The Damo Suzuki Network
lead vocalist from CAN playing with Improvisational & Spontanious Network
Musicians.
Damo Suzuki's Network is an assembly of musicians. It's a collective meeting
place where like minded people go The goal is simple, for musicians to
communicate with each other and with the audience. There are no ego's involved.
Musicians send smoke signals to each other. They respond in kind. Damo selects
musicians who have the potential to communicate freely and who are able to
respond honestly to each other in the here and now. This also involves a respect
for and dynamic communication with the audience. Both Damo and Can refer to this
process as Instant Composing. Each concert is a unique event. There are never
any rehearsals. Mistakes are moments of opportunity. For the musician, this
process is in equal parts exciting and terrifying

thrashing on a trashed, distortion-fueled acoustic, to psychedelic lullabies;
and incorporating an expanding collection of "lo-budget videos" (really just
large ragged comic books drawn by Jeffrey, which are held up and shown to the
audience), as well as sporadic unlikely cover songs.
Plus he's promised lots of new material tonight yarrrr

Saturday 14th May,
Holy Trinity Church, Boar Lane,
£4/£3, 8.30
Bring your own booze - Cheap! STRICTLY no glass
bottles.
Pinkie Maclure and John Wills
Pinkie and John are a duo, whose latest album, Cat's Cradle, is a cocktail of dark folk, gothic blues,
rhymes and chants made by concertina, dulcimer, bodhran, melodeon, whispers, lyre, loops, guitar and
voices. Once the drummer in Loop, Wills was also a multi-instrumentalist in The Hair And Skin Trading
Company, while Maclure is no stranger to torch songs and avant cabaret styles. But the bluesy grounding of
her extraordinary voice keeps it free from histrionics, sliding effortlessly from a sensual
throatiness up to its higher register. I can't recommend them highly enough - they are fantastic, and
blew my socks off when I saw them last year.
Rosie Lewis
Rosie is from Gateshead, and has been quietly churning out amazing music for years. Her work has been
released by Kill Rock Stars, Slampt and Subjugation, and her versatility is reflected by that wide range of
labels. Her current solo work has evolved from Ani DiFranco style singer songwriting into a layered
improvisational style; using just her voice, her guitar and two sampler pedals, she makes massive
architectural pieces that are mesmerising and deeply moving. In the surroundings of the church, she should
be stunning.
McWatt
McWatt are a leeds based duo who swap between playing flute, double bass, accordion and concertina. They
play a very minimal classical sounding music with occasional brushes of folk-ness, but presented very
much in keeping with who they are - two punk rockers. It don't sound punk at all, but the music has a
directness and an energy that comes from that background. Sarah also plays in Like a Kind of
Matador, and has worked with Hood and Canvas in the past, and Seth used to play in bands like Snailracing,
Headache and Wooden Spoon.

This is to raise money for people coming over from Poland involved in the Free Fresco Academy. These were
involved in the mural taking up one of the walls in Oblong Resource Centre, in Burley. Last year Oblong
helped to co-ordinate an exchange project over in Poland to help design and make a mural with the Free
Fresco Academy, at a project near Gdansk.

An associate of Sonic Youth guitarist Thurston Moore, American saxophonist Shoup operates in "the liminal space between jazz,
improvisation and freeform blurt". His playing is thrillingly raucous, "combining an exacting attention to atonal timbral detail
with a singing, vocalised style and the kind of hyped energy levels of musicians like Pharaoh Sanders and Albert Ayler" (David Keenan).
His partner on this occasion is Leeds' own powerhouse drummer, Paul Hession.

Elephant Micah
Elephant Micah hails from New York. His songs demonstrate a crushing Beauty not usually present in the material of one so young. Come witness and
behold a minstrel of epic intensity! 'soft and spacious songs serve as a fitting
reminder that there's beauty to be found in even the most vast cornfields' (www.fakejazz.com)

'British entrant into the New Weird Americana movement brings some freeform Animal Collective folk sounds to Leeds.' americana UK 'Remarkable, like
a timeless classic or an obscure LP you discovered in a dusty second hand shop.'
(www.angryape.com)
McWatt
One of the finest duos since that chap and the duck Mcwatt travel their own
musical course and for the sake of airline security they packed their own bags
too. Some of the finest off-kilter folk influenced meadlings you'll hear
anywhere. 'McWatt plough a more experimental furrow, but one which is no less
pleasing to the ear. Use of double bass, flute and occasional accordian set this
duo apart from the bands you get used to seeing round these parts' (www.diskant.net)

Hike Club presents:
HOT SNAKES
So impressed with the UK from their recent tour in
Oct, the snakes are hitting our shores again. For
those who don't know Hot Snakes are a total powerhouse
of everything that is good about post-punk rock music
today. With original members of DRIVE LIKE JEHU and
ROCKET FROM THE CRYPT, and not a million miles from
either band, they will rock your pants.
DAN SARTAIN
Dan is a label mate of the Snakes (SWAMI). From
Birmingham, Alabama, he plays guitar, keyboard, sings
and does the whole lot himself. Has been described as
Straight-up, punky garage rock in the style of the
REAL KIDS, the LYRES, or the ORIGINAL SINS.
BUZZKILL
Blasting out the brass infused rock'n'roll which they
have become renowned for. Leeds' very own Buzzkill
will be taking the stage this evening. They'll
probably all be shitting their pants about playing
onstage with SPEEDO. I encourage heckles to make them
blush.
THE OUBLIETTE
Coming out of retirement for a one off show. The
Oubliette is Penny Brazzo who tonight will be
accompanied by some friends. If you haven't seen /
heard Penny before be prepared to expect a show of
sometimes melancholy, sometimes upbeat, stripped down
rock music with totally amazing vocals.
