Black Daniel

Event information

Backstreets presents:
Black Daniel
Pope Joan
Alphabet backwards
The New Cut Gang

Now onto it's 19th outing, BACKSTREETS is a semi-regular night of music featuring some of London's best bands and DJs spinning classics. Great music to get drunk to on a Friday night!

BLACK DANIEL (London)
Black Daniel are firm Windmill live faves with a growing army of nutty dancers and celebrity fans (Eddie Argos, Lauren Laverne). Their new single 'Consciousness' has been released to a fanfare of critical acclaim. Their scuzz-rock-electro-garage is perfect for this Halloween party weekend.
'They bring a considerable humour, fun, and a sense of abandon to their distinguished, Primal Scream-esque rock shenanigans and their reputation is beginning to develop accordingly.' - Clash magazine

POPE JOAN (Brighton)
Falling somewhere between the kinetic playfulness of Les Savy Fav, quirky pop of early era XTC and the sonic spectrum of TV on the Radio, Pope Joan are a band making waves and at the cutting edge of British art-pop. They've shared the stage with Fools Gold, New Young Pony Club, Philadelphia Grand Jury and Danananankroyd.
'Brighton boys Pope Joan are a fantastic and quirky proposition indeed' - NME

ALPHABET BACKWARDS (Oxford)
Back with a new EP, Oxford's most exciting band are returning to London to present their new songs. They are still playing songs with an undeniable pop-rock quality, but this time they're armed with more experience and attitude. Probably some of the most poptastic, smile inducing tunes around.
'Top tune after top tune. Each is so addictively whistling-in-the-shower catchy they challenge you to perform a lobotomy on yourself in some vain attempt to remove them from your head.' - The Fly

THE NEW CUT GANG (South London)
One of South London's most exciting recent additions to the live scene, The New Cut Gang play dark rock and roll with a whole lot of attitude.
