Phosphoresent, Friendly Fire and Me

Really looking forward to my first gig for local promoter heroes Capsule on Saturday June 5th at the Hare and Hounds Kings Heath.

For those that may not already know, the Capsule ladies have a exceptional 10 year hisory of running extremely good concerts and also the Supersonic Festival – two of Birmingham’s finest.

On this occasion, I’ll be supporting Phosphorescent – an interesting touring outfit from America with a very nice line folky americana.

They are based around the work of Brooklyn, NY resident Mathew Houck and have released several albums to critical acclaim, offering something to fans of Dylan, Willie Nelson or the Fleet Foxes.

They are supported by Forest Fire – whose album Survival was one of Rough Trades top ten albums of last year.

I’ll be happily propping up the bill (so get there nice and early as I’ll be up soon after the 8pm start) tickets are £10 from the ticket sellers – but I have a deal where there first 10 people to email me a reply can get tickets for only £7 – so drop me a line asap if you can make it and I’ll sort you out.
