   About BD1 LiVE

The music scene in Bradford, West Yorkshire is rapidly growing - at the forefront are mono & Granadaland, two enthusiastic fresh new music companies based in Bradford who have teamed up with St George’s Hall with the aim of staging a regular music gig one night per month at the venue.

For those unaware St George's Hall is a prestigious theatre in the heart of the city and has hosted many amazing bands in the past - we're looking to bring that back.

Granadaland is Bradford's hottest gig and club night. From the start we have been bringing ace bands to Bradford as well as spinnin' the hottest records. Granadaland takes place at the Love Apple Cafe on the 2nd Friday of each month.

mono is Bradford's independent music fanzine. Now running bimonthly with a readership of 1000+ it's remit is to support and promote new music in the city and beyond.

Some artists who have graced the stage so far:
Duels, Laura Groves, iLiKETRAiNS, Wild Beasts, British Sea Power, Art Brut, Young Knives, Forward Russia, This Et Al, The Hot Puppies, Sky Larkin, Falconetti, worriedaboutsatan, iwasacubscout, fourteencorners, Laboratory Noise, The Fineline, The Analog Bombs, Monty Casino, DND ... and more to come!

Friday 11th July: Wintermute + Fires
www. myspace. com/wintermuteband
Easily one of our best catches to date, Wintermute are currently one of the most exciting acts on the Leeds scene. Fresh from a nationwide tour supporting Oceansize and with debut Ep 'Fun With Wizard Stencils' due to be released early August, Wintermute are surely set to make it big in 2008. Support for the evening comes from promising new Hebden electro-rock outfit Fires.

"A curious combo of At The Drive-In and Interpol, splashed with a bit of Foals-ian mathletics, tight and adventurous, Wintermute are cool." NME

"...punchy and pop-infected, akin to The Futureheads poising notes at sharper angles. Ditch the doubts at the door: expect to be impressed.

Koen Holtkamp is no stranger to producing beautiful music. Expect layers of warm organic noise and found sound combine to make pieces that are both gorgeously minimalistic and endlessly deep. He's making the trip over from New York to celebrate the launch of his new album on Type records, and you'd be a fool to miss him!

Gorgeously organic music that washes over you and through you - the best of all ambient music understands the importance of holding back, of understatement, of beauty - Pausal achieve this, and more. Stunning stuff for a night of pure sonic bliss.

Forest of Sound's favourite one man laptop genius, randomNumber, comes back to regale us with his excellent and deeply inventive brand of electronica. There's a reason that he's so energetic in his performance - his music is brilliant. Simple. As.

A Forest of Sound presentation. It’ll be £5 on the door, and doors are at 8pm.

Easily one of the most important bands of our times (and we don't say that lightly), Stars of the Lid are the highpoint of the ambient genre. Their influence on the music that really matters over the last decade has been huge, and we're incredibly honoured to be hosting them again in Leeds. This gig will be very very different, and very very special. Stars of the Lid have excelled at designing subtle, minimalist epics which sound like they're being played on a single multifaceted organic instrument.
A wise man once described SOTL as "divine classical drones without the tedious intrusion of drums, or vocals.
"


The Declining Winter is the musical project of Richard Vincent Adams of Leeds UK, the co-founder of the continuing group Hood and a full time stricken office worker.
What does it sound like? Richard says "cassette tapes spilling out of the glovebox of a 1970's Datsun Sunny somewhere in the north of England, captured on Super 8 film".
He's not far off. Live he is joined by a few more people to bring the beautiful pastoral feel to life. Wonderful stuff.

A Forest of Sound presentation.
Tickets are £10 and are available from We Got Tickets and Jumbo Records.
It’ll be £12 on the doors, and doors are at 8pm.

The scorching hot and totally free Bradford and Manningham musical and sporting event "Community Sunday" is now upon us, and you'd be crazy to sit at home missing out on a whole host of music, sports and community info stalls. Taking place this Sunday between 9am and 5pm!!!, it's a not-for-profit festival with sports workshops, community stalls, live music, top DJs, and special celebrity guests. Forget the mud of Glastonbury, peeps! The entertainment happens in the comfort of one of Yorkshire's most cosy football grounds, and the highlight of the day includes a friendly footie fixture between the Manningham All Stars and Thackley AFC.


With musical acts arranged courtesy of BradFactor and Skewed Circus, soccer, workshops, an indoor cricket practice area courtesy of Yorkshire County Cricket, a climbing frame courtesy of the army, it's party time for all ages, whether you live in Manningham or Bradford, so, wherever you live, so if you like to have fun and chill out in the weekend sun, get down to the home of Bradford City AFC on Sunday the 18th of May, and let's recreate the lost spirit of Bradford Festival, making this an occasion to savour.


And remember, folks!!! It's not just an excuse to party. There will be stalls on-hand to provide careers, training and employment advice, so it's gonna kick ass!!!

A Fire Born In Dallas (Razmataz Lorry Excitement remix)

Available now on limited edition mini 3" CD or via digital download:

iTunes
Amazon MP3

Either follow the links above or search "Ever Since The Lake Caught Fire" on iTunes.

"Produced by ¡Forward, Russia!'s Tom Woodhead, debut single A Fire Born In Dallas (released on the Pay For The Piano imprint) finds post-hardcore and prog influences welded together to create a sound that is both vulnerable and self-assured. Admittedly, the usual influences of Fugazi and At The Drive-In are worn pretty obviously, but the band are far more than mere copyists.

Indeed, at their single launch they offered an intense and impassioned performance, with snare cracks and upstrokes reverberating around the venue.

Ever Since The Lake Caught Fire, it would seem, have more than enough firepower in their sonic arsenal to kick some of the music world's feted young pretenders into touch.

PANTHER - 7 HERTZ - TIGERS! @ PACKHORSE - THURS MAY 1st

Panther

Panther is some mutant form of Charlie. Having recently supported The Gossip, Panther’s music is hard match of damaged soul, falsetto disco and broken synth fueled freakouts which is as addictive as it is challenging. This solo affair of Charlie Salas-Humara isn’t easily ignored for his unpredictable and energetic performances tainted with throbbing bass, minimalistic hooks and jittery dance routines. Panther’s influences run deep and take as much from Pop and R&B as Free Jazz and Punk.
http://www. myspace. com/panthertouch

7Hertz

Fluid and engaging, 7 Hertz fluctuate and mutate live before your very ears. incorporating all or none of the following instruments - basson, violin, voice, double bass, french horn, glockenspiel, clarinet, mandolin, trumpet - they improvise glorious pieces with total, beautiful spontaneity.
http://www. myspace. com/the7hertzband

Tigers!

Tigers! - either the worlds most criminally underated band. TIGERS! we're kicking ass when PANTHER we're completing the american version of the KEY STAGE ONE exam! TIGERS! have played with almost every good band on earth including COUGHS, KIT, THE LOCUST, EATS TAPES, FELIX KUBIN, WOLVES...ETC! TIGERS! are not funky! Thats just claptrap talk to encourage people to get into PRINCE! TIGERS! will kick your head clean off regardless of whether you have one or not.

to paraphrase m.j. fox '....maybe you guys aren't ready for this yet.....but your kids are gonna love it.'
