Jon Allen and The Law @ The Lemon Tree - aberdeen-music

Chris_APA · 14-04-2009, 08:49

Two great (and cheap!) gigs at The Lemon Tree this weekend, showing two up-and-coming talents.

Jon Allen plus guests, Fri 17 April, doors 8.30pm
Earning rave reviews, plenty of radio air time and winning over the hearts of BBC Radio 2 with his single In Your Light, Jon's gravelly voice perfectly accompanies guitar rooted in the blues and English folk. He has also opened for Damien Rice, KT Tunstall and Jose Gonzalez and has toured with Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris. Definitely one to look out for over the coming year.

The Law plus guests, Sat 18 April, doors 8pm
The latest band to emmerge from the vibrant Dundee rock scene, The Law played a blinder on the headline stage at T in the Park last year and have recently completed their second nationwide tour with The View. They will be performing material from their forthcoming album A Measure of Wealth.

Purchase tickets for both shows here.

When is this? I've heard murmurs but haven't seen it advertised anywhere...

Not that I'll be going, I'm not really a fan of the Law. But if the gig was actually advertised somewhere, people who are interested would attend

Just checked the Lemon Tree website, and it is indeed Saturday. Someone had asked me about support slots for the Law gig and I think they said it was the 18th.

But I'd checked the Law myspace and the Lemon Tree website and all the usual gig listings etc and just couldn't see any evidence of it anywhere.

Hope they get more folk than when they played at Moshulu a couple of years back

They're gash so I doubt it.

I seen a poster in Oddbins on Union St though

They are the support...unless they are lying?

Vesuvian being gash is a matter of opinion.

As would the fact that the Law are gash which a lot of people think.

Vesuvian supporting The Law makes sense to me actually - very similar bands. I wouldn't say "gash" as such, but neither of them are really my thing.

Never noticed my post went after yours. Vesuvian are a good band...The Law on the other hand...
