Cabbage / She Drew The Gun – Mash House, Edinburgh – 5 April 2018
I really liked support band She Drew The Gun last time I saw them, an easy decision to go to Mash House to catch them again and see what all the fuss was about Cabbage. And She Drew The Gun … Continue reading

Trembling Bells – Sneaky Pete’s, Edinburgh – 3 April 2018

Frankly The Smiths – Dreadnought Rock, Bathgate – 24 March 2018

Tune-Yards – Liquid Room, Edinburgh – 14 March 2018
tUnE-yArDs is the name adopted by Merrell Garbus from New England for her various changing musical projects. I liked a version of her from quite a few years ago, I bought a ticket she was so intriguing, and she is … Continue reading

iDestroy – Bannerman’s, Edinburgh – 14 March 2018
I saw bassist Becky Baldwin play with Hands Off Gretel when they supported Skating Polly, and later found out more about her variety of work as a professional bass player and was well impressed. Seemed rude not to catch one … Continue reading
