NOTE:

we are gutted to announce that this date has now been postponed...

Caribou's drummer has suffered a wrist injury (insert own joke) and cannot play the UK dates, meaning all have to be rescheduled.

CARIBOU (City Slang/Merge)

Having toured around the world playing his new long play Andorra, we are simply thrilled that Dan Snaith's Caribou is going to bring his FOUR piece Poptastic-Kraut-electro-'60's vocal influenced-visual roadshow back to Aberdeen on the last leg of the Andorra tour.

Caribou's events always bring forth glowing sunshine and smiles, just what everyone will want 2/3s the way through February. Come and see him in one of his favourite venues, where his new VISUALS will be guaranteed to "work a treat".

"All up it was the most engaging Caribou live show yet, and one that would have sounded even better in a slightly different setting".

Caribou coming to one of his favourite UK venues will certainly provide that......look out for a special performance and a very special night, because we also have...


ZIGGY CAMPBELL

Ziggy Campbell was brought up in Hawick. His father wasn't a butcher and he never had the brow for rugby so he wrote songs instead. He formed hi-tech lo-fi pop experimentalists FOUND in 2005. A label called FENCE RECORDS decided they liked FOUND and wanted to release their latest album. Johnny who runs FENCE said that Ziggy was "a truly unique voice and a songwriter with fresh ideas." These fresh ideas include developing a sideline solo project which is being unwrapped with staggering effect and never FOUND wanting.

Who will forget his Aberdeen solo debut supporting The Pictish Trail & The Fence Collective in late 2007? - so, so good we have got him back as the only support. Need we say any more........

aye some great reviews coming out of his Australia dates. Me thinks it could well be the
best one Mr Caribou has done in Aberdeen.

'Unique' is the word! You could potentially call them 'DIY'.

The spirt of Fence lives in the Chilli household.

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, they're pretty cool! The 'smile' smattering is a particularly nice touch!
