After the hectic week of gigs, normal business has resumed and Getintothis’ Simon Kirk has you covered with all the details.
With the BBC 6 Music and Threshold festivals sweeping across Merseyside last week, we are all taking a collective breather from the brilliant weekend which included a vast array of artists, both locally and from afar.
They say there is no rest for the wicked, and on the subject of our fine city that is certainly the case.
There is quite a bit of in-store action this week – particularly at Jacaranda Phase One.
Don’t forget our Deep Cuts night, either, and there’s Capeesh’s Kick.Out at the Jacaranda Club on Friday. Both nights include the city’s brightest up and coming acts also drawing from talent across the north of the country.
Without further ado, all the details you need are below. Enjoy your week in Gigland.
Good Cop Bad Cop: Jacaranda Phase One, Monday April 1
New project between Arctic Monkeys drummer, Matt Helders, and Milburn frontman, Joe Carnall, Good Cop Bad Cop are playing ‘Phase One in support of their debut self-titled album, which was released on Friday.
This will be a stripped back affair with the band conducting an in-store signing afterwards.
Deep Cuts #25: Jacaranda Phase One, Thursday April 4
Our Deep Cuts event is back at GIT headquarters, Jacaranda Phase One.
There’s a big night planned, with Mosely Bar and Cowgirl having you covered for the riffs, Douglas Savage nailing it down for your psych, and those wanting some orchestral electronica, then Darling will provide.
Rounding out the line-up is Scouse poet, ROY, and Kingsp1n. We’ll see you all there.
