Any takers for Psapp on Tuesday evening

Filed under: General — richard @ 6:36 pm

Afternoon all,
I’d mentioned before, but the time is almost upon us. Any interest in going to see Psapp at Spitz at Spitalfields on Tuesday evening?:
“Emerging from Galia Durant and Carim Clasmann’s bulging bag of toytronica is a world where incongruous musical ideas happiliy mingle. Unashamed choruses proudly sit atop intricate, warm electronics, plucked violins, meowing cats, mechanical chickens and microphones left in the rain. Psapp’s lovelorn tunes tell tales of everyday insecurities with a refreshing honesty.”
Or, as I prefer to describe them, “The sound of a rainy Sunday afternoon in North London”. Not quite sure why, as I have not spent that much time in North London, much less rainy Sundays.
More at: myspace.com/psapp – Video of “Tricycle”: http:// tinyurl.com/zl7ua
For the populists amongst you. you might recognise them as the authors of the theme tune to “Grey’s Anatomy” (C5, Thursdays after House, if you’re a medical drama junky like me, who’s recently lost interest in ER). Their new album (”The Only Thing I Ever Wanted” was out last Monday) is shaping up to be a bit more accessible than the first one (”Tiger, My Friend”), but still with the kooky ‘toytronica’ and damp microphones.
Tickets are £7. Show starts, I think, at 7pm. I’m certainly going, and would enjoy a spot of company for (hopefully) beer and food (possibly curry related) afterwards.
