Fri Sep 14th: One Man Team Dance, Theo, Chairs Missing
September 4, 2012
The Nag’s Head. Free entry as usual.
This night will have an alt electronica vibe with casios, loop pedals and vintage drum kits.
One Man Team Dance are a two piece from High Wycombe, whose energetic
live show has earned them fans throughout the UK, USA and Europe. Their
frantic drumming and insane casio keyboard hooks make for something
special and unique indeed. Not to be missed! Go listen to them here:

Theo (Loops of Death) is a one man band from London and puts on an
astonishing performance. His soundcloud bio says “Taut, chugging guitar
loops layer up with frenetic tapping patterns that interweave in
spiralling complexity before near sub-atomically precise, powerhouse
drumming clatters and builds each song into juggernaut of riffs and
rhythms. To achieve something like this recorded is one thing, but to
see Theo perform live is quite another as each song blurs into the next
and the dazzling guitar and drum acrobatics leave jaws sagging on the
faces of all who bear witness to the talent on offer. “
Having seen Theo play, I can say that’s a pretty accurate description!

Local support comes in the form of Ben Sammon’s alt electronica
project Chairs Missing. Eclectically influenced, Ben’s tracks are an
impressive mix of dubstep, seapunk, reggae and drum and bass.
Should be a great night!
