Technicolour Dreaming

It’s the final show for 2013 and it was on New Year’s Eve, so it was appropriate we wrapped up our series of “Favourites of the Year” with what was certainly a highlight of 2013 – the new Wooden Shjips LP. Before we got there though, there was a plethora of other faves to be played, though of course some slipped through the cracks and these will no doubt ooze into our early 2014 shows! Anyway, we hope you all have a great New Year – one that promises to build on the growing eruption of excellent psychedelia that seems to be overtaking us... 2014 should hold some very intriguing new music! So, without further ado.....
