Given that it's largely a post-rock type affair tonight, it's an odd billing for Lou Whatling, but her gritty and heartfelt folk would make a classy start to any evening. Her voice is striking, soulful and androgynously deep, whilst intricate melodies seem to flow effortlessly from her deftly fingered acoustic guitar. Already known and loved around the local folk scene, on this evidence she's certainly got the talent and the beautifully flowing songwriting to follow the likes of Stephen Fretwell on to bigger things. It's a bit of a shame she's been and gone whilst the place is still pretty empty.



Manchester Music review, March 2008, Cath Aubergine. .

Up next, Lou Whatling who is firmly sitting on the folk side of tonight's metaphorical fence and who, seemingly out of nowhere, produces a voice so big some money could have been saved on the speaker-system. Channeling music of a bygone era, she squeezes out a set filled with grit and soul, whilst the dual vocals (sung with her guitarist) conjure images of June Carter and Johnny Cash while Lou's husky tones perfectly complement her own playing, Overall a good, solid show and well worth a look, although sadly seemed wasted on this crowd. (i) Sandman Magazine review March 2009. .

Sugar House Music





Feb 18 2009 9:45 PM

Hi guys just dropping you a msg to let you know what we do. Sugar House Music is primarily a production label working on band demos through to record label releases. We are also currently signing acts to production/management/artist referral deals to help further bands we feel have potential, by working on every aspect of the band, from songwriting, production, recording and passing the act onto our list of industry contacts.

As an offshoot of this, we also have a record label to release bands we like that we haven't produced a recording for.

For a full list of services check our main page.

Thanks

Another co-promo with the brains and muscle that brought Beats, Roots & Leaves back in May - this time tho we de-camp indoors to make the most of the Halloween theme inside a church, with face painters, ghost hunters, a bar provided by Jam Street and a fabulous line-up of musical tricker treats:

Na Zdrove
Na Zdrove is Sheffield's finest Balkan Beats, Gypsy Brass, Russian Ska, Gypsy Dub, Klezmer and Gypsy Punk night. blimey. We’ll ave some of that. We’ll be welcoming their house band and resident DJs - yes indeedy!
