andylemontree Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Camera Obscuraplus supportFriday 30th MarchDoors Open 9pm/Support 9.30pm9 (6 concessions and Regulars)Camera Obscura formed in Glasgow in 1996, releasing a slew of singles leading up to their debut album Biggest Bluest Hi-Fi in 2001. The band slowly built up a loyal following, including John Peel, who championed the band from their earliest days. Under Achievers Please Try Harder followed in 2003 and last year saw the release of Lets Get Out Of This Country to huge acclaim. Influenced by a wide variety of heroes - from Jimmy Webb to Lloyd Cole, from Connie Francis to Skeeter Davis, from the Supremes to David Lynch - lead singer/songwriter Traceyanne Campell and crew assembled a remarkable batch of songs. Decidely upbeat, optimistic and catchy at times while also beautifully romantic, quiet and reflective at others.www.camera-obscura.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Insurrection Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Ah Camera Obscura. Drummer Lee Thomson was once a member of Aberdeen punks Bloodshot was he not? That is before relocating to Glasgow. If so, then I know the man, though should say not very well. Not spoken in almost seven years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
