Benefit Gig For Tim Smith (Cardiacs)

Event information

BENEFIT FOR TIM SMITH (Cardiacs)
We have organised another night for the benefit of our friend and musical genius Timothy Charles Smith of that infamous Cardiacs band. For those of you who don't know, Tim suffered a heart attack following one of the My Bloody Valentine gigs he attended back in 2008. This was followed by not 1 but 2 debilitating strokes. Fans and friends a like have been organising benefits to help contribute towards the costly care that Tim needs. So please, attend our evening so we can do a little towards helping raise funds for this plucky lad.

THE DOGBONES
The Dogbones is a primal, sneering, garage punk animal chewing on a candy cane bone of pop with enough catchy choruses to choke a pig. Buzzsaw guitar, two drummers and a girl with ants in her pants.
This band is LOUD.
Featuring members of Queen Adreena, Daisy Chainsaw....

POINO
Poino first lurked into the south London underground in 2006 but it's taken til now for them to hone their magnificent debut album "Moan Loose". Fronted by the screeching vocals of ex Giddy Motors man Gaverick de Vis, they’re out to blasst the UK with alternative noise.
"captures perfectly that line between experimentalism, clever and noisy rock without becoming annoying or repetitive as many records of this type can do. It's what they use to call good, clean, honest fun. But be careful of Poino’s merry-go-round, it's fun to be dizzy, but adjusting to normal life again when you get off can take a while." - Rockfeedback

CLAIRE LEMMON
A rare set from one of Tim Smith's favourite singers, Clare Lemmon was the main songwriter and front women with seminal indie band Sidi Bou Said.
Claire very rarely plays live in public so we are doubly honoured to have her with us so make sure you get there early so as not to miss her
