Event information

It's not often that three of the countrys best live bands come together for one gig but Pure Music Live are proud to put such a gig on at what must be one of the best small venues in the UK.

TELLISON is a four piece waking nightmare of an indie rock band from Hammersmith, West London. Formed in 2005, the band have released a clutch of sold out singles, two critically acclaimed albums,( 2007's "Contact ! Contact ! " & 2011's "The Wages Of Fear"), and toured the length and breadth of The UK relentlessy. They have shared stages with Biffy Clyro, The Kooks and Noah & The Whale, supported bands as diverse as Gallows and Mumford & Sons and toured with underground heroes such as The Get Up Kids, The Promise Ring, Hot Club De Paris and Johhny Foreigner.

Their songs have featured in Hit E4 shows The Inbetweeners and Made In Chelsea, sound tracked The French Open and even Strictly Come Dancing. Their music is a schizophrenic mix of all that's best in indie rock( from Idlewild to the aformentioned Get Up Kids and Pedro The Lion through to The Weakerthans and Springsteen and Phoenix) and filtered in equal parts through a wounded laptop or a much Telecaster blended with an eye for the kind of lyrical depth, smart literary reference and Invention that sets TELLISON quite apart from their peers. A feral. sweat-soaked, wide -eyed disaster of energy on stage this band, as The Fly so aptly put it, "deserve to rule the world".

Support comes from The Darlingtons + Munich / first band 8.00pm
