Tall Firs + Chora + Dean McPhee at Cafe Oto on the 17th December
A bit late notice as we've been tied up with ATP and work stuff, but we're putting on a gig tomorrow at Cafe Oto. And it'll be great.
TALL FIRS
http://www.myspace.com/tallfirs
Tall Firs conclude their recent, lauded ‘Glass Rock’ short tour with Sonic Youth and Steve Malkmus by stripping down to the core trio of Dave Miles, Aaron Mullan and Ryan Sawyer to deliver their taut, thrilling Television-meets-Crazy Horse twin guitar attack.
"Shifts gear with an easy grace from intertwining guitar drifts to more gnarled, backwoods riffage that nods to Crazy Horse and CCR" THE WIRE
"A muscularity that recalls Neil Young in one of his more ornery moods, or a beefed-up Galaxie 500" THE GUARDIAN
CHORA
http://www.myspace.com/chora
Over the last few years Chora have engineered an elemental, exhilarating strain of improvised psychedelia that pulsates with the fearsome spirit of the finest free music and the basest, most primitive heavy rock.
"Shifting sonic territories and a sense of perpetual struggle create a volatility that really does feel like life lived on the edge" THE WIRE
Dean McPhee
http://www.myspace.com/deanmcphee
This superb bill will be opened by Lancastrian finger-picker DEAN McPHEE’s arresting, implausibly beautiful solo compositions for solo electric guitar.
"Arguably the best solo guitar record in the past few years" 10/10 FOXY DIGITALIS
YEAH!
