Scenery Chewer #11 - '...the life of kings'

We at Scenery Chewer cordially invite you to embark on '…the life of kings'.

On Aug 27, 2009 at Vibe Bar, Old Truman Brewery, leave behind the toil and trouble of the city streets and escape up to where the air is infused with the majestic artistic talents of London’s little known but promising musicians and photographers.

Inspired by a quote from renowned journalist H.L Mencken and famously used in the final ever episode of The Wire, this musical performance and photography exhibition is all in the name of the fantastic charity Youth Music (www.youthmusic.org.uk), set up in 1999 to promote and support music-making opportunities for underprivileged children with the least access across the UK.

The night will be an original mixture of photographic art alongside performances from live bands and DJs, which will all be exhibited in the cosy confines upstairs at Vibe Bar, Brick Lane.

Featured photographic works will include:

Luke Kemp, Nick Boyd, Jessika Green, Talitha Robert, Kirsty Thornley, Tom Chudley, Anne Duffau, Pearl Marjorie Draps, Monika Magiera, May McNair, Simon Langford-Ely, and many more.

Event set design will be provided by Murielle Gandre.

Live bands who will be performing on stage will include:

Their Hearts Were full of Spring

Hello all,

Scenery Chewer will be rearing its pretty head at The Wilmington Arms to bring you a cracking line up of music for the stupidly low price of £3.

Named after the little seen but much loved film by Wes Anderson and starring Owen Wilson, 'Bottle Rocket', like the film of its namesake, will be a low budget but destined for cult status affair. People will speak of this night in hushed yet awed tones for years to come.

All proceeds will go to the Youth Music charity (www.youthmusic.org.uk).

The night will see the first headline performance by the much loved Record Department, as well as the funky pop stylings of Calling Cairo.

As usual, our resident starlet Laura will be bringing the Paper Horse magic, accompanied by the first Scenery Chewer performance from Robh Hokum.

Hear great music. Meet lovely people. And its all for charity.
