When punk blues folk and spoken word converse in a Jazz clubL.A. SALAMI:
As much a philosopher as a popsmith articulate and versatile. One of the premier lyricists of his generation he remains curious still distinguishing the illusory from the eternal the true from the beguiling; keeping the faith in his own cynical yet impassioned way.
L.A. Salami (Lookman Adekunle Salami) is a singer/songwriter from London known for crafting magnetic blues-rock songs with a postmodern twist.His love for music began when he first heard Bob Dylan on the radio subsequently leading him to explore more blues and folk music and inspiring him to write his own songs; unfortunately however he could not afford his own instrument and wasn't introduced to one until he was given a guitar for his 21st birthday. After three months of soul-searching tapping into different creative avenues and sleeping rough Salami eventually had his first few songs written and set out to land some gigs. Success soon came knocking after relentless gigging starting with a tour support slot for Lianne La Havas in 2012. The rest is history.
STAGE DOOR GUY:
A Mancunian walks into a bar in New Orleans. He staggers past a guy downing his 5th neat whiskey. They form a band. Stage Door Guy is a post-punk blues duo mash up of Professor Longhair The Dead Kennedys and Dr John Cooper Clarke. With three acclaimed albums under their belt they were described by Louder Than War's John Robb's as: "... a quirky off-kilter slice of snarky swing with a rocking core"
Their latest album is the critically acclaimed 'Stage Door Guy Beach Party
