Gig Diary ......


THE PATRICK JAMES PEARSON BAND

ONE OF THE BEST LIVE BANDS IN THE COUNTRY
SET TO PLAY INTIMATE GIG AT THE STUDIO LOUNGE


After rocking Glastonbury Festival, an amazingly successful UK tour with Hard-Fi and a triumphant show at the world famous Shepherd’s Bush Empire, The Patrick James Pearson Band are back out on tour and they're coming to Totnes to play the Studio Lounge. Taking place on Friday 27th April, it’s another must-see gig from local DIY music promoters The Black Bird Collective!

With three sell-out shows under their wings, The Black Bird Collective are starting to make quite a name for themselves by putting on atmospheric nights of top quality up and coming artists and this promises to be another cracker.

The PJP Band sound has been linked via reviews to artists including The Stooges, At the Drive In, David Bowie, John Lennon and Les Savy Fav. Frontman Patrick is a big fan of all things Sub Pop and this “grunge” attitude is evident in the band’s live performances which are high on energy, conviction and attitude.

The PJP Band have been going down a storm on BBC 6 Music with Tom Robinson calling them “Astonishing for a 3 piece keyboard driven outfit, real grit and power, more power than most guitar bands”.

After a triumphant performance at Glastonbury 2011, the band were the ‘most shared’ artist on the BBC Glastonbury website home page for a good 36 hours - beating off competition from Ed Sheeran and Wu Tang Clan.

The PJP Band have been in the studio with record producer extraordinaire Pete Miles (The King Blues, Crazy Arm), working on a new 5 track EP - ‘Disciplines’ - which includes the single ‘I Am A Racer‘ due for release this month.

“Imagine Sufjan Stevens doing ungodly battle with Fugazi while Ziggy and Iggy look on, preening and punching” - Lee Trewhela, What’s On

With world domination just around the corner, it’s unlikely you’ll see this band live in a venue as intimate as the Studio Lounge again, so book tickets now to avoid disappointment!

Tickets are very limited and cost £4 in advance from The Studio Lounge on 01803 862267 or online at www.studioloungetotnes.com and www.wegottickets.com or £5 on the door.
