WOLF PEOPLE

Event information

WOLF PEOPLE (London)
The first British band ever to be signed up by the mega-impressive Jagjaguwar label (Bon Iver, Sunset Rubdown, Dinosaur Jr, Lightning Dust, Parts & Labor, Women etc etc) play a one-off show to celebrate the launch of their dark and frenzied album 'Tidings'.
An alchemistic compendium of English classic rock that has been doused in wine, 'Tidings' was actually recorded by their singer Jack Sharp before the band muscled up into a four-piece, so expect even more noise live on stage!
The tunes themselves are full of hissing guitars, distorted blues harmonica, acid rock, mystical flutes and crackling tape, often based on updated versions of classic blues structures and half-remembered English folk songs, reminiscent of Faust, early Mothers of Invention and, yep, Jethro Tull.

THE JOHNNY PARRY BAND
Hushed swampy sounds of genius; your guide to a dark, complex yet ultimately beautiful world. Last year's 'More Love and Death' album on the highly-respected Terrascope label brought much acclaim and, on stage, Mr Parry and his highly musical band never fail to move or disappoint.
'A piano led thing of beauty' - Time Out
'Parry's poems of morbid carnality and romance are framed by heavy velvet curtains of stylized theatrical gloom' - Uncut, 2009
