Friday 18 April - Moira Stewart / Free Arfa

Moira Stewart take to the stage and throw balloons around, let off party poppers and fire silly string into the audience - they haven't played a note and I already like them. And they feature two former members of Mr Evil Breakfast, one of my favourite ever local bands - bonus! But the music is where the magic happens, and boy, is it magic.  

Waves of warm synths combine with the silliest keyboard melodies, and massive beats collide with indie guitar riffs - they're bonkers, brilliant and definitely my new favourite band. And if the real Moira Stewart objects to their name, may I suggest Bill Turnbull as an alternative? ..........................
