Another music tip. Saw this northern band for the first time on Later w/ Jools Holland on Friday night; then watched their performances back a couple times on the iPlayer; then looked for their album on iTunes and found it for £4 (astonishingly cheap), and snapped it up. They won’t be everyone’s “cup of tea” (whatever the heck that means… surely an old colonial English phrase, as it kind of presumes the “cup of tea” is universally adored and represents heaven-come-to-earth for absolutely everyone. Anyway…), but once you click into what they’re doing, their stuff becomes pretty interesting. So far (about 6 tracks through the album), I like them.
This is one of the tracks they did on Later. The best part is where one of the other artists on the show, Maxwell, is briefly shown doing a little jig, with a rather funny smile on his face. Enjoy.
These guys are awesome, good spot. It’s nice to see they’re getting some recognition on shows like Jools. Well overdue.
