4pm-8pm
Over-18s only; FREE ENTRY
Starring...
LONEY, DEAR
Swede Emil Svanängen, plus friends, craft delicate indie-pop not so far removed from the delightful output of Belle & Sebastian and The Shins. Recently snapped up by Sub Pop in the US and a major label this side of the pond, this will be a rare opportunity to catch one of 2007’s brightest talents before they’re upgraded to larger venues.
And for free! Jeepers…

HOUSE OF BROTHERS
House Of Brothers is the solo – and sometimes not-so-solo – project of Andrew Jackson, formerly of acclaimed quirk-punks The Murder Of Rosa Luxemburg. His material is tender and heartfelt, and its unhurried pace is the polar opposite of the frenetic work of his previous group. With influences including Björk and Tom Waits, expect something rather magical.

DEREK MEINS
Derek used to be a member of Rough Trade-signed indie outfit Eastern Lane, heavily tipped and much acclaimed only a few years ago. Now embarking on a solo career, this Notting Hill performance is an opportunity to see and hear a talent that, as of this very moment, is simply growing and growing.

Entertainment before, between and after the acts comes courtesy of your friendly DiS DJs and Silver Rocket DJs. At the bar, expect to find some drinks offers - house beer and wine at cheap-ish prices, oh yes. Expect, also, to see at least one DiSser dancing foolishly to Loney, Dear after a Klug too many.

18+ at the NHAC? if so, would they give me special dispensation to bring my little bro with me?
-
yes it is

they don't seem to ID so you'd probably be good

errr...
...yes they DO ID.
My girlfriend - 26 at the time - was asked for some.

what time is loney, dear on?
?

Probably...
...around 6.30pm
BUT: it's looking likely to be busy, so my advice would be to arrive early, by 5pm latest. T'other acts are grand, too.

Such a shame
Eastern Lane had to stop...

Was a good gig
First chap was a bit random, too many shouting poem type things between songs.
Second chap/act House Of Brothers was better. Although he stopped his set early because of talky drinky types. Listening to his ep he had now, which is nice.
Loney, Dear was the reason I came, and they definitely didn't disappoint. Played for a lot longer than I was hoping too. Awesome live band, reminds me how much I love all of his albums.-
it was the shizzle wasn't it
and packed to the sweat drippy rafters.
and they covered something from God Hates Us All to
Mebbe this year Loney will finally tour with Slayer.
None of this Of Montreal or Arcade Fire nonsense
