We try to do just one gig per month but this one was too good for us to pass up. With our friends OIB Records we’re putting on Canadian country experimentalist Eric Chenaux (Constellation Records – home of ASMZ, Godspeed, Vic Chestnutt et al) along with Willkommeners Curly Hair, soon to be releasing a split and touring with Klaus Says Buy The Record, plus the special live debut of Redwood Red – the solo songs of Cathy, female vocalist from Sons of Noel and Adrian.
It all takes place at the Albert, Brighton, on 25th March. There are further details here.
