Gig at Nags Head, High Wycombe

Through a series of random events, Kelly and I went to a small gig containing 3 bands last night. One of the bands, The AnyDays, I had already met and interviewed before so it was on that basis we went. The other two acts, FutureTown, The Echoes and the venue itself were completely new to us.
[cut to the chase] – Although the attendance was low, the 3 bands rocked it out. By the time The AnyDays had completed their first song, our ears were ringing! I’m just downloading the files …

Slashed Seat Affair at the Albany, London

It was certainly a packed out venue for the launch of SSA’s EP; I could barely make my way to the front of the stage!
I did manage to though, and was blown away by the energetic, full bodied performance by the stunning Ellie on lead vocals, and the perfect combination of Darren, Noel and Rob who accompany her to make up this edgy JUST BEEN SIGNED band that we know by the name of Slashed Seat Affair!
Just a teaser for now, but come back to see more photos soon….

Frowser at Bellfest!

Frowser were the last to come on at Bellfest. Adrienne (the even organizer) warned the crowd these are going to be the loudest band of the event. She wasn’t wrong! I sat with a friend Neil who came from Aylesbury to see them. Apparently they have been around for a while. He too warned me they would be electric; as I watched them setup they seemed unassuming. Then they started to pile on their amps. There must have been 5-6 large amps on a stage this is a little bigger …

Black Circles at Bellfest, Waddesdon

Loud, outrageous and something your parents wouldn’t like. That’s how I describe Black Circles. A 3 piece band that is reminiscent of the heavy metal bands in the early 90s. For me they were the star of the evening. Click on their MySpace page to hear their stuff. http://www.myspace.com/blackcirclesband

BellFest in Waddesdon

Today’s event can only be described as a big gig in a small venue. The Bell pub in Waddesdon was the setting. It is a modest sized pub with a tiny garden where BellFest was held.

I will be pushing photos all this coming week, but I just wanted to say a big thank you to Adrienne from RunWay Studios for putting on a great list of bands for such a tiny event. The quality was amazing, as was the noise levels.
Watch this space for photos of Strange Folk, Bommerillo, Chrystina …
