Bugbear presents: Echoes Of The Bunnymen + Painted Bird + New Wife
The Water Rats, WC1X 8BZ , [Venue Details]When some pals got together to pay musical homage the remarkable work of Echo and the Bunnymen recently (seasoned players from excellent name bands though they were themselves, natch) little did they suspect the media whirlwind that would ensue…
When actual Bunnyman and six string psychedelicist supreme Will Sergeant stumbled upon said unassuming Preston show, and, suitably stunned, pronounced Echoes of the Bunnymen the Greatest Tribute Band In The World Ever…or something like that (with apologies to Bill Drummond.)
Let’s just say Will was very impressed and went on the BBC a couple of times to say so. Then Bunnymen bass ace Les Pattinson caught them too and followed suit…so there we have it, just like that, Echoes of the Bunnymen are the official, approved tribute band to Liverpool’s alternative Fab Four.
Now it must surely follow that Mac is lined up to attend the next one…So tonight is definitely not to be missed, for all fans of that fabulous Bunnymen body of work. Come On Down…
Painted Bird – excellent Siouxsie and the Banshees homage Painted Bird perform their stunning interpretation of this singular, incredible music.
New Wife – and an excellent opener for you tonight in the shape of these electro banger merchants…tapping into the awkward squad cool of early eighties game changers like The Normal, Fad Gadget and Thomas Leer.
