Hello all! So next Thursday will see the wonderful L&F in Tunnels 2 for an evening of beard scratching, drum thumping, horn blowing, banjo twanging and damn good singing and shouting as Woodenbox With a Fistful of Fivers hit the L&F stage. With support now confirmed from the marvellously talented Kathryn Sawers and for the evening, pairing up, the beautiful Fiona Keenan and Sarah J!
Hope to see your wonderful faces there! Time for omlette and spicy wedges. Mmm…
Incase you didn’t know, Woodenbox With a Fistful of Fivers will be gracing the L&F stage in Tunnels 2 on Thursday 4th Feb.
This will be as part of their album launch tour around the UK, “Home and the Wildhunt” which is set to be released by Electric Honey, the label that brought you the likes of Belle & Sebastian, Biffy Clyro and Snow Patrol to name but only a few.
The lead single from the album, ‘Draw a Line’ has already garnered nationwide radio support from such luminaries as Gideon Coe, Vic Galloway, Steve Lamacq, Marc Riley and Radcliffe & Maconie. This band are one to watch this year for sure.
“One of best bands in Glasgow, they are also one of the few that know how to put on a show. Not one to forget.” – bluesbunny.com
Woodenbox With a Fistful of Fivers, whose superb Draw a Line (****, 4 Jan) is the pick of this month’s batch. An irresistible horn section, in the ilk of Calexico, perfect harmonies and gruff vocals of Ali Downer are more akin to the dustbowls of Arizona than the damp streets of Glasgow. An inspired track. – The Skinny
You’d be a fool to miss these trucker capped beardy folksters!
Hello Hello Hello.
I hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year filled with festive fun and games and drink and food. Yum Yum.
So with a New Year comes a New Year for LoSt & FoUnD too! How very exciting! The winter months at the L&F HQ proved a bit full on and well lets just say, personally a bit pants. But now i’m on the mend and it’s a new year and L&F has plans to come back with a bang! All we need is your wonderful loyal support!! Plans are being laid and gigs are being arranged and hopefully this year will be just as successful as last. Our first gig of the New Year will be in early February; details yet to be revealed.
Till then, here’s some photographs donated to us by the wonderful Chris Henderson (http://www.chrishendersonimages.co.uk). He has an exhibition up in Ki:lau just now! GO SEE IT!!!
A somewhat belated post as our dear Mark is now living in Paris, but it’s here now and that’s all that matters. As the catchy title of this post tells you, our good friend and L&F veteran moved to France a wee while ago. T0 see him off LoSt & FoUnD decided to put on a special little goodbye gig for him at our good friend Sarah’s gallery Project Slogan. The night was of course French themed with baguettes, crossiants, garlic, onions, french sing a longs, and of course, a real life snail race! Mark even recieved a top saying “J’aime Le Verge” (Loves the Cock). Pictures are still being sourced from the night so if you are reading this and have some, please do send me them at: lost.found@hotmail.co.uk. But until then, here are some pictures of the beautiful Mark McCabe and his wonderful friends…
WAYHEY for Mark McCabe! We miss you Mark. Come home and play.
So, it has been a wee whiley since anything was updated on here. So let’s start from where i last ended… Birthday party. What a hoot that was! Mark McCabe, Sarah J Tingle, and Nicky Cairney all played their beautiful music to our beautiful audience and we all got very drunk. Sarah played Pass the Parcel during her set, which was (as you could imagine) incredible! Nicky’s guitarist Mhairi won a duck ornament from it. Ha. Then came the raffle. For the raffle we made this…
Ohh yeahh… We made a giant party ring. TWO in fact. One to celebrate with and one to raffle off. It was AMAZING! Everyone had a piece and we all sang Happy Birthday and blew out a candle and it was just beautiful. The kind man who won the party ring had never been to L&F before and he was nice enough to share his ring with everyone. DOUBLE HELPINGS!! It was ace. PLUS! It actually tasted LIKE a Party Ring!!! Woop Woop!!!!
We had pictures from the past year scattered everywhere and it was all very fun and emotional and drunken! As every LoSt & FoUnD has been and still is…
Love L&F xx
On 18th May, LoSt & FoUnD played host to the welcomed return of Charlot Webster. With support from Sarah J Tingle, Kristoffer Morgan and Amber Wilson. Dinosaur themed and lot’s of booze, this is how it went dowwwwn…
This Easter was spent in Cellar 35 in the loving arms of: Amber Wilson, Acoustic Peace/Acoustic Anarchy, Kathy Shanks, Magna Anima, Amanda Aitken and Sarah J Tingle. Easter Eggs were won (along with a video of David Dickinson’s – Real Deal), boiled eggs were painted, the chicken or the egg debate was debated, guitars were played, songs were sung, poetry recieted and everyone was drunk. This is how it went down…
So back when L&F started i thought i would be really good and take lots of photos… but i either forgot my camera, my camera ran out of battery, or i got too drunk and lost my camera… it became apparant that the whole camera thing was not to be. So for the past few L&Fs we have had some photographers come in and take some amazing images. Sarah J Tingle, Levi Bunyan and Sam Brill. This proved more successful in comparison to me and my friends poor attempts with a Kodak disposable…
So enjoy a mish mash of photographs from some of the previous nights…
More to be uploaded soon!!!
I bet you could tell the difference between the professionals and my crappy £50 camera.
