New band night @ Eric's Liverpool - Fri 18 Nov

New band night @ Eric's Liverpool

Friday November 18

The Fallows, All We Are, Super-Cannes and Get Back Colquitt

Eric's, Liverpool - £5 tickets on door 730pm

Ellesmere Port band The Fallows have been together for around 18 months, bringing together years of experience on the Liverpool scene and a variety of musical influences to their infectious sound. This summer saw them play a blinder at the Chester Rocks Festival on same bill as Iggy Pop &The Stooges and last month they had a sell out hometown show.

Their recent single release Lazy Eye, is an uplifting and energetic follow up and a contrast to the brooding and bluesy debut release The Caine. With a fierce and melodic rock'n roll edge, coupled with catchy riffs and brutally honest vocals, The Fallows explode on stage, building, drawing and electrifying the crowd with a soaring and powerfully delivered sound.

All We Are are the new Liverpool based Alt-Pop-Psychedelic-Folk Trio given the thumbs up by Tom Waits at the International Songwriting Competition 2011! UK/Liverpool band All We Are is a neatly matched trio of musicians Rich, Guro & Luis. Their three part vocal harmonies and kettle-whistling guitar float over flowery bass and hypnotic drums that rise from soft and haunting, to driving anthemic endings and electrifying live shows.

A kaleidoscopically spinning soundtrack to your reccurring daydream… All We Are have now written and filmed their second EP in a cabin in Norway to be released in late 2011-early 2012, and touring the UK and Europe with Stealing Sheep and Love Inks.

Get Back Colquitt are an Indie four piece from Liverpool, with more tunes than you can shake a glow stick at. With dangerously infectious hooks and beautifully addictive melodies that have the energy of Mona and a nod to Bombay Bicycle Club, the band received airplay on Radio 1 after only a few months of being together. With a triumphant support slot with Life In Film at MOJO earlier in the year, they supported The Twang in Ooctober and release a single this month, the rest of 2011 looks like being an extremely exciting year for GBC.

Super Cannes, a band in the old school mould, putting the quality and depth of their music before commercial success. Expert musicianship lies behind a beautiful dark and twisted sound, combining psychedelia, epic indie, and art rock. Influenced by everything from Radiohead and Pink Floyd to Aphex Twin and Joy Division their sound is a 'physical and shifting thing' (Liverpool Sound City) and draws you in immediately. These four charming musical troubadours are deserving of the commercial and critical success that is sure to come knocking.

Loch Lomond,Goodnight Lenin and The City Walls - 22 November @ The Static Gallery Liverpool

 

Harvest Sun Promotions presents..LOCH LOMOND

Support from Goodnight Lenin, The City Walls, All We Are

 7.30pm, 22 November @ The Static Gallery Liverpool -  £5adv from Seetickets & Probe Records


After a string of head-turning, critically acclaimed releases on Hush Records, Portland's Loch Lomond has brought their unique brand of raw symphonic chamber pop to Tender Loving Empire. Loch Lomond released their much anticipated second full length 'Little Me Will Start A Storm' earlier this year.

The album was mixed by Adam Selzer (who has recorded all of M Ward's records), Tucker Martine (Laura Veirs, The Decemberists), Kevin Robinson (of Viva Voce), and Jeff Stuart Saltzman. The stunning track "Elephants & Little Girls," the first single, is available to listen to right now!

In addition to employing notable visceral and expert melodic acrobatics, the co-ed sextet of Loch Lomond distinctly incorporates the use of vibraphone, piano, guitars, mellotron, clarinet, flute, drums, bass, and other sonic treatments to foil the even more distinct and arresting voice of lead singer/multi-instrumentalist Ritchie Young. He's able to switch from high-pitched fragility to alto thunder in the turn of a phrase, yet he knows the power of restraint intuitively, saving vocal tornadoes for emotional apexes buoyed by string swells and moving arrangements.

Birmingham band Goodnight Lenin Formed in the autumn of 2009, Their songs are reminiscent of the singer songwriters of the 1960s & 1970s, whilst still being relevant to the modern day listener. Inspired by Dylan, Young and Simon & Garfunkel, they constantly strive to deliver honest, experience based lyrics that flow along into their carefully crafted sound that seamlessly crosses genres.

The City Walls are a rock n roll folk duo that deserve attention from anyone who holds music dear. Taking their cue from musical heroes such as Neil Young, Bob Dylan, The Band and Ron Sexsmith, The City Walls have been drawing comparisons to the likes of modern day acoustic wielders such as Bon Iver, Mumford & Sons and The Tallest Man On Earth at their explosive yet intimate live shows. They weave a multi instrumental rock n roll folk rock sound of acoustic guitar, mandolin, banjo, violin and heavenly harmonies through tunes dripping with rock n roll passion and immediacy.

All We Are are the new Liverpool based Alt-Pop-Psychedelic-Folk Trio given the thumbs up by Tom Waits at the International Songwriting Competition 2011!  UK/Liverpool band All We Are is a neatly matched trio of musicians Rich, Guro & Luis. Their three part vocal harmonies and kettle-whistling guitar float over flowery bass and hypnotic drums that rise from soft and haunting, to driving anthemic endings and electrifying live shows.
