Sat 17th The Luminaire presents THE FRANK AND WALTERS + Pilotlight + Bucky
Doors 7.30
Mixing up tracks from their most recent album 'A Renewed Interest In Happiness' with back-catalogue classics, The Frank & Walters aren't likely to shirk their responsibilities as far as St. Patrick's Day in Kilburn is concerned. “A Renewed Interest In Happiness” by The Frank And Walters, tells us that everything is going to be OK. It is an antidote to the trials and tribulations we all face. Questions and answers beautifully packaged in unforgettably perfect melodies. Expect the same from their live show. Pilot Light are a London-based four-piece hailing from Dublin originally. The band create intensely emotional music, verging from fragile and intricate to harsh and overwhelming. With three Irish independent releases under their belt - the last one reaching the top 40 of the national singles chart - Pilotlight decided to relocate to the UK in 2006. 'Bite Your Nails' is Pilotlight's first UK single, out on Coercion Records, March 19th. “Bite Your Nails is a beautiful rock exercise, with alternating light and dark, from loose spaces of melody, it rips unexpectedly to a fury of guitar outbursts” (Indiepop.it) Opening, we're very pleased to say, are Bucky. It's Ritalin all round as attention-deficit-disorder duo Bucky begin to start getting around to commencing. Their clowning, distracted asides and high-jink japery draws the crowd closer and they have warmth in spades. They are the unholy love child of Sparks, They Might Be Giants and Momus, with songs about teenage hormonal misery, moody stropping and the vaingloriously misunderstood. Rocket-speed pocket opera jammed into square peg, round hole two-minute miniatures. "The best band in the world!" [Crispian Mills] "GarageRock&RollBubblegumCountryPunkFun" [TV's Iain Lee] "The best band I've ever heard that I never got around to booking until now." [The Luminaire's Andy Inglis] |
