merely rhysI've been having a lot of fun at #SwnFest but a strange highlight was this incredible lady recording video of Casual Smart in the Jacob's Antiques basement on a Nintendo DS.
A couple of long-overdue purchases after seeing #EnglishTeacher at #Swn recently.
One of my favourite gigs ever! The brilliant #Corella, who I only discovered at #Swn a few weeks ago, at Islington Academy. They tore it up! My fave new band by far.
#Swn is over and I had a blast. My highlights:
Banshi — the coolest band in #Cardiff imho, with an uncharacteristically emotional set
Corella — possibly my favourite new indie band
Butch Kassidy — the best local post-rock I've seen since False Hope for the Savage
Trout — awesome, unfathomably cool grungecore
Minas — the most fun raprock band I've ever seen
But seriously, Banshi is life now.
This is excellent. Sat on the floor of a church drinking wine and listening to some beautiful music courtesy of Elanor Moss.
Day three of #SwnFest and I am keenly aware that I am very old.
