A night of local talent at The Maze.
Grain: I first saw Grain at last year's Drop In The Ocean - they played at Dogma wearing nothing but aprons! - this (if my addled memory serves me correctly) was the third time I've seen them live. Their musical style is described as "Kung fu hillbilly funk". As ever a fun and enjoyable set from them.
The Dirty Backbeats: First seen supporting Grain at The Maze last year, this time they were headlining. Watching The Dirty Backbeats play is "like going to the circus on acid!" Their lead singer needs to be seen to be believed - his performing style means that you are ever fearful that he'll topple off The Maze's minute stage! It's probably close to six months since I first saw them, but they left such an impression that their songs were instantly recognisable.
If you get a chance to see either of these acts, I'd wholeheartedly recommend it.
Quote of the night: "They ain't mainstream, but they're f**king brilliant!"
