Sexed up Soul Funk for the modern age

Band Profile: The Jen Low Band
Jen Low - Lead Vocals, Lyrics, Melodies Chris Backhouse - Saxophone Simon Waggott - Keyboards, Lead and Backing Vocals Karl Moon - Guitar The Jen Low Band is based around the lyrics and melodies of a twenty-something singer songwriter from Leeds.
Mancunians? ...surely not, you mean The Rain Band are from Manchester... I'd never have guessed, or should I say "Ayyeeeed nevuur av guezzed man!" Oh yes - review for the short on attention: do you like Joy Division, The Stone Roses, New Order, Flowered up, Mansun, Space Monkeys and most things on Factory Records?
The Warsaw Village Band @ Courthouse (Otley)
There are any number of things you could choose to do of a Wednesday evening in Otley; I understand that there are some very challenging pub quizzes, perhaps a meal out in one of the many and varied restaurants, a quiet night in in front of the television might appeal to some, or even attending a gymnasium for some much needed aerobic exercise.
The Old Romantic Killer Band: You Don't Know How To Love
If the Mississippi is the homeland of the blues then nobody told The Old Romantic Killer Band. The Leeds-based two piece grind out the kind of blues fuelled garage-punk that I can only imagine they must have conceived high on the powdered bones of Howlin' Wolf.
Duncan McFarlane Band @ New Roscoe
Hmm.... the New Roscoe you say? Isn't that where the tribute bands play? Well yes I suppose it is, but periodically they offer a night over to a group of performers who can really write songs and play them without pretending to be someone else.
Having read on the Cockpit website that The Spinto Band were getting some press with features in NME and the Fly, I made sure I got there early on the off-chance that they'd sell out.
The Ben Siddall Band: High On You EP
Ben Siddall's music is smoothly well made. It's the kind of non-committed generalised hobbyist pop that can only really exist on demo CDs.
The Rain Band: Knee Deep and Down
Hailing from Maannchestuur!! The Rainband don't half support their Mersey heritage. Hear with me the Roses and New Order, and the now extinct Food artists - Space Monkeys.
Gary Stewart Band @ Courthouse (Otley)
Apologies to all others on the bill at the Courthouse; the Gary Stewart Band was the only complete set a busy night allowed me.
alternative pop
Band from West and North Yorkshire, with critical aclaim for both thier first EP and thier long-player in 2005, the talent of this band is boundless, expect expert piano and guitar parts with cutting bass and drum sections
John McCusker Band @ Otley Methodist Hall
How far beyond expectation is the word 'lush' when describing Scottish traditional music? Well, it can turn up here - because the musicians are the John McCusker Band, and listening to them you get the quality of the playing, the power of the sound, and a strength that is not a matter of amplification.
Bog standard songs with max production trickery equals radio possibility and no reason to be interested.
Band Profile: The Old Romantic Killer Band
The Old Romantic Killer Band play blues and folk orientated pop music but they play it hard and loud.
Too many bands these days have lost, or never found their mystique in attempt to drive home the harsh facts and harsher reality of our lives.
Duncan McFarlane Band @ Korks (Otley)
What Otley has rightly become used to when the Duncan McFarlane Band plays the Folk Festival there, is a glowingly satisfied home crowd with a similar reaction from visitors who know the band's sound - and amidst all this, many new listeners simply astounded at the quality of Duncan and his musicians.
The Incredible String Band @ Hebden Bridge Picture House
"You may have gathered by now that we're a bit of a nostalgia act" quoth Mike Heron after a oddly banterless opening of two ISB classics, "you might say we are our own tribute band", well, yes, but I for one couldn't have asked for anything more.
Gary Stewart Band: Tables, Trees and Tripods
I first came to hear of the Gary Stewart Band at the Futuresound heats in July of last year, when I was bowled over by their performance.
Duncan McFarlane Band: Woodshed Boys
After having had the pleasure of catching this band live several times I had very high expectations of this album.
This 10 track CD on Eggbert Records is a celebration of traditional guitar pop values. Danny Slack, Sam Forrest, Dave Hunt and Tom Johnson do timeless craftsman-built songs as if English punk had never happened.
The Romance are a four piece band tired of being compared to Arctic Monkeys; "If you're from the North they compare you to Arctic Monkeys, if you're Southern it's The Libertines. It's just lazy journalism". Charlotte Oxnard chats to the band to find out more...
I was excited about this gig. I've enjoyed The Music's debut album and have been looking forward to tonight for sometime - tickets sold out about 4/5 weeks earlier so I was expecting an electric atmosphere inside this rather strange new venue under Leeds train station.
four day Hombre @ Royal Park Cellars
There's a vibe in the air tonight, a tangible, swelling excitement that seems to accompany the Hombre lads everywhere they travel.

The Old Romantic Killer Band @ Brudenell Social Club
The Despondents, although showed considerable effort, ultimately fell flat. The impression they gave off certainly wasn't helped by the lead singer's 'eccentric' white sunglasses.

Pulled Apart by Horses @ Faversham
It has seriously taken me a few days to piece together this review. I've been finding it a strain on my creative juice-box to summon the correct words to emphasise the compelling amount of joy received from this gleefully amazing line-up which only set punters back a mere £4.
Neil Cowley Trio @ Millennium Square
The Leeds Jazz festival has become an easy way for the average music lover to be exposed to a whole host of talented Jazz musicians from across the UK.
Pulled Apart by Horses @ Moor Music Festival 2008
There are countless laudable aspects of the weekend that will have been taken away by all of the festival-goers, but arguably it's Moor Music Festival's inclusive eclecticism that deserves the biggest pat on the back.
Its not easy getting some attention.
Every since I first heard Formed A Band on Steve Lamacq's 6 Music show last month - and every week thereafter as it became - I'd been hankering to get my hands on it.
