I've been trying to get this mod-pop Birmingham trio down to Southampton for a while now. Dates have been loosely thrown back and forth until we landed on February 27th. This show will include New Street Adventure along with ex On Offs front man, Danny Connors, who will be playing with his new outfit - Danny Connors and the Ladders.
New Street Adventure make it into today's download with a witty bubble of social commentary aptly named - 'Fate Britain'. This is one of the only New Street songs that isn't auto biographical, it's a blitz into the imagination of New Street pioneer and near-genius songwriter, Nick Corbin. It tells a tale of a young man who runs into various social obstacles on his journey through the hardships of our modern Britain. Binge drinking, lippy street dwelling ASBO urchins and life-sucking Brick Lane scensters all play their part in Nick's musical escapade through this humour-riddled tale of a diminishing nation plagued by ignorance and obsessed with appearance.
Guitarist / singer and songwriter, Nick, is one fucking clever guy, so clever in fact that I can see his band making another entry in this download feature simply so people can begin to realise the song writing potential and overwhelmingly spot-on observations of this Northern Soul obsessed young man.
