FULL BAND SHOW

The Hounds of Love Band….. represent all that is honest about performing great music. This is a group of dedicated musicians fronted by vocalist Josie Mills who love and appreciate the work of Kate Bush, her compositions always elevated to a heart felt live performance. See the Hounds of Love band live and youll never experience a pastiche or cabaret act, theyre more of a deal to inspire anyone to reach out for the original recordings that deservedly span generations of music lovers. Josie Mills, singer, comes from York. Singing a pop song is one big step away from singing the diverse musical styles and athletic range demanded in performing a Kate Bush song. Without attempting to emulate the sound of Kate Bush, Josie finds the expression to communicate the songs of Kate Bush with impressive passionate sympathy.

FRISKO PROMOTIONS PRESENT

12 DIRTY BULLETS
Formed Summer 2007 by brothers Jamie and Josh Jamieson, the 12 Dirty Bullets powered onto the scene as a refreshing alternative to the touchy-feely indie rock that was saturating the airwaves. Honest lyrics and commanding riffs mix with unique guitar sounds to make them one of West London's most exciting bands.

Since returning from a headline slot at the 12 Days of Christmas festival in Dublin, with a range of high profile gigs under their belts in the UK, 12 Dirty Bullets agile riffs and shouty polemics (NME) are fast gaining them a loyal following as a tight and already accomplished young band doing their rather incisive thing rather well (Organ Magazine)

Their debut album, produced by Hugh Jones (Harrisons/Charlatans/Echo & the Bunnymen) at Chapel Studios, was released late this year and in the words of the NME

"promises to be a true London milestone!"

THE LAMBRETTAS
30th Anniversary of Poison Ivy which was released 28th Jan 1980.
Named after the iconic Italian Lambretta scooter brand popular among Mods, the band was formed in Brighton. Their biggest hit was in 1980, with a cover version of the 1950s Leiber and Stoller song, Poison Ivy.
Re-formed in 2009 with Doug Sanders taking over vocal duties, Paul Wincer on drums, guitarist Philip Edwards and Chris Venzi-James on bass,

LONG TALL SHORTY
Long Tall Shorty where do you start? In 1978 I suppose formed by Tony Perfect as a leading light in the Mod Revival movement releasing the iconic singles By Your Love/1970s Boy and Win or Lose amongst others.
The line has always been a fluid feature of Long Tall Shorty and now features a stripped down three piece, Tony Perfect - Vocals/Guitar, John Woodward Bass and Jim Piddington on Drums. Along with the stripped down line-up Shorty have pioneered a new style of music Giffer Punk and have taken this away from the traditional haunts of Soho and Central London to the far flung reaches of Europe to spread the Giffer sound.

THE SUSPICIONS
youll know what to expect from The Suspicions. And if not? Think of a smoky basement club. Think sweat dripping from the ceilings. Think the Yardbirds but with Reggie King on vocals. In the words of the immortal Donald Duck Dunn, these boys roll like the proverbial steam train. So what is this? British RnB? Powerpop? Maximum Garage Soul? You decide!
