Playfest interview

The nice people at BBC Introducing in Norfolk interviewed us after we played playfest in Quidenham (a great festival by the way)…I (Sam) decided to turn into a really bad thesaurus for the entire interview.

We then went to our driver/label guy/promoter associate Dudley All sorted Records’ wedding, where I took the most amazing photo of the others…(click on it to make it bigger)


Club Smith at some festivals

Holla,

Is that how you spell it? Club Smith are playing some festivals starting next week. AW SWEET! Here they are:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Live at Leeds – Saturday 30th April

This is a festival across the city of Leeds. It’s AWESOME.  We play the Faversham at 6pm. Plus two days later there is a Live at Leeds 5 a side tournament which sounds epic. We’re in a team made up of The Faversham promoters and a band called the Officers and All Sorted Records. Nice. We’ll lose. But the gig will be amazing!

Tickets £17.50 from www.liveatleeds.com

 

 

Liverpool Sound City – Friday 20th May

Alright Alright calm down. We’re only playing Liverpool’s own city festival.  We’re playing The Masque Ink on the Friday. Apparently Peter Hook is a key note speaker for this festival’s conference thing.  I once met Peter Hook at a songwriters thing for the BBC. I asked him what his favourite song he’d been involved in writing was, and he said he didn’t know, and I suggested World in Motion, and he didn’t like that. We ended on great terms though, he liked my music.

GREAT STORY.

Play Fest – Saturday 28th May – Norwich

Well our Norwich gig with the Pigeon Detectives was fairly insane so hoping this is just as good. It’s a new festival in Norwich featuring Futureheads, Frank Turner, Darwin Deez, Little Comets and more.  We’re on the main stage at 2pm.

Keighley Rock and Rail – Sunday 12th June

 

We are pretty excited about this gig. It’s a festival set across a railway route…the vintage one in Haworth. So you can come and have new age fun with a vintage feel! Oh yes. We’re actually playing on a train…a moving train. A moving train, with us playing on it. I have no idea how it will work but it sounds ridiculous and perfect.

Kendal Calling – Friday 29th July

Don’t need to say a lot about this apart from…we’re playing the same day as House of Pain. That’s all I need to say. How awesome. We’re playing the Calling out stage, late afternoon time, oh and it won small festival of the year last year. I kept on saying stuff didn’t I. Still typing now in fact.
