Mountain Man live at Nation of Shopkeepers. Mon 28th June

Photobucket

I'm really excited for this gig and with the album being released this Monday on Bella Union, it should provide the boost to get these three girls as noticed as they deserve to be. Mountain Man are a three piece currently based in Vermont and sing (as they don't play a lot of instruments live) a mixture of weird Americana Folk and semi traditional songs with odd lyrics about dogs and what not. Its all pretty new to me and I like it a lot, the perfect blend of soft vocals and some good tongue in cheek stories, inspiring.

The gig takes place on Monday 28th June at 8pm at NNation of Shopkeepers in Leeds. Tickets are a mere £3.00 in advance from Jumbo, Crash and Seetickets or you can pay on the door which is £5.00. Its a semi seated gig so there's only 75 tickets available for this so its nice a peaceful like.
