Mekons

Event information

After touring on the back of their twisted non-retrospective Punk Rock in 2004, the Mekons picked up their instruments and lost themselves far beyond the beaten path, out in the wilds of the English countryside. They drank whisky all night, listened to the rocks and the Stones and tuned into strange old frequencies.
Natural (2007) is a celebration of ritual, paganism and sacrifice - both ancient and modern. The Mekons formed in Leeds, Yorkshire, England in 1977, so by any bugger's reckoning this must be their 33rd anniversary! Essentially the same band that recorded Mekons classics like Fear & Whiskey, Edge Of The World & Mekons Rock'n'Roll way back in the '80s and featuring Rico Bell, Sarah Corina, Lu Edmonds, Steve Goulding, Tom Greenhalgh, Susie Honeyman, Jon Langford & Sally Timms, the Mekons will perform a special one-off acoustic show at the Green Note featuring material from Natural.
