Scenery Chewer #17 - Bright Young Suns
Hi all,
We are attempting to make summer come early so get your glad rags and join us for the next Scenery Chewer, 'Bright young Suns', which is being curated by our friends at withtheband (www.withtheband.co.uk).
In one night you will bear witness to a relaunch, a new album, and new bands tipped for success. And all for the princely sum of ... FREE. Also returning, we have Scenery Chewer's resident DJ, Bon Chic Bon Genre!
A percentage of any money you spend on the bar goes straight to the amazing charity Youth Music so you can walk away feeling tipsy and smug that you have helped a great cause.
Scenery Chewer is all about being tipsy and smug.
Come down to 93 Feet East, Brick Lane, on the 23rd February for some rocket-sized tunes and great, flowing company. Doors open at 7.30 pm.
All the best,
Tiru
Producer and Founder of Scenery Chewer
KINGSIZE

We are really chuffed to play host to the relaunch of London band Kingsize who have been feverishly writing and re-inventing themselves as a band. They were always good before so expect something remarkable.
THE OCTOBER GAME

Bedfordshire band The October Game have gone from strength to strength over the last couple of years, finding fans in those that know their stuff like Radio 6’s Tom Robinson. They launch their 2nd album “Wildblood” the week of this gig.
JUMPING SHIPS

Jumping Ships are a Brighton band who in their year and a half of playing together have toured the UK 3 times, been part of shows for The Great Escape, BBC Introducing, Club NME, Leftfield Glastonbury and Rock Against Racism supporting bands such as Biffy Clyro, Bombay Bicycle Club, Flood of Red, General Fiasco and The Most Serene Republic.
‘"Ted Leo meets Karate melodic punk-rock ... Jumping Ships? Time to get on board people!"
(NME Magazine)
“Jumping Ships are a local band set to play alongside more established acts such as Doves, The Lemonheads and Biffy Clyro”

ICE BLACK BIRDS

Another great Brighton band (clearly there’s something in the water there), Ice Black Birds were Radio 1’s Huw Stephen’s tip of the week at the start of January this year. They have already been hand picked by the likes of Golden Silvers, Joe Gideon and The Shark, Wave Machines, Goldhawks and We Have Band to support them on tour and played various venues across the country such as Concorde 2, Club NME and Proud Galleries amongst others.
Ice Black Birds’ quality lies in being able to create a song with catchy riffs that sound great on first hearing them and yet somehow mange to improve on subsequent listens.

LISA MADISSON
www.myspace.com/madissonmusic
Lisa is a withtheband favourite and played at our launch back in June. She’ll be doing a short acoustic set to start the evening off and i guarantee her haunting voice and beautiful lyrics will be worth getting down early for. She's also our only lass of the night successfully making the night a non sausage fest.
Youth Music is the UK’s largest children’s music charity. Since 1999, we have touched over 2 million young lives through the power of music. This year we are 10 and we want everyone to help us celebrate, not just our birthday but our belief in the power of music to change lives.
