Andy Mulhern Posted October 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Vocoustics and Kabuki Presents:Chris T-T and the Hoodrats + Mark McCabe and the Tearoom PosseSNAFU (1 Union Street, Aberdeen, AB11 5BU. 01224 596111)Sunday 19th October5, 8pmChris T-T.comMySpace.com - Chris T-T - Brighton/London - Indie / Alternative / Folk - www.myspace.com/christtukMySpace.com - Mark McCabe (and the tearoom posse!) - Aberdeen, UK - Folk / Lyrical / Comedy - www.myspace.com/markandhisguitarAcclaimed as the clearest voice of discontent in todays music industry, Chris T-T is one of the most consistent, vividly outspoken and fearless songwriters Britain has produced in the last 10 years. He mixes riffing rock with indie-folk and experimental psychedelia to produce songs with deep purpose which are as pop-catchy as they are raw and fiercely literate. A rabble rousing, bearded, unsung genius!So far: 5 full-length albums, 2 mini-lps, a pile of 7" singles/eps and a live cd. Latest is Capital which was released in Feb 2008 (Xtra Mile Recording) and prior to that 9 Red Songs folkprotest mini-lp (2005) and This Gun Is Not A Gun EP (2007). We Are the King of England is released as download on Monday 17th October.His new band is made up of Jenny Macro (from Stuffy and the Fuses) on guitar/vocals, Johny Lamb (from Thirty Pounds of Bone) on bass/vocals and Ben Murray (from La Frange) on drums. club snafu HomeMySpace.com - Vocoustics Promotions - Aberdeen, UK - Alternative / Acoustic / Folk - www.myspace.com/vocoustics MySpace.com - Kabuki Promotions - 29 - Male - Aberdeen, UK - www.myspace.com/kabukipromotions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Mulhern Posted October 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 bump for sundayand just a couple of things typed/said about T-T..... :up:Steve Lamacq - Radio 2Chris T-T is a man that we would trust with our lives. If he was standing for Mayor of London, Id vote for him. The FlyT-T puts the lyrical boot in with righteous wit and scathing laser-sighted accuracy. Listen to Chris T-T, he talks sense.IsThisMusic.com (A-Z review)Another winner from Chris T-T, one of the finest and consistent songwriters this country has seen this century.Drowned In Sound (8/10 A-Z review)All the soaring altitude of an anthem but the instability of an emotional drunk by 8pm on a Friday. A fine example of immersive storytelling through indie-rock, even if its probably not for bedtime. Alex Duncalf - Bacon Music (4.7/5)Yet again, Chris T-T has delivered another musical achievement. It would seem Chris has his own genre Classic Rock magazine (!)An inspired coalition of contemporary production values, vintage psych scope, parochial Brit whimsy, driving krautrock tenacity and casual genius.Mark Edwards - Sunday Times (****)The 21st century Ray Davies: a witty inciteful observer of the bittersweet, and sometimes just bitter, truths about the city. What makes Capital different is a new aggression in the music more personal tracks offer a welcome counterpoint to the bigger themes.NMEThankfully theres more to his game than state-the-obvious pessimism. Think Brendan Benson gone psychedelicJohn Aizlewood - Q magazine (****)The turbo-charged A-Z is as grandiose as The Killers, the suave This Gun Is Not A Gun and the punky (We Are) The King Of England spit hummable fire, while closer 4am elegantly distils everything that has already passed.Stephen Brolan - The FlyThank fuck then for the real thing, Chris T-T, whose latest offering brandishes his poet laureate credentials. Sardonic, side-swiping humour, hypnotic Psychedelic Fur-yness and Television-like rhythmic pummelling. Climb onboard and allow Chris T-T show you the TRUE England.Sunday TimesBritish pops street-poet laureate and unsung genius returns.Kirk Burton - IsThisMusic.com (****)Chris T-T is one of the best British songwriters of the last 10 years demonstrates his ability to write great three minute pop songs while still having something to say.The Sun (3.5/5 - a hot track of the week)niftyThe SkinnyScythes through the bones of contemporary culture.Frank Turner, interviewed in Neu MagazineThe way that Chris T-T has been treated by the folk community is monstrous to my mind because I think that hes the best folk singer this country has produced in 50 years.
