Bigsby Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 I would also agree with Son Henry. There really isn't anybody else in Aberdeen quite as talented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest idol_wild Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 I've not been overly impressed with much of the artists/bands I've seen or heard in Aberdeen this year. No Pasaran and The Kitchen Cynics are the two artists I've seen the most - and they are both fantastic. But neither are especially new on the scene, so I know what to expect.The Jinx/Wasow have been great each time I've seen them, but I'm led to believe they have split up.Copy Haho are capable of crafting some brilliant songs, and are possibly the most talented unsigned band I have ever heard. But they sometimes let themselves down when they play in Aberdeen because you can tell they really can't be arsed playing in Aberdeen anymore. And who can blame them.I've not seen Lorenzo Snow Collective nearly enough times this year; same can be said of The Wee Kicks.There is, however, a plethora of local acts I have listened to on myspace but have yet to see live.
