NAZCA PLAIN
Nazca Plain was formed by Charlie Barnard, Nick Mellon, David Gillespie
and
Robert Shields to experiment with music in colour. Sensuous and intense
sounds drift through hypnotic instrumentals that lead into whimsical
songs
about sex with trees and Halloween.
Charging headlong down the road mapped out by The Soft Machine, Acid
Mothers
Temple and Pink Floyd; Nazca Plain are one of the leading lights of
British
psychedelia.
>From the dark heart of NN1
SPITTLE RATTLE
Michael Holloway's long-running NN1 Delta Blues project grows ever
stronger. Bone dry wit chronicling black despair, exquisite guitar music
wedded to visceral disgust, the Spittle Rattle experience inspires
recollections of Leonard Cohen, The Cure, Big Star and Scott Walker
while retaining its own unique style.
A must for those who find more to laugh about in Sam Beckett than Green
Wing.
And, of course, your Superstar DJ for this month
Curtis E. Johnson
He's a local legend. He's an asset to the community and he has the
paperwork to prove it.
The leader of Barbed Choir, Strange Tales and Stranger Tractors, the
evil mastermind behind the Short Wave Band, and a renowned solo artist
in his own right, Curtis started as a professional DJ in Edinburgh back
when punk rock ruled the Earth. Since then he has built up an
astonishing collection of sonic essentials and eccentricities, so stand
back and
prepare to be amazed ((c) T. Walpole ) as he unleashes the beats. Didja
get any on ya?
This all kicks off at about 9:00pm on Friday night.
As usual, admission is free, the beer is cheap, the vibrations friendly,
the lights pretty and the speeches short.
We hope to see you there with all your pals.
