Review by Daniel Ross

Immediately upon entering the Water Rats Theatre (I wandered in all cool 'til a security fellow told me I couldn't do that for all the tea in China, consequently making me look a little bit of a dick while my name was ticked off the guestlist) you can see Josh T. Pearson...»

Joe Gideon And The Shark

Gideon plucks six strings, dreams stories and sings. Kid sister Viva Shark plonks, stomps and honks. They made two albums as Bikini Atoll released on Bella Union.

Official blurb:

Ladies and gentlemen, we give you another scruffy, Bohemian troubadour in a long and sometimes glorious tradition. Maybe youve seen him busking on a street corner, and stopped for a moment, caught by a delicate web of soulful music spun for any passing ear. Think about Jeff Buckley, Ray LaMontagne, Nick Drake, Ben Harper, Damien Rice. Think of the grit and soul of Richard Ashcroft, the raw emotiveness of Neil Diamond. It's the singer and the song.

Jack Savoretti is something special. Just one man and his guitar. This is pure music from the source.

Josh T Pearson

Former frontman and genius behind Lift to Experience, now playing his own solo acoustic material.
