Scenery Chewer #15 - Young Hearts Spark Fire : curated by Victoria and Jacob

Scenery Chewer Presents Young Hearts Spark Fire
Curated by Victoria and Jacob.

FREE

Tuesday Dec 1st
Doors Open 7.30 pm
@ 93 Feet East, 150 Brick Lane, E1 6QL

The soon-to-be world conquering Victoria and Jacob, in the run up to their headline performance at NME Calling, have decided to curate the next Scenery Chewer event at 93 Feet East.

And as expected from these two tasteful young troubadours, the line up is staggering.

As always, the event is FREE, but takings from the bar near the stage will go to the charity Youth Music (www.youthmusic.org.uk).

So be sure to buy your drinks in the Main Stage bar, where the bands are. Otherwise your money is going to waste!

Now fill your ears:

ANGRYDAN
www.myspace.com/angrydanmusic
Glitch-core drum and bass. Beatboxing, nursery rhymes. And some serious electronic spazzing.

GECKO
www.myspace.com/gecko
World musicality, poetic Brit flair and some playful wit.

JONJON
www.myspace.com/themusicofjonjon
A melancholic indie-electro one man band. So good they named him twice.

JESS MARLOWE
www.myspace.com/jessmarlowe
Passionate, soaring, indie songstress.

VICTORIA AND JACOB (DJ set)
www.myspace.com/victoriandjacob
Playing an array of indie, folktronica and IDM for your ears to feast on.

So come down and take a break from all that Christmas crap.

Scenery Chewer #14 - Yes! I Am A Long Way From Home!

Hi all.

And so it begins.

The first Scenery Chewer event curated by someone else other than me sees the young Kimberly Liu stepping up to the plate and organising her first ever art show. It promises to be wild and exotic, with work being exhibited and sold over the course of the following week, so if you are feeling flush, get your wallet out, and buy someone something lush.

Or just come along to the launch party on November the 6th and get joyous! It will be at The Others in Stoke Newington (go here for a map - www.theothers.uk.com).

We have three musical debuts from three soon-to-be Scenery Chewer favourites.

Liam Butler will open proceedings with his heart-snapping lyrics and tender guitar, and, we hope, one or two Daniel Johnston covers, as well as his own gorgeous songs.

Then, we have the return of the elusive genius of Ylid. If you have never heard of Ylid, let alone knew that he had been away, and are dying to ask him why he went away and why he has come back, or if you don't really care but would still like to make conversation with someone/anyone, come down and ask him. But only after you pick your jaws up off the floor.

And top top it all off, we have Say Yes. All you need to know is that it's a Jacob Mayfield project. And it will kill you. With beauty.

DJ Pete Scott will attempt to hold these three titans together like really sticky glue, but really sticky glue that will also make you dance like a deranged monkey.

And if that wasn't enough, poetry troupe Press Free Press will be on stage bringing the literary rock and roll fun, iambic pentameter to your skulls.

The suggested donation on the door of £5 will all go towards the work of Youth Music (www.youthmusic.org.uk). When I say "suggested donation", I say that loosely. Scenery Chewer does what it does to raise funds for worthy causes so please be generous, be kind, and rewind.

Come down, have fun, be grand.

Well, we didn't stay away for long.

The new Scenery Chewer will be harder, better, faster, and stronger than before, and like a four year old little Sri Lankan boy, it will charm and dazzle you with its devastatingly good looks and stunning smile.

From now on, YOU get to curate Scenery Chewer nights. So if you, your band, your work colleagues, your arts collective, your website, your magazine, hell, even your family, want to pick some performers and artists for your own Scenery Chewer event, let me know.

To kick us off, we have a belter.

The night will celebrate the first single launch of our good friends, Record Department, with support from some cracking new faces and some lovely old ones.

Record Department (www.recorddepartment.co.uk)

Calling Cairo (www.myspace.com/callingcairo)

Our resident DJ, the mysterious and elusive BCBG, will provide the aural fondling.

Also, we have a photography exhibition from the not-for-profit organisation R-Point (www.rpoint.org.uk).

At the end of the night, the kindly 93 Feet East will make a donation to children's music charity, Youth Music. This means that, because Scenery Chewer is solely concerned with raising money for charity rather than personal gain, this night is FREE FREE FREE.

Come play with us.
