In The City and Xfm are pleased to announce details of the annual ‘Best Of ITC’ gig. Coming to London to spread a little pre-Christmas cheer on behalf of the Manchester-based, internationally renowned music event will be four bands (one we can’t announce yet) that made their mark, raised eyebrows and generally impressed at ITC 2007. In addition Xfm will be broadcasting the gig live from Camden Barfly, but hey - always better to say you were actually there isn’t it?
The bands playing this year’s Best Of ITC are:
Elle s’appelle
Elle s’appelle is GCSE French for ‘she is called’. Elle s’appelle is also Andrew singing and playing bass, Lucy playing keys and singing and Owen playing drums. The noise they make has been described as sounding 'like Mates of State covering XTC and Billy Joel with occasional Freddie Mercury vocals'. Their debut single ‘Little Flame’ sold out in the first week on Moshi Moshi.
The Moths!
Drawing comparisons with the Human League, Wire, the Buzzcocks and early Adam and the Ants, The Moths! make poetic indie, new wave, post-punk pop with the emphasis on clever lyrics and instantly memorable guitar riffs. They have spent most of 2007 touring the UK, supporting bands including Foals, Good Shoes and The 1990s.
Sky Larkin
This year, youthful Leeds-spawned trio Sky Larkin have played to huge audiences at O2 Wireless and Leeds Festival and toured with the likes of The Gossip, Los Campesinos!, Howling Bells, ¡Forward, Russia! and Broken Social Scene. Add to that the procurement of a triumvirate of degrees, and it’s clear that education and rock have melded together beautifully.
Plus one more TBA…
Tickets are priced at £7 advance and are available here or by calling 0844 847 2424.
