The Broken Family Band

The Broken Family Band at Cambridge Arts Picture House, Tue 14 Oct

Review by Anthony Gibbons

"Pre-gig, frontman Steve Adams veers from politeness personified to a cackling, punk calling his "alcoholic Buddhist" mate a c*, then sneering at this correspondent for daring to go to a Starsailor gig. Don’t get me wrong, he’s a likeable bloke but he’s a bit, well, unhinged..."»

The Broken Family Band

The Broken Family Band hail from Cambridge and include ex-members of Hofman and Gwei-lo. Their extended family includes people from The Folk Orchestra, The Be Good Tanyas live band, Magoo and others.

Recently signed to Snowstorm they play country-flavoured rock 'n roll and sound not unlike Pavement being buttfucked by the Anthology Of American Folk Music.»
