Lucky Soul
The School, The Lodger, How Does It Feel To Be Loved (DJ set) and Pocketbooks (DJ set)
PIC ‘N’ MIXX PRESENTS… LUCKY SOUL + THE SCHOOL + THE LODGER
DJs! How Does It Feel To Be Loved + Pocketbooks
Tickets: http://www.wegottickets.com/event/86890
♦ LUCKY SOUL http://www.myspace.com/luckysoulluckysoul
…In an alternate universe where Cowellism doesn’t rule (and ruin) everything it surveys, that bubble is already planet-sized and Lucky Soul are already huge. With A Coming Of Age, these pop dreamers have made the record which deserves to make that a reality. (Simon Price)
Independent on Sunday: “The sound of a band switching from black-and-white to colour. One of the albums of the year, hands down”
Metro: “A romantically British institution”
The Word: “Just pure uncut delight, and we can’t stop playing this… “
Pitchfork: “Confident song craft, teenager-sized emotion, and overall pop immediacy”
Popjustice: “a high quality pop troupe”
♦ THE SCHOOL http://www.myspace.com/theschoolband
For years, fans of the best pop have waited anxiously for that group that was going to occupy the space between The Pipettes and Belle & Sebastian, heirs of the best pop from the sixties, and the best Scottish pop. In The School, they’ll find more gems than a jewellery store.
Pitchfork: “Swaying and winsome with some of the Phil Spector lushness of Lucky Soul, the Belle & Sebastian-style modesty of Camera Obscura, and the airy, girl-group vocals of both.”
***Molly Ringwald, speaking about ‘All I Wanna Do’: “This song just makes me feel happy. It’s very young. You just want to hold hands with someone while you listen to it.”
***Everett True: “mightily lovable”
(BBC 6Music Album Of The Week for Loveless Unbeliever)
♦ THE LODGER http://www.myspace.com/thelodgerleeds
Beginning in a Leeds bedsit in 2004 as Ben Siddall’s solo project, The Lodger’s indiepop is truly heartbreaking. They are now three albums in, and have toured the UK, Europe, Japan and the USA.
Coke Machine Glow: “songs in which happiness and anxiety scuffle in an ostensibly cartoonish flurry of dust and keypad squawk, but somehow, and quite unexpectedly, leave real bruises when the clouds part”
Pitchfork: “(they bring) refreshing, hook-filled simplicity to the Orange Juice blend of disco and sensitive jangle-pop”
