Sons of Noel and Adrian and Peggy Sue play free gig this Sunday
This Sunday’s free Bandstand Busk will be a particularly special one, so far as FFS are concerned, featuring as it will two of our very favourite bands. Troubador and -esses Peggy Sue, and bigger-than-a-football team Sons of Noel and Adrian will be appearing at Northampton Square Bandstand from 3pm on Sunday, 6th September.
Album: Theoretical Girl – Divided
When I looked up Theoretical Girl, (AKA Amy Turnridge), on wikipedia they described her music as Chamber pop- an odd explanation, but probably the most accurate! My description would go more like this: ‘50’s style romantic pop mixed with folk, electro and angst’. On the whole the album is sweet and full of catchy chorus’ that come off as innocent pop. However, after a closer listen you realise Amy isn’t all sweetness and light. When you really listen to the lyrics you hear lines such as “You’re the biggest mistake I ever made”…. “I should have loved you more”….. and “My love is unrequited” – suddenly she isn’t this little girl with cute ditties and romantic tales- she’s you and me.

Theoretical Girl
We Say: Theoretical Girl makes electro-folk-pop which never fails to delight her audience. They Say: “….goth-pop genius….” – NME “…lovely…” – NEU MAGAZINE “…stone cold brilliant….” – NME “this is a recipe for truly amazing, joyous and heavenly simplistic music.”…
