Scenery Chewer #18 - Life In Marvellous Times


Scenery Chewer Presents Life in Marvellous Times
7.30 – 11 pm

FREE FREE FREE @ 93 Feet East
Bar takings go to charity Youth Music (www.youthmusic.org.uk)

Sweet Jesus. It looks like we at Scenery Chewer have somehow been blessed/burdened with what is now a regular night at 93 Feet East. The last Tuesday of every month. I have no idea how I allowed this to happen, as my brain is already straining at the thought of giving you lucky bears an amazing night of music EVERY month from now on for the rest of my life.

Thankfully, the first regular night is off to a bloody good start, with a headlining slot from Clip Stamp Fold (whose bassist has long been doing our flyers for us, so this is our way of saying thank you) and Black Daniel (who promise to be mighty). Also, returning are old favourites in new threads, Calling Cairo, and the elusive, tender and tired, Hoshal Patrick.

BCBG will be on DJ duties.

Come along. Its free.

Plus I will be there, and I am ace.

Producer and Founder of Scenery Chewer.

Line Up:

Clip Stamp Fold
www.myspace.com/clipstampfold

Although their name is sourced from the international design project, this London four-piece have little in common with it aside from three quarters of the band being designers themselves. Sitting between Bloc Party and Joy Division and being described as 'indie' and 'post-punk', amongst other things, the band have been steadily plying their trade around England's capital since early 2009, including a jam-packed headline act at the Notting Hill Arts Club and as well as many other great gigs at venues such as The Good Ship, 333 Mother Bar, The Bull & Gate and Buffalo Bar.

Black Daniel

When it doesn’t have 5 or 4, Black Daniel has 3 members. They are brothers Luke and Lamik2000 from London town and Craig Louis Higgins Jnr from New York via Cape Cod. Meeting for the first time in Manhattan through a “friend” on the dancefloor of a lower east side disco, they quickly discovered a mutual love of animal tranquilisers and long walks in the rain. Some would say forming a band seemed like the logical progression, but it took a tour of the states with the brothers masquerading as DJs and C.LH. jnr doing his own special brand of tour management before the inevitable finally happened. Sometimes something just feels right. This wasn’t one of those times but they did it anyway.

From that moment on its been a series of Japanese stage invasions, cow bell solos, bloodied microphones, blow up dolls, leather pant experiments, uncle Warrens trumpet, wigs, wood nymphs and general good times all the way. Black Daniel will be coming to a theatre near you soon…

Calling Cairo

When pop, rock and synths collide: beats to rattle your bones and melodies you’ll take home. If happiness is a warm gun, then Calling Cairo are a smoking barrel.

Hoshal Patrick

www.myspace.com/hoshalpatrick

Vague assertions have placed Mr. Hoshal Patrick's first day on this Earth as somewhere around the year 1603. The matter of his continual reappearance in the halls of history up to and including the present day is keeping biographers in business and keeping historians up at night. Rumour has it he is currently roaming the lanes of London, cleverly disguised as two young musicians and their laptop, singing songs about the sea, the cinema, and everything in between.
