We're branching out into live music promotion this week - here are the details:
THURSDAY 27th March 2014 at THE CLUNY, Newcastle
As part of our ongoing fundraising efforts we're putting on EIGHT great local artists/bands for a mere £5 entry.
This is only possible due to the generosity of the performers who are giving their time for free, and the venue. We'd like to place on record our gratitude.

The Unreliable Narrator

Singer/songwriter Chris Whiting has a unique style of performing, often utilising different vocal styles within his clever, witty and original songs. He'll be joined by a new collaborator, his sister Ruth, for this gig.

Paige Temperley & Allan Hyslop

These two were made to sing together. Paige is known for her sweet and charming vocal style as well as her fine songwriting, both of which she now employs within the popular group Oursleves & Us. Allan is lead singer and songwriter for upcoming band Kosoti and was formerly lead in James Allan & Co.

The Shooting Of...
https://soundcloud.com/theshootingof
Paul Jeans has been around the local music scene for some time in various guises (most notably perhaps Jeans Goes Pop and The Lindsay Tin) and his latest project gives him the chance to show off his songwriting craft and musicianship to the max.

Gem Andrews
https://soundcloud.com/gem-andrews
I read somewhere that Gem sings 'dark country ballads' and whilst that's true, it misses out the fact that she has a voice reminiscent of K D Lang. A fantastic and underrated talent.

What We Call Progress
http://whatwecallprogress.bandcamp.com/
John Pattison and David Young wouldn't be out of place as members of Radiohead. The music may be synth-based but there's nothing synthetic about the emotion in John's voice. They've some new songs to showcase at the gig.
9-30-9-50
Meghann Clancy
https://soundcloud.com/meghannclancy
Despite her young age Meghann has been a stalwart of the local folk/acoustic scene for some time and is known for her delicate and beautiful songs and vocal talent.

Peculiar Disco Moves
https://soundcloud.com/peculiar-disco-moves
The North East's most quirky, fun band. Like Ben Folds Five with a sense of humour. Guaranteed to put a smile on your face.
