EVERYTHING ELECTRIC SINGLE LAUNCH PARTY!
I’ll be releasing my new single with a big fat party.
It goes like this…
STEPHEN HUDSON & THE FIAT PANDAS
That’s me plus a rare appearance from my country-garage band The Fiat Pandas. We’ve added sex and murder to our usual lyrical themes of dog-walking and grandparents.

BEAT THE RADAR
Energetic, fun, brilliant alt/indie band from Manchester. Part of their
tour promoting their new album on Akoustic Anarky.

IVAN CAMPO
Preston’s best experimental folk-pop band. Plowing a similar melodic
field of dreams to Gruff Rhys, the Earlies and the Beta Band.

HARVEY LORD
A rare solo appearance from TEOHL’s frontman. He’s recently started
writing and releasing a new song every full moon, the first
of which was a total belter. Folky and unpredictable like the best bits
of Kurt Vile and Syd Barrett.

PLUS…
The folk from Lancaster’s awesome, much-missed indie disco
HOOTING & HOWLING will be throwing an after-party with some fantastic
bottom-shaking music.
CDs will be available to buy throughout the night. Starts at 8pm. £4 entry.
If your in Manchester this weekend make sure you go down to The Castle Hotel. Our very own Stephen Hudson will be playing alongside great friends Barnbox, Beat The Radar. Plus Optional Wallace, Uranium Lake, John Rennie.

STEALING SHEEP (Liverpool)
Lo-fi, DIY pop in the shape of noisily drenched old time vocals, brittle surfy guitars and pounding rhythms. Since forming in 2010, they have toured the UK and Europe opening for bands such as Best Coast, TuneYards and Emmy the Great, cut a record at Abbey Road Studios, received frequent airplay from BBC2’s Steve Lamacq, Radio 1’s Gilles Peterson, Rob Da Bank, 6music and XFM, and signed to one of the UKs best labels Heavenly Records (Fionn Regan, Doves).
Phew!

STEPHEN HUDSON & THE FIAT PANDAS (Lancaster)
Songs about teenage boys’ murderous fantasies over their parents, dog-walking, Heat magazine, cycling to Morecambe to bury yourself on the beach, sex with a teacher called Mrs Steklenberg… Stephen Hudson’s vivid imagination and lyrics are a perfect match to the ragged and fragile country-garage of his band, the Fiat Pandas. After a triumphant mini-tour of Northern England and Scotland in September this promises to be a belter.

ALL WE ARE (LIVERPOOL)
Hotly tipped by Tom Waits, this alt-pop/psychedelic folk trio spin a kaleidoscopic sound full of three part harmonies, kettle-whistling guitar and hypnotic drums. Recording their second EP in a Norwegian cabin, AWA promise to provide a magic Christmassy feel to the night.

THE BEAR AROUND YOUR NECK (Lancaster)
The project of singer/performer Nat Scott, BAYN is scruffy and impassioned indie folk. His first EP ‘At Lake Bury Me’ was an early release on Barnbox, get there early so you don’t miss him!

Just a reminder to everyone to check out Stephen Hudson. Him and his band, The Fiat Pandas are playing at The Yorkshire House on the 13th December in Lancaster. His music is readily available from his soundcloud.
