The lineup for Tuesday 16th September, 2008 at Madame Jojo's, London is a White Heat classic.
Headlined by the enchanting Jonquil and fellow Oxford band This Town Needs Guns, this is a night out not to be missed! Acts also include Three Trapped Tigers and White Heat Djs Matty and Olly.
More about the bands:
An eclectic, experimental Oxford sextet.
"... a masterclass in how to purvey experimentalism without foregoing accessibility, and for that alone, Jonquil need to become huge" - Clash
"The times I've seen Jonquil play live, it's been in tiny, intimate venues in Oxford and they've inspired these mass singalongs each time ... it's pretty special to watch" - Yannis Philippakis (Foals)
"A host of beautiful Beirut-gone-English folk songs" - NME
"Beautiful weirdness" - Metro
"... a tranquil and soothing listen with moments of euphoric chanting and the wonderful lapping of shifting harmonies and textures, and ever present thrill" - Notion

Describing themselves as 'new guerilla folk' This Town Needs Guns specialise in intricate indie-rock that can recall everything from Seafood at their dynamic best to the grandiose noise mongering of Mogwai. Their album 'Animals' is out early October.
