DiScover Club: this weekend, Saturday May 5!
Hooray - or is that 'hurray'? Either way: it's the weekend! And this weekend's super special, and not just because the mighty Southampton could secure a place in the play-offs. Oh no... we've a DiScover Club to dance at.
Playing live, tomorrow (May 5), we have:
Meet Me In St Louis - Surrey/London-based punk-rockers with odd timings and sexy moves. The five-piece recently wrapped up the recording of their debut album alongside acclaimed producer Alex Newport - listen out for songs from the forthcoming Variations On Swing long-player.
MySpace
Chow Chow (pictured) - London-based pop-rocking trio that have us dancing about the office like loons. We played their 'Dear Francis' single on the last DiScover podcast - download it here - alongside an exclusive Meet Me In St Louis song. Think Pixies meeting Franz Ferdinand in a school music room full of electric keyboards. Yeah.
MySpace
Favours For Sailors - London three-piece with a fine collection of songs that echo the scruffy college rock of Pavement yet jerk and twitch like the best post-punk around. Expect humour and good times, as well as swinging hips and pouting lips.
