Idol_Wild Promotions is delighted to present for you:

Meursault
www.myspace.com/meursaulta701

"the shape of folk to come"

It'd be all-too-easy and utterly unjust to class Meursault as "folktronica" because they're much fucking better than that. Meursault create a heart-rendering fushion of electronic beats and loops, banjo, ukelele, guitar, glockenspiel, and a voice to make you cry...out of all three eyes. These young men from Edinburgh have a brand spanking new album to launch up here. Buy it. It'll probably be the finest purchase you'll ever make.

Steven Dedalus
www.myspace.com/stevendedalususedtobeapopstar

Does anyone remember some Aberdeen pop band called Dedalus? Well Steven was the singer, which makes sense given his name. He was also one of the key writers, and this is his first return to Aberdeen in a performance capacity.

Debutant
www.myspace.com/musicbydebutant

Debutant is one man, a guitar, a capo, some effects pedals, and some songs. Some are instrumental, others are not. He tries to be dreamy and ambient, yet affecting and visceral. Is he a pretentious twat or just some half-assed loser who has nothing else to do? Or both? You decide.

This is going to be all kinds of awesome.

Anyone on this board who's not heard Meursault really needs to check them out. One of the best unsigned bands in the UK, without a doubt.

Plus, Phil's solo stuff is pretty sweet also.

See, this gig already has the Jim seal of approval. How can you not want to go?

The answer to the question is "both".

What time are Meursault likely to be on?

Not before 11pm. Other than that, I can't give precise times.

Cool. That would make attendance after Karine Polwart doable (depending on what time she finishes obviously).

Good man.

I'm trying to get Lazy Sheepdog on the bill too, but he seems to be elusive.

[idol_wild]

Pete McConville, formerly of The Jinx and Wasow, now known by the Lazy Sheepdog monicker, has been added to the line-up. He'll be on either before or after Steven Dedalus.

He's fucking ace, by the way.
