Description du concert
The Monochrome Set return to The Thunderbolt to promote their new album of 'Marc Riley Sessions from 2011 to 2022.'. The band feature original Monochrome Set members Bid (guitar/vocals) and Andy Warren (bass) with Athen Ayren on keyboards and Stephen Gilchrist on drums.
The Monochrome Set formed in 1978, and were heavily influential in the post-punk scene that evolved after the initial scorched earth of punk. The band's early releases were on the legendary Rough Trade Label before signing with Virgin offshoot Din Disc. They also released several albums on the Cherry Red label, making a notable appearance on that labels' well known "Pillows and Prayers" compilation.
Though The Monochrome Set split in 1985 the next decade saw several reunions for both live gigs and further studio recordings. After a hiatus of over a decade the band reformed full time in 2010 and have since toured all over the UK, Europe, Japan and the USA, whilst also releasing seven new, critically acclaimed, studio albums. Now in their 46th year, they are beginning a new series of gigs promoting their latest album and playing songs old and new.
Support - The Big However
Bristol based art folk garage indie collective. Using discarded musicians sourced locally. Melodic, intelligent, yet unintelligent popular music. Non-iconic & sustainable. "Poignant". Cello mandolin guitars bass drums clarinet accordion and soaring harmonies
and These Vagabond Shoes
Long lost, 1986, Nottingham band These Vagabond Shoes finally make their Bristol debut. Entangled with early pre-Tindersticks in various confusing ways they managed to release one EP ?Pale Blue Ties? as part of the Crimplene Collective before disintegrating due to some reason or other that no one involved can quite remember
