Picked up the Az-i Cool EP for free in One-Up downstairs today. It sounds great guys, really enjoying it!
Gutted I won't be along tonight.
Another person from the Aberdeen Music unvierse who rocks! Cheers for the feedback.
Away to put a couple rough cuts of new tracks up on the Myspazz...

To ca_gere - you rock!
We are a bit miffed with the billing, but Copy Haho were nice enough to invite us to play so we're not too miffed. As long as the ol chalk board on the night doesn't list us as 'Kuda' then all is good. Incidentally Kuda has changed his stage name - more on that later.
Early plug - we've got copies of our five-track EP to shift!
Work is a drag today as I just can't wait for tonight - going to be mad good.
-
should it be ok to get tickets at the door?
Shouldn't be a problem but as always we recommend advance booking to avoid disappointment!
-
I'm so excited about playing on Friday night, which feels strange.
Feel that one. Really looking forward to the post-European tour, post-album recording Copy Haho.
Oh, and droppin some quality choons we've been cooking up in the lab this summer

Go on, Son Henry, very much deserved!
-
Can't have this falling down the pecking order! Set to be an epic show!
-
Stan Tracey's going to be brilliant, total icon of jazz.
Also worth a mention are Brass Jaw - a really inventive four piece who have done away with the traditional rhythm section and performing entirely on brass.
-
Courtney Pine was incredible last night, set the bar high for the rest of the festival!
Niki King tonight will be something very special, definitely one for those who prefer the more mellow, vocal-led jazz.
-
Ace! Well lookin forward to the new Brew Dog Marischal Bar!

Graeme Stephen's new Quartet are playing this Saturday lunchtime in The Lemon Tree Lounge; doors open 12pm and they should be on approx 12.30pm.
To book a table phone 01224 337688 - I would recommend doing so as we're expecting it to be pretty busy this weekend.

Kicks off on Thursday with the phenomenal Courtney Pine. If you've never seen this icon of jazz I highly recommend it!

you're not wrong
Same script as last time we opened for the fantastic Copy Haho - Kuda get's all the props! Our name is A'Zi Cool; we're a four piece hip-hop crew from Aberdeen. deek the Myspazz for a wee flavour of what we're about.

I really wanna see New York Dolls. Will I be able to pay at the door? I'm not too familiar with The Lemon Tree.
Seconding Mr Milne, tickets are fair flying out the door. Ordinarily it isn't a problem to buy your tickets on the night, but for gigs like this one you need to snap them up in advance.
You can get them at our box office at HMT and the Music Hall, over the phone on 01224 641122 or online here.

Set to be a really interesting night of experimental/classical music, plus only 5.50 if you're under 26!

Connie Lush is widely recognised as one of the finest blues singers that the United Kingdom has ever produced.
That indisputable fact was acknowledged when she was voted Best UK Female Vocalist by readers of Blues In Britain for 5 separate years, earning a richly deserved place in the Gallery of the Greats.
She is also increasingly recognised on the continent, particularly in France, where she was honoured in the French Blues Trophies awards as European Singer of the Year for 2002. There are no separate awards for male & female singers in the European category, so Connie defeated all challengers.

Flamboyant, brassy and irresistibly euphoric - the riotous live shows of Edinburghs Orkestra del Sol are fast gaining them notoriety as Scotlands answer to the celebratory wedding bands of Eastern Europe. Blending the best of brass with the swinging sounds of New Orleans, the rolling rhythms of the Middle East or the bouncing beats of UK ska, they pack a punch and make mincemeat of musical categories. The band site influences including Balkan big names like Boban Markovic Orkestar, Mahala Rai Banda and Fanfare Ciocarlia, but also pay homage to Calypso and Mento, Brazilian Forro and Columbian Porro, plus The Specials, Tom Ze, Duke Ellington, Stephane Grapelli and Tom Waits.
Magnificent The Independent
Utterly captivating Songlines

Blackheart are Chrissy Mostyn and Rick Pilkington. They are widely regarded as the fastest rising new stars of the British acoustic scene and have had their unique style of music christened 'Urban Folk' by the UK music press.
Combining the sound of traditional acoustic folk instruments with a totally modern approach to their songwriting, they have a unique style of beautifully crafted, instantly memorable songs, which take their audiences on an emotional roller-coaster ride from sadness and sensitivity to the most energetic rocking folk that has audiences on their feet.

Thought we'd try something a wee bit different down at The Lemon Tree.
23 year old cellist Peter Gregson is a pioneer of contemporary music and ambassador of a new generation of musicians for whom the use of new technologies is increasingly a matter of course.
Ever had an electric sensor cello suit on? Or performed at a concert with a live comment feed displayed on the wall? Or composed musical Twitter poems? Cellist Peter Gregson has done all of it of his own accord and is being acclaimed for it not only by classical sector, but also by the media and technology world. His pioneering work in refreshing the classical genre earned him the prestigious Glenfiddich Spirit of Scotland award for music in November 2008 as well as membership to the Courvoisier Future 500. In January 2010 Peter was selected Creative in Residence (Music) by the Hospital Club London for 2010/2011.
Click here to check out his performance at Twitter HQ in 2009.

Steeped in Americana and based around the banjo duo of Deborah Arnott and Clare-Louise Neilson, Blueflint subtly intertwines the three-finger picking and clawhammer styles of banjo traditions to accompany striking vocals and harmonies on a set of original songs. This unique sound is enhanced by a talented and versatile line up of musicians playing fiddle, double bass and drums, forming an atmospheric, rich and engrossing performance.
