The Windmill Of Your Mind - the monthly party from 1965 Records that in the past has brought you diverse bills featuring the likes of Scritti Politti, The Shortwave Set, The View and Dr Dog but this month it just gets even more eclectic with a fabulous Xmas line-up of:
VOLUNTARY BUTLER SCHEME (Stourbridge)
..conjures his own Brian Wilson-esque world of very English pop whimsy, and we're super pleased to announce that this will be a full band show.
VBS's debut EP 'Trading Things In' on The Last Layer Of Trifle Recordings got massive support from Radios 1 and 6 and Xfm and was Steve Lamacq's Single of the Week. Expect to hear loads more from VBS in 2009.
‘Lo-fi, ramshackle whimsy, a wonderful debut’ SUNDAY TIMES CULTURE
Pristine, bright textures and chuck-it-all-in instrumentation.... slightly odd, quintessentially British pop. GUARDIAN GUIDE
'effortlessly charming.’ NME

COLORAMA (Cardiff)
Wonky soul folk with a high bliss factor. Debut single 'Sound', produced by Edwyn Collins, came out earlier in the autumn of this year to lots of nods of approval.

TWELVES TRIO (Walthamstow)
A heady mix of Coltrane-esque ballads, dark twenty-first century waltzes, subtle hooks and tumbling Mingus-esque grooves that has drawn comparisons to everything from early Sonny Rollins to contemporaries such as Polar Bear
Debut album 'Here Comes The Woodman With His Splintered Soul’ recently got the big thumbs-up from The Guardian among others.

THE DEBUTANTE HOUR (Brooklyn, NY)
..are Susan Hwang and Maria Sonevytsky, a rather amazing female accordion duo from the NY antifolk scene playing roots-based originals with lots of quirky lyrics and genius
vocal harmonies. They sing about lost love, weird love, guitar heroes , the devil and other things that concern your untypical debutante (sometimes in Ukrainian).
We reckon they'll be your favourite new duo!

LILY AMBER HOGG (London)
