Joel Nicholson has just packed the removal cases, his guitar and the instruments. It's good that his music is so easy to transport from one place to another, between the places and to the people. Once, the 22-year-old Briton has described the cast list of his intimate band as "me and my bedroom". In Manchester the songs of "Butcher the Bar" fill a small house now. But soon these walls won't be the single ones in which they live. "Make this house a home" maches this atmosphere. It sounds a little like Elliot Smith, the chords' persuasive power, the immediacy of the softly spoken words.
The Pharmacy is a psychedelic/indie punk band from Seattle, Washington, consisting of three members: Scott Yoder (guitar, lead vocals), Brendhan Bowers (drums, backing vocals), and Stefan Rubicz (keyboards, backing vocals). They also have been known to record with a wide array of other instruments including strings, horns, and many different types of synthesizers/keyboards. They occasionally play live with cellist Calvin Havnaer.

Music and lyrics are by singer and guitarist, Max, with Billy (bass) and Bertie (drums) completing a powerful line-up. ‘Don’t Miss now - if you want to hold your head up when they play the 02’ - Mark Rowland, CEO Indiemedia

About Me And The Beast "ME AND THE BEAST - They're from London but this left field lyrical electro pop has a Bjork like eccentricity, Kate Bush enigmatics in the vocals, and even a touch of the Abbas in the music….piano, electro keyboards with bit of Fiery Furnaces quirkiness. Really original, weird and wonderful songs. Very unselfconscious and hypnotic." Bugbear Carly. Vocals
