About me:
HOWDY DO?
Howdy Do? is an alt-folk and country club night that’s been running at The Borderline for just over a year now. During that time we’ve been lucky enough to have had some amazing bands and troubadours grace our stage, including Kitty, Daisy and Lewis, Eugene Mcguiness, Fanfarlo, The Veils, Alberta Cross, Noah and The Whale
and The New York Fund to mention a few.
Coming up in February we have a series of gigs featuring some of our favourite bands from the past year, and some that we've been in love with for a while...
TUES 19th FEB
LIAM FROST
+ THE WALLBIRDS + NAUGHTY JACK
Building a devoted fanbase in Manchester and wowing crowds nationwide supporting fellow troubadour Stephen Fretwell, Liam has also shared a stage with Nine Black Alps, Willy Mason, Badly Drawn Boy and Kinks Legend Ray
"Young, fun and riotously talented, Liam Frost and the Slowdown Family are a free-wheeling 21st century folk carnival".
-NME
with support from three piece chaotic country-folk rockers The Wallbirds, and Naughty Jack…
"Naughty Jack ... this years Seasick Steve"
-Blues Matters
WEDS 20th FEB
NEIL HALSTEAD - CANCELLED! Unfortunately Neil is no longer able to play this show due to personal circumstances (happy ones though)
PETER AND THE WOLF + MUMFORD & SONS + MORRISON STEAM FAYRE (they will be playing nevertheless - Thanks guys! xxx)
Former member of shoegaze noisesters Slowdive and currently to be found playing with Mojave 3, Time Out has called Neil Halstead "one of Britain's greatest songwriters"; NME said he wrote "the kind of honest, heartfelt love songs men are too scared or too cool to write these days".
With support from Peter and the Wolf (“Delicious harmonies and jazzy bass, this lot come over like The White Stripes enjoying cocktail hour” – NME) and Morrison Steam Fayre.
FRI 22nd FEB
THE CRIMEA
+ FRANK HAMILTON + MATHEW SAWYER
Formed from the remnants of The Crocketts, The Crimea have crafted songs that veer from child-like infectious singalongs, to apocalyptic meltdowns which crescendo with singer Davey McManus' piercing screams.
“Davey Mcmanus has always been a visionary frontman… at once eccentric, charming, poetic and imaginative.
- ROCKSOUND
“Decribed as ‘the Mike Skinner of folk’, Frank’s writing is every bit as engaging as the bands live show"
- Music Week
MATHEW SAWYER AND THE GHOSTS:
"Blue Birds Blood is a forgotten box of cobwebbed pop tinder, its songs waiting loyally for the noisy tumble of shrapnel through the rusted guts of old penny slot machines. Get it and treasure it"
-Drowned in Sound 9 / 10.
SAT 23rd FEB
KITTY DAISY & LEWIS
+ PEGGY SUE AND THE PIRATES + THE DIAMOND FAMILY ARCHIVE
..
Sibling sensations Kitty Daisy and Lewis return after their sell out show last year, bringing with them their classic rhythm and blues, rockabilly and rock n roll. Support comes from lo-fi duo Peggy and The Pirates, plus The Diamond Family Archive.
Tickets for all gigs are available from:
www.wegottickets.com / www.ticketweb.co.uk or The Jazz Cafe in Camden Town and from Stargreen Ticket Office.
