THE LOFT
“Seminally seminal…” – Steve Lamacq
The Loft, original Creation Records legends, set out on a UK tour next March in support of their forthcoming, ‘debut’ album.
The original line up of Pete Astor, Dave Morgan, Bill Prince and Andy Strickland, embark on their first ever UK club tour, 40 years after the classic ‘Up The Hill And Down The Slope’, topped the indie singles chart.
Since their infamous onstage split at the Hammersmith Palais in ‘85, their status as one of the UK’s most influential guitar bands of the 80s continues to grow and to influence a host of younger artists.
“It’s incredibly exciting to not only be setting out on tour again, but now with a brand new set of songs to play alongside some of our, ahem, ‘greatest hits’, says drummer, Dave Morgan.
“The Loft has always been just the same four people and it’s a real thrill to be playing across the UK with the band again. We’re sounding better than ever…”
THE LOVELY BASEMENT
Bristol-based band the Lovely Basement play jangly indie pop-rock - think the Velvet Underground & Belle and Sebastian.Post-cool or too old to care?
Lovely beings in the Basement are:
Kevin Bache: guitars, vocals
Steve Dew: drums, percussion
Katie Scaife: guitars, vocals
Paul Waterworth, bass
GERARD STARKIEFormer lead singer with Witness, the band signed to Island Records released two albums; Before The Calm (1999) and Under A Sun (2001). They both received the most extraordinary critical applause, some of which was especially reserved for Starkie's own performances.
Gerard now performs and records as both a solo artist and with Hazel Winter as The Jesus Bolt

Tickets will go on sale at 10.00am on Saturday 19th October.
