Nightingales and Ted Chippington

Event information

Born out of Birmingham's original punk group The Prefects, the Nightingales have stubbornly ploughed their own furrow in the field of alternative rock n roll for three decades. Described in John Robb's definitive ...post punk biography 'Death To Trad Rock' as "the misfits' misfits", the band has constantly garnered praise and respect from other artists and received endless glowing press reports, particularly for their live shows. Led by singer/lyricist Robert Lloyd ("The most underestimated songwriter of his generation" according to Ben Thompson in the Independent) the latest incarnation of the Nightingales - the best batch yet - release their new album 'No Love Lost' in April 2012 (Cooking Vinyl).

"The new album by Nightingales is brilliant. One of the fiercest and most exhilarating rock records I've heard in ages." Andrew Male, MOJO

Plus cult comedian Ted Chippington "a mixture of surrealism and insolent provocation and uncomprosmising boredom." - Stewart Lee.

'Blues Fan', new 10" record available from www.respectvinyl.co.uk and live shows.

Piranhas 3D, formerly Brighton's original punk band The Piranhas, join this line-up.
