Show details:
Tune in, turn up and drop out as Nag Vladermersky and Hugh Dellar discuss their event at the ICA on 21st April commemorating the 40th anniversary of the 14-hour Technicolor Dream, a massive psychedelic happening which took place in Alexandra Palace, North London in April 1967. One of the most infamous acid freak-outs to ever take place in London, it was headlined by Pink Floyd and featured bands, poets, artists, freaks, hipsters, mods, mockers, and the in-crowd of the day. Members of psychedelic neo-medieval folk rock combo Circulus, who will be appearing at the event, will also be dropping in to play a couple of acoustic numbers.

... and with a criminally long 2 years and 96 days since their last appearance on the Hello GoodBye show, deXter Bentley welcomes back with open arms the prodigal band; Blanket. With an adeptly multi-instrumental line-up operating from twin bases in Brighton and London, Blanket's music might be expected to be a rather complex affair. In fact they specialise in quivering simplicity, with their sumptuously bearded members crafting a delicate lo-fi urban country backdrop to Vicky Steer's exquisitely melancholic and wistfully English voice.
'While the mattress of life is infested with bed bugs, Blanket are definitely keeping us warm!' - dB

This trio is at turns sparkly, green, tender and absurd, with frequent stops for chai and biscuits. Expect songs about broken equipment, broken hearts and our broken planet.   The Straw Bear Band performing LIVE @ deXter Be... (more) Added: 29 February 2008 The Straw Bear Band performing LIVE @ deXter Bentley's hello goodBye on Fri 22nd Feb 2008 (The Half Moon, Herne Hill, South London.) The Straw Bear Band (concept folk The Straw Bear Band lyrically mix folklore, myth, history and fiction. Musically they're just as eclectic. The sound ranging from delicate acoustic song to scratchy electronica, ending up like a Joe Meek production of Tim Buckley. Recently the sound has taken another turn, and live they create a kind of Medieval Krautrock. 'From The Sea To The Stars' is a story based album in ten short bursts. Of which Terrascope said '... this mix of modern technology and acoustic songs is realised with certainty and belief, creating a wonderfully textured free-flowing collection of songs that are damn near impossible to prize off the stereo'. The next project 'Eccentric Heart, An A-Z of British Eccentrics' is underway. Dom is also a musical collaborator with Steven Collins of The Owl Service and a partner in their Hobby Horse label.   Hamilton Yarns performing LIVE @ deXter Bentley's hello goodBye event at The Half Moon in Herne Hill, South London - Fri 22nd Feb 2008. Hamilton Yarns (freestyle pop)The Brighton based 'Free-folk' ensemble Hamilton Yarns' music is a sweeping canvas of seemingly spontaneous atmospherics concocted from harmonium, cornet, clarinet and flute, beautifully combined with wonky pop lyricism. Ambling nonchalantly through the themes of their songs are a motley crew of grubs, bugs, badgers and foxes, all hell bent on their mission to explore the subconscious, superstition and the weather. The band has recently released a double LP, beguilingly entitled 'Search for the Underwater Town' on their own HARK label.   Supreme Vagabond Craftsman performing LIVE at d... (more) Added: 29 February 2008 Supreme Vagabond Craftsman performing LIVE at deXter Bentley's hello goodBye on Fri 22nd Feb 2009 at The Half Moon in Herne Hill (South London) Supreme Vagabond Craftsman (grindcore folk) Supreme Vagabond Craftsman is Will Goddard - he is a founder member of musical collective Toah Dynamic, and along with Add N to X's Barry 7 and DJ Cherrystones a member of the band Prey. 'Just You Me And The Baby' the current SVC album features 13 songs of garage forecourt confrontations and ghost visits. Performed and recorded in the Analogue Catalogue Studio, 'Just You, Me And The Baby' features Supreme Vagabond Craftsman singing, shouting and playing most of the instruments, backed up by Earl Shilton on drumming duties, with a few professional cellists and viola players thrown in for good measure.   UNCLE RABBIT like their music freshly brewed, - straight out the pot, unrehearsed, unplanned, just going where it goes. They don't give two hoots whichever genre they belong to - you are just as likely to hear an off-kilter waltz, brief flights of free-form, smooth jazz, or punky, jagged dance rhythms - and that's just in the first number! Maybe it can all go so horribly wrong, a musical car crash, but flirting with disaster is Uncle Rabbit's preferred route to reaching that place where everything starts to go right. Noel Taylor provides clarinet and sax , Sebastian Sterkovicz plays guitar, with Steve Rushton on drums. Also performing on the same bill were; Agaskodo Teliverek / Shimmy Rivers & & Canal / Extradition Order. Uncle Rabbit's current CD '200 Used Cars' is available through their website; http://www.myspace.com/unclerabbit SHIMMY RIVERS AND AND CANAL. A constant struggle between instinct and intellect may well be the reason for the above average 'staff turnover' within the ranks of Shimmy Rivers and And Canal. However, perhaps it is this very ingredient that allows the band to produce some of the most resplendent, cantankerous and de-constructed pop music that one is ever likely to hear. AGASKODO TELIVEREK ( which means "the rearing s... (more) Added: 26 March 2008 AGASKODO TELIVEREK ( which means "the rearing stallions" in Hungarian) are a London based four piece band, with a passion for tight fitting football uniforms who produce a unique mashed-up style of guitar based music which they call "Psycho Goulash", which combines heavy guitar & keytar riffage with manic beats and schizoid vocals. Their line-up features the Hungarian guitar playing duo of Miki Kemecsi and Tamas Szabo, Japanese vocalist & keytar player Hiroe Takei, as well as recent addition ex-NOISETTES & occasional SEB ROCHFORD stand-in, Scots/ Nepalease drummer Pharoah Smeaton-Russell. AGASKODO have extensively toured the UK & Europe playing alongside acts like Lightning Bolt, Max Tundra, Trencher, DAT Politics and Les Georges Leningrad, and recently performed with Siouxsie Sioux at the BBC Electric Proms for the 2007 John Peel memorial concert. A new album from AGASKODO TELIVEREK is due for release on ADAADAT spring 2008. EXTRADITION ORDER are an audacious Northern tri... (more) Added: 26 March 2008 EXTRADITION ORDER are an audacious Northern trio, feet now flexed into the impotent belly of the capital, singing songs on the Peterloo Massacre, penetration, war and weightlessness. Part psychoblues, part technofolk, all trouble. Having bought off ebay the rights to the songs of an old and long-forgotten post Socialist Order based in Swansea, the band learnt of the songs' history and the former members connection to the Spanish Civil War. So the youngster took the old organisation's ideas, added their own dystopian bread and dripping and ran the flag of the Order up high once more. "Some of their songs sound like The Fall on laxatives and some sound like The Monks overdosing on Red Bull." - Captain Buzfuz
