Brett Anderson @ Bush Hall, London

5th March 2007
On his first night of three at Bush Hall, Brett Anderson took his audience back to the Suede days. Accompanied by Mat Osman on the bass, a 40-minute main set of his solo material with a well fitting By The Sea mixed in between was followed by an encore of an acoustic version Wild Ones, the ever so positive Everything Will Flow and crowd pleasers (sweaters) Filmstar and Trash.
Despite the dark and moody sound of his solo material, the songs came alive and the audience were mesmerized by the arse-spanking going on stage. If you had any doubts, leave them at home and make sure you don't miss his Spring tour.

Debut single Love is Dead out 19th March followed by the album Brett Anderson out 26th March 2007.

Patrick Wolf @ ICA, London

26th February 2007
Patrick's London stop for his tour promoting his new album The Magic Position was a feast for ears and taking in account of "those" shorts, a feast for eyes. With the a full band behind him, the multi-instrumentalist played his new album, The Magic Position (out now) and some oldies to an enthusiastic crowd that filled the ICA. An appearance by somewhat motionless Edward Larrikin of Larrikin Love during Accidents & Emergency and Bishi's beautiful vocals replacing the haunting vocals of Marianne Faithfull on Magpie sent the crowd in a world of bliss. The pleasure was so hard to handle for some they expressed their delight by showering themselves in glitter which didn't go unnoticed by Patrick himself as he pointed at them - "the beautiful mess you are in." The setlist also included a storming Tristan, The Libertine, a new song Blackbird, Enchanted and the upcoming single The Magic Position.

Patrick plays at the Astoria on April 11th. Tickets on sale. (Update: April 2nd All tickets sold out)
