An impressive array of guitar pedals provides an impressive arsenal of effects through which to showcase her unique, folk-inflected voice. The highlight emerges when Rose utilises tape delay to loop and intertwine her various vocal hooks into one glorious whole. Stunning stuff." - The Fly “Dark and sinister yet alluring and beautiful at the same time, how this music manages to combine such pretty and hideous sides is a mystery to me.” - www.joyzine.co.uk “Tonight’s solo artistry shows that when boiled down to the bare bones, Ms Kemp’s got something special going on regardless. Worth straying off the beaten track for, don’t let her progress pass you by. It’s got legs.” - Sounds XP “Rose Kemp begins proceedings, with what can only be described as a beautiful performance... those who’ve made the effort can feel very smug that they’ve got to see someone very special. If you haven’t heard of her, take PJ Harvey and give her even more gutsy depth, with a little more soul and you're kind of getting there.” - Gigwise Reknowned for the bare honesty of her songs and pure beauty of her performances, Rose Kemp has appeared at umpteen festivals, received airplay across three continents, and shared bills with such diverse acts as Gravenhurst, Seth Lakeman, King Creosote, The Subways, Malcolm Middleton, Alisdair Roberts and Holly Golightly. Once you’ve heard her you’ll never forget it, her songs stick in your soul and pulse in your brain like nothing else on earth. Rose Kemp will rock your World. The album A Hand Full of Hurricanes will be released on One Little Indian Records in September 2006. www.rosekemp.co.uk www.myspace.com/rosekemp www.indian.co.uk/rosekemp Joe Volk: “Autumnal hues, whispered vocals, and unrepentant picking muster up their own hazy sort of charm.” – Q Magazine A young artist unbotherd by conventional songwriting teachings, like Pearls Before Swine, Patty Waters and Vashti Bunyan before him. Joe invites you to enter a world both strange and beautiful and in its own way, his peculiarly English vocal has a quality unheard since the days of the early 70s Canterbury scene. Also the singer in experimental rock band Gonga, Volk’s subtle solo stylings are at once both challenging and accesible; pure aural bliss. His debut album Derwent Waters Saint is out now on Invada. “Doleful, electronica-toned sounds seem to drift up out of the listener's own subconscious, recalling Iron And Wine, Alexander Tucker, Nick Drake and the rest of the Cambridge pastoralists as they go - and wholly lovely with it.4 stars” – Time Out “Without wanting to sound disgustingly gushing, this is a genuinely beautiful album. The intricate guitar and intimate vocals compliment the slightly home-recorded feel the album has. 'You, Running' is a striking opener, 'Lanfranhis' gave me goose-bumps, 'Whole Pig, No Head' allowed the introduction of harmonica not to sound like a cliché. Volk's lyrics both confide and weave stories, creating a hazy, dark atmosphere. Simple arrangements, haunting vocals, and strong compositions make this a very mature debut album.” – Glasswerk www.joevolk.co.uk www.myspace.com/joevolk www.invada.co.uk 11th August Upstairs at the Labour Club, 97b Charles Street, Northampton, NN1 3BG Doors 8pm, Entry: Donation ffinfo: www.myspace.com/undereducatedmusic 13th August The Social, 23 Pelham Street, Nottingham, NG1 2ED Doors 8pm, Entry: £3 ffinfo: daniel@socialnottingham.co.uk 14th August The Howard, Howard Street, Sheffield, S1 Doors: 8pm, Entry: Free 15th August The Source, Atlas Works, Nelson St, Carlisle, CA2 5NB with Jaca Doors 8pm, Entry: £3 16th August The Love Apple, 34 Great Horton Road, Bradford, BD7 1AL Doors 8pm, Entry: £3 with Olly Deakin and Laura Groves ffinfo: www.myspace.com/blankgenerationdisco 17th August The Bowling Green, 3 Grafton Street, Manchester,M13 9NZ Doors: 8pm, Entry: £3 ffinfo: artvsindustry@yahoo.co.uk 18th August Holy Trinity Church, Boar Lane, Leeds, LS1 6HW *Note: due to Festival Commitments Joe Volk will not be playing this date* Doors: 8pm, Entry: tbc with 7 Hertz ffinfo: www.myspace.com/the7hertzband |

I noticed that entry to the Northampton gig is by donation. The easy way is giving money but I dare anyone to donate something else - a pint of blood, an artificial limb, a 1993 Take That annual for the christmas fete... |
