currently emerging from the Leeds music scene.
Artist: Boy Azooga
Support: The Howl & The Hum
Venue, Brudenell Social Club, Leeds
Date: 14.10.18
An impressive blend of styles and sets with both bands clearly destined for success. Such gigs prove why it’s always worth arriving in time to see the support band; catching up-and-coming acts who will soon return as headliners.
