BLACK LIPS // MIKA MIKO // TIMES NEW VIKING // GRINGO STAR

I'll Be With You - Black Lips


Sorry for the lack of post from myself over the last couple of weeks, I've been away hitch-hiking to Africa.

The guys over at Bad Sneakers have got another awesome line-up at TJ's Woodhouse Club on the 20th May. Headlining is Atlanta's Black Lips who have been spreading their "Flower Punk" across the world since forming in 2000. Last month they released their 5th studio album '200 Million Thousand' which is again a great example of why they are going to continue to take over the world. Their renown crazy live performances should not be to missed. You can see their new video above for 'I'll Be With You'.

Joining Black Lips will be Times New Viking who aren't my favorite band from the NY scene but after getting their 'Stay Awake EP' they are growing on me, so ready to give them another chance. Finally on the bill is Mika Miko and Gringo Star.

Tickets cost £14 and are available from from Crash Records and Jumbo Records.
For more info go to the Events Page.

This is going to be the first event of a hectic bank holiday weekend in Leeds.
