Tue 14th SHIMURA CURVES + YSN + The Kissing Time + Sandra and The Memory Machine The Luminaire presents Doors 7.30, £5 via WeGotTickets More on Shimura Curves in a minute, but meantime... Scandalous events within the walls of Club DeccaDance led the paths of Thomas J. Booth, James Knox, Yonatan Collier and Pete Wurlitzer to meet. Prior to this chance encounter Thomas, James and Yonatan had been little more than a gang of immaculately dress layabouts who spent their days chasing ladies, gambling on fillies and imbibing only the finest spirits. Under the guidance of Mr Wurlitzer they became masters of all three, and formed a band. That band was - and is - YSN. Before them we have the harmonic pop of the aptly named [it's Valentine's day, remember?] The Kissing Time. A mix of Mo Tucker and the Mamas and the Papas, the Kissing Time combine the primitive and the professional to create a bittersweet sound of indiefolkpop. "An immediate and charming sound, founded in their remarkable vocal arrangements, could see them well on their way alongside The Magic Numbers" [DiS] First on are Sandra and The Memory Machine, a ukulele-driven three piece playing music-box songs about love, death and memory, like Annie Lennox & Karen Carpenter auditioning for Talking Heads.
