aA Present a night of psych, folk & suitably leftfield music for high Summer...

GOLDEN ANIMALS
Fabulously out there desert dwelling psych-rock-blues girl/boy two piece with added California sunshine. Influences? Moonlight, desert, symmetry, outsiders, railroads, spiritual revolution, mangos, nomads, electricity, time travel.

Global Music Press: "When they rock out in the faux-blues readymade"The Steady Roller / "You can practically inhale the pungent aroma of their pirate shirts. They're a marriage made in psychedelic desert-blues heaven." Blender / "Unpolished sound from ghostly echoes of 60's West Coast Psychedelia 50's rock and roll and swampy old blues. They have a nice, semi-chaotic way about them" Mojo / "Their ragged eclecticism is a winning one, taking detours into slide country, beat up folk and starry desert ballads" Uncut / "Transcends the limitations of their rudimentary set up. Album highlight "Queen Mary (The Flop) features multiple tempo changes and builds to an electrifying frenzy which must go down a storm in a live setting. "Ride Easy" begins as a tender country plodder, but undertakes several detours with satisfying results" DrownedInSound.com / "An intense blend of scratchy blues riffs, woozy psych, and walloped drums" NME / "They know how to riff with atomic force" Dazed and Confused

BETH JEANS HOUGHTON
Geordie folk-pop princess with her Hooves of Destiny. Despite her young years, 18-year-old Beth Jeans Houghton has a talent and energy that has already propelled her from small Newcastle folk clubs to share the stage with international folkie Devendra Banhart at the Green Man festival last year.

Looking like a gothic Gwen Stefani, but sounding more like Vashti Bunyan mixed with Espers' Meg Baird, Houghton has recently developed a relationship with Finders Keepers’ Andy Votel and his wife Jane Weaver, leading to this EP, Houghton's first release on Weaver’s Bird label as well as a new release for Static Carvan.
