MMM... GOOD TIMES
Friday 12th March 2010
Gentlemen's Agreement + The Rebel + The Good News
*£4 on the door, ladies half price*
A headline show by Gentlemen's Agreement, who comprise about half of Croydon supergroup Do Me Bad Things, a splinter of pop legends Scritti Politti and the amazing Chantal Brown, singer with much-lauded soul-metal combo Invasion. Expect to hover unexpectedly in that area where Doobie Brothers yacht rock meets blistering power ballads; a genuinely jaw-dropping spectacle on London's indie circuit.
Support comes from Ben Wallers aka The Rebel; the erstwhile Country Teasers frontman delivers rootsy Americana to make you confront your deepest social prejudices. First up are The Good News, an impossibly youthful, compelling new band who sound for all the world like Haircut 100 with attention deficit disorder. DJs will play a smooth selection of not remotely guilty pleasures. Mmm... Good Times...

MONDAYMONDAY
Monday 15th March 2010
Wendy Arrowsmith + The Road
7:45pm. £7.00
Born and raised in the suburbs of Glasgow, Wendy’s musical influences as a child were mostly Trad Jazz or Church hymns! Although she learnt Burns and other traditional Scottish songs at school, it wasn’t until she moved to England to marry that she began to really delve into traditional folk music. Wendy has sung many different styles of music – ranging from large scale classical choral works, operetta and musicals to backing vocalist for a prog rock band! But with folk music she has found songs that come from the heart and allow great emotional expression and social commentary. She describes herself as “a singer who plays guitar”, but this shouldn’t detract from Wendy’s musical abilities not just on guitar, but also on whistles, bodhran, mandolin and most recently accordion.
