Our next Knees UP! presents more extraordinary music in the cozy club confines. The Rhynes (pronounced "reens") were originally formed by Joe Atkinson (Flipron, Neville Staple Band, Donovan) The Rhynes have released two albums on Tiny Dog Records on which Atkinson plays everything except the drums which are supplied by Matty Bane from The Neville Staple Band. (The Damned's Rat Scabies also played drums on a couple of tracks on the first album, including the debut single "Here She Comes"). Featuring jangly 60s guitar and vocal harmonies, reviews have made comparisons with Teenage Fanclub, Rain Parade and early REM.
Gerard Starkie is the former lead singer of Witness who released two albums on Island Records in 1999 and 2001. After the band split Gerard went on to record and tour extensively as guitarist in The Blue Aeroplanes. He now records and performs under his own name and as half of The Jesus Bolt.
As always, the event is FREE but please be generous when the hat is passed.
