Hello there,
The return of PJ Harvey rates an obvious highlight this week (can the new album possibly match up to the stellar Let England Shake? It might yet...), but by no means the only one, with new output to enjoy as well from Witching Waves (I really ought to have learned by now whether they're named after the early 20th century ride at Luna Park on Coney Island, but haven't), Big Ups (plenty here for fans of the likes of Shellac to relish), Goon Sax (whipsmart Brisbane teenagers) and Anna Meredith (pounding, astonishing multi-instrumentalism).
The inclusion of Frankie Machine, Finnmark! and The 10p Mixes could hardly be more timely, each set to make an appearance at Macho Music Is Stupid & Sparklemotion's spring acoustic pop alldayer at the Rutland Arms, Sheffield tomorrow (Saturday, March 12th). Six pounds (or three for the unwaged) for a superb afternoon and evening's line-up which also includes the First Lady of indiepop Amelia Fletcher in her Caternary Wires guise is surely the best value entertainment you'll find anywhere this weekend. The bar downstairs has the plum porter back on, too, I'm given to understand.
