BOAT TO ROW ADDED TO MAY

So far we have had mostly Punk, Indie or Alternative bands play at Out Of Step with our ears left ringing by the end of the night.This May we bring you a more subtle blend of Folk.Yes folk people.We have the Brilliant Aspen Sails,Jim Lockey And the Solemn Sun and now just added we have 'Boat To Row'.

You may now Boat To Row due to both Michael and Ben playing in Bronze Medals and Youves.

Guitarist in Birmingham Punk/New Wavers, Youves Michael King has embarked on a side project under the moniker Boat To Row, where his songwriting & performing talents have really been placed on show.
Michael’s knack of writing great lyrics, coupled with a good old fashioned sense of real heart-lifting melodies is a breath of fresh air in a scene where the majority of singer-songwriters opt for the easy option of moaning about lost love.

Bronze Medals

As promised here's some pics of Bronze Medals form Monday, they were really good live and had a tight live sound mixing vocal harmonies with angular guitars and the drummer didn't miss a beat for the whole set. Unfortunately for them Wolverhampton traffic wardens ruined their dinner plans so they had to get some to reheat.

I would definitely recommend seeing them live if you get the opportunity and make sure you go and say hello to them to as they're really nice guys and interesting to have a chat with.

OUT OF STEP 29th March

Like Rich said in the previous post Monday's Out Of Step had an epic line up with some of the best live acts I've seen this year. Photo's of which will be uploaded soon.
I was gutted to miss Cajole Cajole and didn't hear a bad word about their set from any of the audience and although I didn't get to enjoy their set I had a very entertaining dinner with Failures Union.

Again as Rich said before a massive thanks to Peter for keeping the sound spot on all night! Big thanks also to all the bands and most of all everyone who came and helped make it such a great night.

Below are some nice pictures of the audience enjoying one of the four amazing acts we put on. The light's look amazing and I like the way the same girl managed to get into all the pics.

CHECK OUT TIME

Well it's Mothers day and if you haven't got your old lady

anything good then maybe you should get her a record by one of the following bands below?That's if you can get hold of their stuff that is.If you do im sure a CD-R will be good enough.

First up on the check out time list

The Racket

Real lo-fi shitgaze punk band from London.There really obsessed with The Ramones so that's a good start.

Taken of their myspace in their own words

"When boy meets girl, or girl meets boy, there is only one certainty... Boy will eventually leave girl, or girl will eventually leave boy. Rather than get angry about this situation The Racket decided to steal all The Ramones records they could get their hands on, 'borrow' old electric guitars from ex-lovers and write a whole load of songs about romance, ice cream and artistic exhibitions.Sometimes they play in other bands, sometimes they put on club nights and sometimes they even write Middle 8s.

One day they will play a gig, they will dress with style and wit, and probably break your heart just a little bit. But that's ok you wouldn't want to marry The Racket anyway. It's a holiday romance thing, a Friday night house party thing, a rebound thing. Going steady just isn't their way."

Second up

Bronze Medal's.

This Birmingham three-piece are playing at Out Of Step this month and were all looking forward to them. Having a hearty mix of Minus the Bear and Good Shoes angular guitar sounds their track's up on their myspace are a joy to the ears.

Myspace

Third up

Ice Sea Dead People

Names of bands can be really shit but i think Ice Sea Dead People has to be my favourite band name i have heard in a long while and i can think of a thousand flyer/poster illustration idea's when they get round to playing at Out Of Step. Their sound is early Q and not U and Foals with-out the math style punk.

"Awesome."
Zane Lowe - BBC Radio One (well if he think's it,so should you)

And last up

Cajole Cajole

The thing with Wolverhampton is everyone want's to be The Twang and think that 1995 never happened for some strange reason. Wolverhampton's own Cajole Cajole are a real breathe of fresh air in the Midlands indie scene right now. They have been describe by many as 'Strokes fronted by Ryhs Jones of Good Shoes.

The track 'over the landscapes' sounds like the Maccabees before they went all shit.

And there playing Out Of Step on 29th March so you have to come see them before they head of into the big wide world of N.M.E cover's.
