caro snatch live Peterloo Massacre live Diana Simpson from Splice Girls live DJ Paizan
plus films by Kate Jessop and Kerry Baldry
This event is a double release party for two of Manchester's possibly rarest electronic outfits caro snatch and Peterloo Massacre on Leeds based emerging label Anorakism
Peterloo Massacre - Formed in late 2006, Peterloo Massacre (Paul Green, Colin Fry, Howard Jones and Kin) blend 80's electronica with 90's indie, trip-hop and contemporary folk. In result they are guided by the highly unique vocal lines of Kin through surreal synth-based soundscapes. They have been compared to Massive Attack, Thom Yorke and Portishead and have shrugged off the indie electro-pop zeitgeist in favour of something more cerebral and are all the more seducitve in consequence. Their self-titled e.p showcases the band's deft ability to span multiple genres and make it look effortless. The e.p includes a remix by the acclaimed beatmaker and arranger Robert Lippok. If new sounds are craved then Peterloo Massacre are making them loudly.
REAL LIVE TIGERS + DUSTIN AND THE FURNITURE + OTHERS!!!
...they have travelled many a mile across the ocean to be here.
An extremely short notice but promising to be a super show this Thursday night 17th April at The Old Moseley Arms, Tindal Street, Balsall Heath/Moseley.
Please check out the bands' Myspaces to have a wee listen....
