“This is a fantastic book. A mascara smeared recollection of some of the most cutting edge individuals, hacking away at the merciless coal face of pop, written with enthusiasm and sassy sharpness, women who are still dressed to kill. ” - John Robb (singer of the punk band Goldblade and author of Punk Rock: An Oral History)
The AudioPhonic Cabaret presents two evenings of slightly bizarre, mostly unrehearsed live music and performance with a vaguely electronic bent [18th December and 4th January]. What it says on the flyer really.
The evening will showcase some new music including performances from acts that hardly even existed before next week!
If you are interested in doing a set on either evening please get in touch to discuss your ideas - performances ranging from 10 seconds to 20 minutes long are welcomed!
Two amazing events for you this month! Don't forget the Ready Steady Glow Christmas party fancy dress spectacular this Saturday!
Then Thursday 18th December See's a very special gig at The Crypt. Fresh from supporting The Enemy and Pendulum, the amazing Your Friends Are Architects play live with support from To The Moon Alice. DON'T MISS OUT!
Warrior Squares’ last minute emergency improv unit take to the stage for yet another exciting audio abuse laden death match. Witness reality defying sonic stunts & mind boggling tag team electro-acoustic alchemy at this one of a kind, never to be repeated event. Possible added excitement from yet another local superstar mystery guest (TBC). Arrive early to avoid excitement. Leave early to avoid disappointment.
