Asleep Beneath Volcanoes
RETRO BAR
Sat May 2nd

MI AMI are San Francisco signees to Touch and Go records who are label
mates with the one and only CRYSTAL ANTLERS who we had down at
Retro Bar for their triumphant finale to their first ever european tour last
month. But Mi Ami are a powerful force, building on the promise of Black
Eyes' spastic energy and renowned live performances, but steering it into
a more focused, volatile, and personal direction. Mi Ami feature key
members of BLACK EYES and THE RAPTURE so should not be missed. Mi
Ami's first single on Touch & Go / Quarterstick, Echononecho, has been
released as a 12" and digitally on January 27, 2009, and the follow-up
full length, Watersports is now avaialble.

GRAILS are one of our favorite bands of all time and we are proud to be
promoting this special event. This is perfect if you haven’t managed to
get hold of tickets to this years ATP in Minehead or simply can’t afford it.
Here we have one of the best bands on the ATP line up but for a fraction
of the price. With LAYMAR http://www.myspace.com/laymarmusic now
on board as main support we believe this is shaping up to be one of the
greatest WOTGODFORGOT line up ever!

modalism, psychedelic rock then check it out here -

NLF3

RETRO BAR
Wednesday June 3rd

8pm
So this is going to be our first ever collaboration with our long time
promoter friends BAD UNCLE and boy are we looking forward to it! NLF3's
music has been described as "a kitsch This Heat" by The Wire, and
compared for its rhythms to a 2009 version of the Ege Bamayasi-era of
Can. The Guardian even spoke of them as "a Radiohead seduced by the
idea of live improvisation". The members of NLF3 - F.lor, Mitch and Don
Nino - name influences as varied as Pierre Henry, Fela Kuti, Steve Reich,
Ennio Moricone, as well as Syd Barrett, Zappa, Fantomas, Aphex Twin, and
Sonic Youth. Take a listen here to make a judgement for yourself -

Full line up to be completed very soon so stay in tuned!
See you all soon!!!
