Phil Wilson + Pocketbooks + The Postcards + Still Corners

Event information

Phil Wilson (June Brides)
Coming to London for a rare performance is Phil Wilson - once of C86 legends The June Brides. We're super excited that he's playing a Lostmusic night. In early 2007 Phil moved to the West Country and started recording (at home) again. He's been thrilling us with cover versions on his My Space ever since and new songs of his own are coming - with two new singles coming shortly (one released in Japan, the other in the USA on Slumberland Records). This performance will be one of the not to be missed gigs of 2008.

Pocketbooks
London's finest Indiepop band play their 2nd ever Lostmusic Presents gig and since their last Lostmusic show their line up has been fleshed out by new guitarist Ian (he of Spiral Scratch and The Cut Outs) and what a band they have become. The band were brought together through a shared love of tambourines, pianos, glockenspiels, jangly guitars and boy/girl harmonies. And as we've said on Indie-mp3 many times in the past few months - they've become a stunning live band.

The Postcards
Named in honour of Postcard Records of Scotland, The Postcards are a four-piece band based in Brockley, South London. Driven by a lack of ambition, laziness and an overwhelming determination to always enjoy themselves, they make very occasional live appearances around London. Their sets are fast and fun - whizzing through short, sharp blasts of bittersweet guitar-pop, only pausing to mop their brow and say hello.

Still Corners
Building dreamy noir-pop love songs like Alfred Hitchcock built suspense, Greenwich 4-piece the Still Corners create a kaliedoscope world around them, full of wintry melody, swirling organ, and big drums. Inspired by French film and sixties sound production and influenced by a range of artists from Serge Gainsbourg to Ennio Morricone as well as contemporaries the Cocteau Twins, Broadcast, and Camera Obscura, the Still Corners continue to delight audiences across London, incorporating a mixture of film projection with performance.
