  • Bio

    The Blueprints continue to evolve as great song-writers and masters of thrilling shows. Eschewing the grim careerist posturing of many of today's bands, they exude joy and humour, an experience that translates easily to audiences who become happy participants in the live arena. Crisp melodies weave amongst spacious, percussive guitar textures, drums flail and spin, and pianos punch the tunes home with hook-laden basslines. They set the pace and only let up for singer Stu's charmingly wayward banter between songs. Melody, harmony, rhythm and big tunes are all things you'll find at a typical 'Prints show........which are rarely typical......

    Wonderful showing last night, the only fault being the set not being long enough for all the songs I wanted to hear!!! City Skylines had a suit on and was dressed to tear-inducing perfection, Staring At The Sun tore the sky a new centrepiece and No Melancholy was pure stomp!
    Damn thee fools bring back Digital before I spit out my dummy, storm the stage and play my iPod headphones down the mic loud!
    Some people were talking about The Strand last night, and what with the original line up of Blueprints and Buccs being around it was a memory lane event, but onwards and upwards as you so spiral!
