Anyone in The Portland Arms in Cambridge would have had a great time last night.. These boys were on fine form.!

@crazyfool1i did speak to Chris and Kiran after and told them they were letting you down by not having a ‘home’ gig this tour.!

my only complaint is that The Portland Arms staff were far too efficient in replenishing empty glasses..(I feel particularly fragile today as I travel into London for the football..)

if their tour comes anywhere near you, I would wholeheartedly recommend…

small venues, cheap tickets, massive energy.! What’s not to like.?

Great stuff … I think they are going to be touring a new album in feb with a Bristol show … which Is very doable … enjoy the game

Yep, I saw them last night in Cambridge and they were excellent. Really liked Junodef who were supporting too.

Good stuff and good to see the drummer Chris with his usual expressive face 🙂

Oh no! I’ve just got tickets to see them on 5th Nov in my fave little local venue. I wonder if that will be ok?

Yep at the moment the nov part of the tour is unaffected … hopefully the rest of them won’t catch it … firmly crossing fingers it can still go ahead

I saw these guys last weekend at Rockaway Beach. Great live band, real Duracell bunny energy levels, who went down really well with the crowd. They were booked as the Friday opener when not everybody had arrived but by hanging around for the weekend they managed to get a second set on the Sunday when Odd Morris cancelled because of Covid and with that set they really knocked it out of the park.

Thanks ... they had actually got 20 mins down the road im told on  the way home when they had to do and about turn .... momentum  building for them I think hopefully they might fill some slots at festivals over the summer should there be some dropouts .... hoping for Glastonbury obviously 🙂

We made a point to get there for the Friday opening gig. Excellent again.

Another amazing track on its way

[Crazyfool01]

New single … insects 🐜

Not the 6pm Glastonbury I hoped for but wasn’t expecting… new album though

Wow. Huge memory throwback here.  I stumbled across these guys when they were called The Darlingtons (I think?) about 2013/14.  Great live, great songs and huge stage presence.  Had a drank with them after a Tramlines set in Sheff and they were great guys too.  When they went to October Drift the sound changed and I was less keen but glad to hear they're still going and seems be doing well.

I wonder if there is any chance they get a slot on the farm this year?   First heard them on JP in 2017, and have been one of my favourite bands since.  New album shaping up to be as good as the last one.
