Last week the First Tuesday Songwriting Group descended en masse upon the Spotlight Open Mic hosted by Alexa Hawksworth at Filthy’s Bar.
Rachel McClean, Matt Wood and Dan Wright (The Most Ugly Child) all did sets and Phil Grafton brought along fellow Sea Monster Eyes guitarist Geoff Carlin for a hilarious bout of crazy tunes and self-heckling.
We. Had. A. Blast. The event runs every week at is highly recommended.
Had a great time playing as a duo with Rachel McClean and sharing the bill with Shelter Point, Daudi Matsiko and others.
I was a bit apprehensive being an ‘Electrickle’ artist but the odd keyboard and sampler appeared so I didn’t end up being the ‘pork pie at the bar mitzvah’. And I had the best banoffee pie I’ve ever tasted!
Set list was
1) Fingernails
2) [Everything Is] Broken/Brittle Bones (Frazer Lowrie cover)
3) Sweet Baby Hand Grenade
4) Count Me Out
5) Advice Regarding The Treatment Of Bullet Wounds no.2 – no demo yet but check out the video here
6) Let’s Build An Airport
The Lazy Pineapple were on hand to take some lovely photos
A cheeky warm up for my appearance at Acoustickle. First gig with Rachel McClean on cello, vocals and acoustic guitar, and world premier of Bullet no.2. Shelter Point and Josh Wheatley were also on the bill.
1) Fingernails
