rcalder82 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 AGP presentsTHURSDAY 23 JULY @ TUNNELSBE A FAMILIAR Just as their name asks, so did the colorful concoction Be A Familiarspring into existence through familiarity. The vibrancy that you willhear in the sound of their music, stems from the immediate closenessfound in a group of seven musicians stirred together, in eagerness, totell their individual tales. Founding members Chris Pashley and CallumMorrison set out with a clear vision of what Be A Familiar would gentlygrow into: a band with a very powerful yet modest self-awareness,which has generated an exuberance in their music, [The Skinny] thatpulls in an eclectic fan base. The complete line up was formed over timeand it is the diversity of each Familiar which allows for their enricheddepth of sound and overwhelming stage presence.The band were signed to a two single deal with Broken Friend Recordsin early 2008 before they had ever performed live and after their firstperformance Be A Familiar relentlessly gained momentum. By theirthird show and with wide-eyed hope they sprung through the T-Breakheat with their surprisingly tight and energetic sound [skinny]winning a place on the T-Break stage at T in the Park 2008. Since thenthey have continuously demolished the boundaries set for a seven-pieceorchestral rock/pop band in its tender youth. The summer of 2008 sawthe band play Rockness, T in the Park and Go North as well as touringScotland, London and Ireland. Be A Familiar have played persistently,including a live performance on BBC Radio 1 with Vic Galloway, whoclaimed that the band were ones to watch out for in 2009! Not onlywas their first single Pain in the Heart received as a future classic!(Jim Gellatly) but their second split single with German band GreenApple Sea sent them to Germany where the reception and high demandwas astounding.Summer 2009 sees the band recording the beginnings of their mini-albumwith Tony Doogan and the release of their third single YoudMake a Great Ghost, (a split single with Glenrothes band Tango in theAttic). Be A Familiars live shows are energetic, passionateperformances which will leave audience haunted by authentic Scottishtones, touched by the sincerity of the lyrics and their minds stampedwith an understated cacophony of goodness (Dicelines) which thebands ever?present enthusiasm and playful demeanor delivers.Support from I SEE SHAPES and more tbc soonTickets 5 from One Up and Welcome to TicketWeb! and this show is part of our 2 for 1 mix n match deal at MySpace.com - AGP(Next show: THE MUSCLE CLUB - July 1st@Tunnels) - 27 - Male - UK - www.myspace.com/aberdeengigpromotionsx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
