THURSDAY 9TH JULY.
DHC V LIMBO NIGHT!
@ SNAFU
9pm DOORS (special early opening!)
£3.00
Dirty Hearts Club on the 9th July sees a one off collaborative night at Snafu with a combination of two of Scotland’s best club nights for showcasing new music coming together!
Aberdeen’s own Dirty Hearts Club combines forces with the fantastic Edinburgh based Limbo night. Limbo is the Voodoo Room’s in Edinburgh’s weekly Thursday event which is now a household name in the capital city. Andy and David’s carefully crafted nights are now legendary for mixing up and coming bands, along with The Black Spring DJs, aka Hobbes (also one half of Trouble DJs, getintotrouble.com) and DC, DJing at at the night too.
Since November 2007, Limbo has been staging the most exciting live acts on the circuit at Edinburgh's Voodoo Rooms, working with breaking Scottish bands such as Frightened Rabbit, Broken Records, We Were Promised Jetpacks, XVECTORS, Zoey Van Goey, Punch & The Apostles, Fangs, Unicorn Kid, Sparrow & The Workshop, Dollskabeat, Meursault, Come On Gang! and Found, plus up-and-coming touring outfits such as Modernaire, Micachu And The Shapes, Marina And The Diamonds, The Chap, Colourmusic, S.C.U.M. and Joe Gideon & The Shark.
The cream of the crop from the tail end of last year's Limbo was recently collected on a CD of top notch live recordings from the club, called Limbo Live Volume 1. Like DHC, Limbos focus is on creating great line ups with bands of different styles that compliment each other and work together make an ace night!
So for this night we have:
MEURSAULT Meursault on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads
The shape of folk to come - Meursault are a blisteringly evocative electro-folk collective from Edinburgh.
"One of Scotland's records of the year" - The Skinny
"An unassuming triumph of glum-pussed Scottish charm" - Drowned in Sound
HAIGHT ASHBURY Haight-Ashbury on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads
Glasgow based melodic folk rock with a decidedly 60s CSNY / Love / Bat for Lashes vibe!
THE LITTLE KICKS THE LITTLE KICKS on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads
Fresh from releasing debut album “Boxing Clever” recently, this will be the last chance to see the band locally for quite a while….
DEBUTANT Debutant on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads
A combination of simple, dreamy songs augmented by a build-up of shimmering atmospheres.
"Debutant's music ignores genres altogether, sounding something like what would happen if Mark Kozelek and Kevin Shields had an afternoon, a spare room and a multitude of ideas. Definitely worth checking out live" isthismusic?
