Belmont Picturehouse

The monthly acoustic night at the Belmont continues on the 3rd Sept with Fiona Keenan and Cathy Smitton. As always, it's free entry and it promises to be a good night. Hope to see you there!

Fiona Keenan - Far beyond the acoustic bracket, Fiona's music is coloured with alternate tunings, percussive fingerpicking and tenor and baritone guitar MySpace.com - Fiona Keenan - Aberdeen, UK - Acoustic / Folk / Alternative - www.myspace.com/fionakeenan

Who was the chap with all the beats in between acts?

The DJ last night was Chris, I'm not sure what his current alias is!

Thanks to Debutant, Ashley Park and The Awkwards and to everybody who came down

I won't be using the violin bow just yet - my technique needs a bit of work!

Are you going to play a Weezer cover? I've been bugging Ashley Park to slip in some more covers since hearing his awesome Twilight Sad rendition. It was a treat!

Becky

I'll be there....probably being upstaged by Debutant again.

Everybody thought you played really well on Sunday, Craig WTW

Looking forward to this.

BUMP. It's set to be a good een

Due to an act having to pull out of next Wednesday's gig, we are looking for someone to fill a slot on the 2nd July. Interested? Please PM me.

Duncan will be celloing both with myself and Kathryn......he's such a slut!

Hopefully His Majesty will be adding a touch of real musicianship, too.

You could say, he's making an exhibition of himself! Judging by how great the last belmont night went, it's going to be a really nice venue for this gig.

If anyone is better acquainted with Taping Hands To Faces then it should be mentioned that City Seemed Eager are the reincarnation due to losing a member!

Kathryn Sawers and Kitchen Cynics http://www.myspace.com/kitchencynics play in the Belmont Cafe for Art Exhibition Opening of the lovely Duncan Hart. Again, it's free to come down and the seats are comfy.

The monthly acoustic nights continue this Wed with:

City Seemed Eager http://www.myspace.com/cityseemedeager

Mark McCabe http://www.myspace.com/markandhisguitar

Craig Davidson http://www.myspace.com/craigdavidsonaberdeen

Please give them a listen and come down to check it out. If anyone fancies a gig at the Belmont, please come along to the gig and speak to a member of staff or send a pm

It's tomorrow and it's free!

Live music nights return to the Belmont Cinema Cafe/Bar on the first Wednesday of every month, come down to hear some of the finest in local talent for free. Kicks off next Wed with sets from No Pasaran and Ashley Park.

No Pasaran - Beautiful alternative-folk, intertwining lyrically romantic and honest, melancholic melodies. Think Bonnie 'Prince' Billy and King Creosote. MySpace.com - No Pasaran - Aberdeen, UK - Americana / Indie / Country - www.myspace.com/150655321

Ashley Park - Where comparisons can be drawn to the Beta Band and Elliott Smith, Ashley Park writes infectious chord progressions which make for melodically memorable folk-pop.

Hope to see you there!

Director: Dean Deblois Origin: Iceland Year: 2007

In July 2005, Sigur Rs left their homeland to tour their now iconic album Takk. A year later they returned, firmly established as one of the most influential bands on the planet, and immediately undertook a two-week free tour of Iceland. HEIMA, Icelandic for 'home' or homeland', is a stunning record of those two weeks featuring performances of songs from all four Sigur Rs albums, many radically re-worked, and two exclusive new numbers.
