THE SHIVERS (NYC) plus support from THE EXISTENCE OF HARVEY LORD (Cumbria)

If you like lyrically charged and passionate written expression adorned with piano, guitar and organ, you will totally love this event.

We will also be having The Tudor's first firework display! (just either donate a small amount or bring some for the organisers to set off!)

What a night!! Read below for a little more info:

THE SHIVERS are a rock-pop group, based out of Queens, New York, comprising the talents of Keith Zarriello (lead vocals, guitar) and Jo Schornikow (vocals, keys/organ).
Keith is your typical East Coast American tortured neurotic / love-lorn romantic, and part time estate-agent; Jo, your typical Australian travelling dreamer, virtuoso keyboard player, and occasional church-organist. Together, they’ve created one of the most beautifully compelling albums you’re likely to hear all year: MORE.
The band recently signed to the Fife-based DIY record label, Fence Records - birthing ground to The Beta Band and KT Tunstall, and home to Mercury nominee King Creosote, James Yorkston, The Pictish Trail and more.
Now the duo are coming over to the UK for a short blast of headline shows, and notable supports.
If you like the grit of The Velvets, the shuffle of The Boss, the pristine sheen of The Strokes and the sass of Leonard Cohen you’ll find plenty to love in The Shivers.

PRESS IS MORE: PRAISE FOR THE SHIVERS

“A perfect introduction to their idiosyncratic and gentle form of genius. Delivers the requisite shivers down the spine. Quietly inspired.”
FOUR STARS ****, THE LIST

“Somehow, it’s taken five self-released albums for someone in the UK to prick up their ears and sign New York’s The Shivers. Johnny Lynch (aka The Pictish Trail, aka Fence’s high heid yin) is the good soul responsible for terminating the stalemate, and this sixth full-length is a perfect profile-raiser that should have newcomers raiding the preceding pentad hungrily.”
FOUR STARS ****, THE SKINNY

“I love this ... What a great record!”
ROB DA BANK, BBC RADIO ONE

Support comes from psychedelic-folk band The Existence of Harvey Lord from Cumbria who are ALSO releasing their new album!!

So...a DOUBLE TREAT...put it in your diary, put it in a tweet, put it in your head and it'll warm you to the feet!!

There we go...no-one can say I'm not a poet now!! Hope to see you there. Baz, Paul and Imploding Inevitable xxx
