MIX-UP 05.07.12: NOON - WOLFSCARERS - HEY CARRIANNE


NOON

Eating out hearts since 1928 and back by popular demand, Noon are a super-cocktail of space-boogie blues-soul. They will pound their awesomeness into your conscious and unconscious minds. They have shared stages with the likes of David 'Honeyboy' Edwards and Dr. John Wether. With the jungle-disco drums of David Schelctreimen, the nu battle-jazz guitar of Ellis Davies or the cyber-soul harmonica and vocals of Rik Warren, there is something about this band that gets feet moving and minds exploding.

HEY
 CARRIANNE (Solo Set)

Fresh from a tidy slot supporting James Vincent McMorrow at this year’s Liverpool Sound City festival, Hey Carrianne is definitely one to keep your eyes on this year.

Carrianne Hayden, singer / songwriter of Hey Carrianne plays a solo set for us at Mix-Up. Weaving frank storytelling and beautiful melodic ramblings with memorable guitar motifs, she creates a brand of pop that's sugared with Folk, Indie and Blues. With too many influences to list, try to imagine the love child Tracy Chapman and James Mercer would have after a long hot summer with both members of the Black Keys and a tonguing from Beth Gibbons…then you're just round the corner.

WOLFSCARERS

Wolfscarers is the saxophone duet of Keith Jafrate (tenor,alto) & Simon Prince (tenor & flutes).

Playing in & around the improvised & experimental music clubs of Manchester,Sheffield & Liverpool since 2010,WOLFSCARERS make spontaneous extended soundscapes with,sometimes,a little jazz,a little new music,some beautiful sound poems & some shouting.They recorded the CDR 'THROAT' for THE NOISE UPSTAIRS in 2011


ABOUT MIX-UP:

Mix-Up is a monthly night hosted by The Magic Hat Ensemble, which as the name suggests features three musical acts across different styles and forms.

Held on the first Thursday of the month at The Klondyke Club in Levenshulme (1 Burnage Range, third road on the left from Levenshulme Station off Albert Road, walking towards Burnage – call 0161 224 4122) the night promises to offer three quality bands, all for a measly fiver.

Mix-Up is a cracking night of live music featuring the cream of Manchester’s music scene. We will soon be confirming further acts for future nights.

You can keep up to date with who’s playing and when on our websitehttp://www.mixupmcr.com/
