Expect; A stripped down live session from two members of the long standing post-punk / cow-punk legends The Mekons. Featuring, Sally Timms (voice and shruti box) and Susie Honeyman (voice, violin and piano) performing under the flexible moniker Mini-Mekons, all ahead of a full band appearance soon due to take place here in London at The Garage in Highbury on Friday 23rd October. The original incarnation of The Mekons first sprang to life back at the height of the punk movement in 1976, formed as an art collective based in Leeds, to this day they remain one of the most prolific groups from that period and are as active and as vital as ever a full 50 years further down the line, with the band’s finely whet cutting edge as intact and razor sharp as ever.
Also, solo artist Kowa Axis (aka James Barry) performs a debut live session on the program with his electric guitar and a sea of effects pedals to hand (and foot). Expect a densely absorbent, improvised wall of noise, closely informed by an initial appreciation of ‘metal’ music so enjoyed in his youth.
