Speedmarket Avenue

Sunday, 15 March

Wilmington Arms, 69 Rosebery Avenue, Clerkenwell, EC1R 4RL

Live Music: , Indie, Pop

How Much: £5.00 (Entry)
By now you may be thinking to yourself 'why do these Spoonfed guys keep banging on about bands from Scandinavia?' Well, the answer to that is simply because everything coming out of there is bloody amazing at the moment.

Take Speedmarket Avenue for example: yet another bunch of Swedes who are making amazing music look easy. On one hand they make breezy indie pop that reminds us of Belle and Sebastian, BMX Bandits and Polaris, but on the other hand they have really dark song titles like 'I'm Going to Let Swiss Army Knife Answer That'.

Dammit. We're moving to Stockholm right now.
