Things To Make And Do Presents: The ABC Club
Posted by Hazel on 02 February 2010
We’ve been keeping our eye on the burgeoning greatness of London-based promoter Things To Make And Do. Ran from the paper-strewn bedroom of one Nick Miller, TTMAD is proving itself the leader of the New Musical Renaissance. Previous shows with Stornoway, Cats in Paris, It Hugs Back, Bear Driver and (Abeano favourites) To My Boy have set the tone for the forthcoming brilliance of their next offering: The ABC Club.
Leeds-based 5-piece The ABC Club exist in the space between The Smiths and The Strokes, the understated vocal of Zandra Klievens offset by the taught energy of circling guitars and snapping rhythms. Their double A-side, Theiving Magpie/Friend Of Mine, sees a limited 500 vinyl run and a launch party at the Buffalo Baron on 25th February.
Til then, something to try on for size…
