a rare saturday night at the tunnels for imp, but this line up will be rather fine:-

Pit er Pat (Thrill Jockey)
Quack Quack
&
Fulborn Teversham
are the mindblowing new group of Seb Rochford, the extraordinarily in-demand and prolific drummer/composer. The line-up also includes Pete Wareham (Acoustic Ladyland, Polar Bear) on saxophone, Nick Ramm (Cinematic Orchestra, Clown Revisted) on keyboards, and vocalist Alice Grant (also with Leafcutter John). The group pursues a more eclectic, less overtly jazz direction than Polar Bear, incorporating elements of electronica, Henry Cow-style prog and post punk. With clever balancing of cosmic and acoustic sounds, Fulborn Teversham offer up an intimate and thrilling futuristic improvisational post-jazz, post-punk chamber music. Their debut album, 'Count Herbert II' is available now from Pickled Egg.

anything Henry Cow-ish sounds great to me so I'm really disappointed I'll not be able to make this despite it being a Saturday night

Through the set there were parts that brought to mind Kraftwerk, Tortoise, Inspiral Carpets(???), Sunburned Hand Of The Man, Comets On Fire and some bizarre Arabic influenced post rock tune. And the occasional double drum kit action was immense. As if the drummer wasn't immense enough anyway. And the CD I bought is ace too.
Nice one IMP folks.

Yeah, great show - magic to see and hear extremely talented musicians using their skills in a very unflashy way where the overall sound was far more important to them than showing that they could do techincally difficult stuff as individuals (they did bring Acoustic Ladyland to mind in that respect), and the double drumming was indeed immense. I heartily recommend catching Quack Quack's next show.

I would have gone to this had Ratatat not been kicking out the jams in a friend's living room. I heard good things, though.

I hear Jenny tried to get them on the bill. Pity that didn't happen.

That would have been good, although, the house show was pretty special!
