On Repeat: Here We Go Magic – Fangela
Here We Go Magic have produced a glorious piece of electro-tinged psychedelic pop and it’s called ‘Fangella’. Luke Temple and his band of Brooklynites a.k.a. Here We Go Magic were a band that kept on eluding me at SXSW 2009. Thankfully they’ve now got an album out through Western Vinyl and are soon in the UK for a string of dates. For Fans Of: Animal Collective, Miracle Fortress, Django Django. // more

Vadoinmessico @ The Slaughtered Lamb, Aug 13th.
What? The Local presents: Eoin O’Ruainigh, Vadoinmessico & Alma NoFear. Vadoinmessico means I’m going to Mexico’ in Italian and befits an international five-piece fronted by the talented Giorgio Poti who has one of the most refreshing voices we’ve heard in a while. A kind of alternative, upbeat folk akin to a stripped down Arcade Fire perhaps.
