The Lofty Heights + Sweet Baboo + Withered Hand
Wilmington Arms, 69 Rosebery Avenue, Clerkenwell, EC1R 4RL
Known for a dreamy, ethereal sound, Scottish folk act and one-time King
Creosote collaborator, Withered Hand definitely isn't your normal
singer songwriter. Influenced as much by Pavement as Belle and
Sebastian, his songs are dry-humoured lessons in self deprecation,
laced with witty-one liners and easy charm. In fact, he's so likeable,
we challenge you to take your most cynical mate to one of his gigs and
see if he's not won over by the end.
Tonight Withered Hand
brings his reflective observations and acoustic guitar for a headline
set tonight at the Wilmington, with Sweet Baboo and and up-and-coming
Californian folk-popsters Lofty Heights in support.
