BBC 6Music (Tom Ravenscroft): “wonderful, wonderful, wonderful record... it's pretty enough to drive you mad"
Sunday Times (Stewart Lee): "admirable levels of consummate artistry, good taste and obvious musical chemistry... feels like the duo just struck up in the corner at the tail end of the perfect party."
Both are masters of guitar and song and a joy to behold playing a very special show together at the best venue in London. You will kick yourself if you miss this amazing once in a lifetime show! Both these guys have such busy schedules, they might not make it over again for some time-so come along and join us!

George plays Guitar & is from East London, Rama drums & is from East Seoul. Russ plays Bass & is from Romford and 100% of Russell and the Wolf Choir. They’ve gigged with Steve Malkmus, Shonen Knife, Moon Mama (Afrirampo), Julie Doiron, Thee More Shallows, Mick Turner (Dirty Three) and David Grubbs. Radio 6/Resonance FM featured, genre defying intelligent edgy song smith that producing the kind of mortally sad, black humoured alt. folk that reminiscent of Lambchop, Mountain Goats and on occasion Shellac.

Your New Friend
Named after an obscure Smog song, this new acoustic duo features ultra baritone voiced Simon Kobayashi from smallgang, with Sun Kil Moon-esque guitar workouts from Alex Carter (Armchair Songs). They play incredibly pretty songs with a rare level of skill and complexity.
