Band of Holy Joy + Glaxo Babies
The Water Rats, WC1X 8BZ , [Venue Details]Band Of Holy Joy go right back to their electro soundscape origins to reinterpret More Favourite Fairytales, their first ever cassette release, which was issued by the Pleasantly Surprised label in 1984.
That cassette and others from that time were released as a box set by the Vinyl on Demand label and the band are playing this set of songs at the VOD festival. The Water Rats will be the first time to hear these songs for many years.
Special Guests – Glaxo Babies
In the annals of Bristol music history Glaxo Babies could have a book and a zone of greatness all of their own. Singles and EP’s such as ‘Christine Keeler’ and ‘This Is Your Life’, along with the seminal ‘Avon Calling’ compilation John Peel recorded session version of ‘It’s Irrational’, stormed the zeitgeist of late 70’s, early 80’s UK post punk.
