Well that’s it from us for this week. If you haven’t got your tickets yet for our 25 year knees up featuring Chuck Prophet, Steve Wynn and a whole load more americana, you can pick them up from this link – we’d love to see you. In the meantime we leave you dear reader with a song which I only discovered this morning reading Alexis Petridis’ review of the new self-titled album by Cameron Picton’s new project My New Band Believe, out on Rough Trade today – but it referenced a track from the final album by British art-rockers Black Midi (of which Picton was the bassist), Still, which he described as “a sweetly lambent acoustic track, with a little country and a dab of bucolic Canterbury prog in its DNA, sung not by frontman Geordie Greep in one of his apparently fathomless array of funny voices, but by bassist Cameron Picton, a man possessed of an understated, guileless vocal style.” And a quite avant-garde meandering lovely thing it is too. Listen for yourself.
Take care, don’t forget Palestine and Lebanon too at the moment as Israel tries its best to keep up with being the most hated country in the world – keep fighting those fascists. See you next week.
