The Medicine Show

Totally live and totally authentic -
THE MEDICINE SHOW sound like the hottest, wettest, most nasty swamp
you've ever even heard tell about.
crocs! Snakes that'll crawl right up your leg, and skeeters big enough to
strip the living flesh from a grown
man's arm. A tar paper shack with a boiled ham hanging in a sack, in the
shade of the willow tree.
Fear, aching, love and pain, running from the cops cos you just know
they's gonna put you in jail again. Band Members

Nacho Vegas

Self-described as a rock-singer-songwriter, Nacho Vegas blends the polyhedric language of rock and the most stark lyricism into an intense whole. His lyrics are painful and celebratory, pathetic and grand, brutally lucid and of an intimate beauty; a desperate philosophy of survival shines with a wicked sense of humour and a longing for the divine. Nacho Vegas has been a prominent figure in the Spanish 'indie' scene since his work with Eliminator Jr, Manta Ray; bands influenced by Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, and other similar avant-rock acts of the early 90's.

Binary Band

Binary Band is formed of the sparring vocal harmonies, dobro (slide guitar) and harmonium (missionary organ) of Ali Thoburn and Billy Tudor, and complimented by the occasional electric piano and pieces of catgut, dusty wood and rusty metal. The resulting sound is an earthy, wide-screen brew of American roots, English psychedelia, film soundtracks, North African blues and Far Eastern influences that brings to mind Neil Young, The Low Anthem, Peter Gabriel, The Band, Tinariwen and Traffic.
