As always when we have a special event we have the phenomenally talented Threeforagirl supporting us, with a new EP due for release very soon you can hear a taster of their delights HERE.

If you are unfamiliar with them you can see them on camera in part of our documentary below at around 4 mins in.

The Facebook event is here,please join and show your support.
Ticket link is in the description under our section or directly from here.

We can’t wait and I hope you can’t too.

Love Love Love as always,

Lost and Thrown Away

Hello all!

We have three, yes three new videos for you this week! Ridiculous we know, we have been working hard and working alongside some fantastically talented people to bring you stunning audio visual content. (sounds like an advert doesn’t it?)

1.

A cover of Radiohead’s No Surprises, requested by an old friend. Performed by Raph, Alex, Jonny of Audiogold, (sadly no marco) and Miriam Keogh on harp.

2.

Audiogold – Lost And Thrown Away from the wonderfully creative team - Another Lazy Sunday. They braved the cold with us and filmed this LIVE NEW SONG for the world to see. Hope you enjoy and please, if you do…SHARE!

3. ZERO FILMS have been slaving away working on our top secret new music video to be unveiled at our MUSIC VIDEO LAUNCH PARTY  <—- click on this one, it’s crucial. Come and see us perform an extended set, hear the amazing I Am Harlequin supporting us, and most importantly…see the new music video. It’s so “top secret” that we haven’t even seen it yet!

 

lots of love and we will see you on Friday!!

NEW MUSIC VIDEO

We’ve been working far too little on our next music video. The fantastic Andrew McDermott and Simon James Fisher from ZERO have been toiling away at night and the early hours of the morning to bring you, the viewer something beautiful, haunting, and abstract to look at when you listen to our song – T Lights.

The rumours are true, we have been given the privilege of taking over the Proud Galleries for one awesome Friday night. 10TH FEBRUARY. The always brilliant I Am Harlequin will be supporting us, followed by the first screening of our new music video, then we will take to the stage to play an extended set for you all. This will then be followed by the groovy as hell Dixon Brothers (DJ’s).

If this sounds like a night you want to be at then get yourself down to proud, next Friday at 8pm and join in the epicness. If this doesn’t sound like your thing, then come anyway and we’ll convince you otherwise.

£8 before 9pm. £10 after 9pm.

CAN YOU SEE THE LIGHTHOUSE?

Review – Enterprise Camden

On arriving at The Enterprise there is little to set it apart from the multitude of other bars and pubs around Camden market. Once inside little changes, the DJ was good and the drinks not too expensive considering the area, a nice place to have a drink on a Saturday night but nothing amazing. There is also the problem of finding the room where gigs are held which is up a tiny little staircase hidden away in a corner.

The room itself is the epitome of the small Camden gig venue, essentially the function room of a pub that has a stage in the corner and covered over windows. These rooms are where you can find some of the best up and coming bands in London but the bohemian style generally comes at a price to sound quality, The Enterprise is no exception. Whilst not a major problem with the fast paced singalong Country Folk of Gentlemen Duke the highly developed and sophisticated sound of Audiogold did suffer.

Audiogold were the headliners for the night but such was the disorganisation at the venue that by the time they had come on many of the crowd had left and I even had to duck out before they had finished the last song so I could actually get home!

Those that did leave before the band had started missed out majorly, the skill level and writing prowess on display is something you virtually never see in these small venues. Though the set got off to a bit of a slow start for my liking it soon kicked up a few gears and those that had remained stayed rooted to the spot. Some sound problems caused minor delays and affected a few songs but far from ruined the performance. You don’t often get guys like this at small venues such as The Enterprise.

Though very well written and performed the lyrics were for me blown out of the water by the music itself. With a great mixture of lighter slower songs that would sound right at home on the radio through to heavier layered tracks and even a very good cover of Another Brick in the Wall by Pink Floyd – Audiogold offer something for anyone who likes guitar based bands. The initial slower style reminded me of Elbow and the big sound is reminiscent of a small scale Arcade Fire though there are undoubtedly some folk influences in some of the songs.

Probably best described as Folk/Alt rock they are one of the best small bands you will get the chance to see with Jonny Wanders being probably the best guitarist I have seen since I started reviewing for the site a couple of years ago. And they even refunded my entrance money after the venue messed up!

I’d recommend Gentlemen Duke to anyone who likes a bit of folksy rock or even just a fun gig; if they are near me again I’d definitely head down. They should do well as long as they don’t get lost in the swarm of Mumford wannabe’s who seem to be appearing at the moment. Audiogold are something a little different, I tend to go back and see the bands I review again anyway but this time I will definitely do it, very enjoyable this time around and apparently the sound at The Enterprise was rubbish so I can’t wait to hear them when it’s good!

- Audiogold have been firm favourites with the readers of the indie bands blog for some time, taking the number one spot on the New Year Ninety Chart.

T-Lights Music Video

Ok, so after a ridiculously windy day of filming with the fantastic Another Lazy Sunday (video coming in 12 days! stay tuned!) we dragged our gear down to The Factory Dance studios, and gym in north london to film through the night with Andy and Simon from Zero Films.

BREAKING NEWS! If you’re excited about the new music video, you’re probably not as excited as we are to announce that we shall be putting on a video launch night at the Proud Galleries, Friday 10th February!! Yes, we shall be taking over Proud for one fantastic friday night, supported by the awesome I Am Harlequin (florence and the machine meets imogen heap) and DJ sets from the fantastic Dixon Brothers (and we are boring bastards, but these guys make some seriously incredible mixes, think 90′s hip hop, jackson, disco, and usually some dizzee rascal) We shall be premiering the new music video and then playing an extended set for you all. This shall be followed by partying and more partying.

Back to reality, I had recently downloaded the Hipstomatic disposable camera app, and decided to use a 24 shot camera for each member of the band during filming of T-Lights, here are the results!
