The live with the lamp show at Indietracks was amazing! It was hard to miss The Pastels for this, but in the end I'm happy for my choice. and it was nice to meet two of the girls too!

Last night's lamp show was quite something...

They're playing in London next week - Friday Feb 21st - at Kings Place. It's an Arctic Circle promotion, part of the venue's Folk Union strand, and it's a right posh affair and no mistake. They're on in Hall Two, which is a lovely room, and they'll be playing new songs, and old favourites. Looking forward to hearing the new songs live!

They're doing the lamp show again, this time on a short tour.

8th October - Nottingham Contemporary
10th October - Victoria Baths, Manchester (sold out)
11th October - St John on Bethnal Green, London
12th October - Four Bars, Cardiff

If you haven't seen the lamp show before, it's quite something. A stageful of vintage lamps flashing and flickering in time to the music.



Tickets for the London show are here - https://www.wegottickets.com/event/287072 - we've sold about two thirds of the capacity now. Last year sold out and this one will too I reckon.

This show was spectacular. Best I've seen 'em.

[tompony]

Same here. The lamp show is better than I had dared to dream, and the new songs sound fantastic.
