Singing Adams + The Sharp Tongues + Gemma Ray December 19, 2010

The Totally Tidy Tours Xmas Piss-up
Our favourite Welsh renegades throw a party like no other mere non-Welsh can. Three ace acts plus an out-there compere and DJ sets from The Heartbreakers and very special guests.

SINGING ADAMS
…is the new band fronted by Steven Adams, previously of the The Broken Family Band. and joined by Matt Ashton (Saloon), Melinda Bronstein (Absentee, Wet Paint) and Michael Wood (Michaelmas). They've already stormed through Green Man and End of the Road festivals and this special co-headline treat is their first club gig of the season. Expect warm yet sometime off-kilter melodies and wry, wry lyrics.
Debut single "I Need Your Mind" is released on 6th Dec on Records Records Records.

THE SHARP TONGUES
Having relocated to London, UK, Julia Muth, weirdo-guitar champion of Toronto’s secret rock scene (no REALLY, they don’t want ANYONE to know), teamed up with the Totally Tidy twins, Stewart and Paul Summers (Duvals, Ten Benson etc), to create some hard, sharp, but still ragged in the right places) soul-garage sounds.
This year has seen them support British Sea Power at the tan Hill festivals and tour the UK with Ohio sensations The Greenhornes.

GEMMA RAY
She's from the wrong side of the tracks. Uncouthly ace. "It's A Shame About Gemma Ray", the follow up album to her glittering debut, "The Leader" is out now on Bronzerat Records.
“Blowing sugary femme-pop out of the water. Gemma Ray is untouchable” – NME
"Had Phil Spector forced his girl groups in a more noir-soundtrack direction, this might've been the result. Ray has a truly impressive feel for vintage pop flourishes, layered to lavish effect. And all those details are what you're supposed to be paying attention to, right up until the blade hits your back.” SPIN
"If Pulp Fiction were remade to include a church scene, then London’s queen of all things noir Gemma Ray would provide the soundtrack and possibly a part as Uma Thurman’s best mate." - MOJO
