Tonight’s White Fence show at the 100 Club reminds us how 60’s music will always be re-interpreted in new and interesting ways. Support bands Family and Ultimate Painting bring a  Velvet Underground and The Byrds tinged vibe to the proceedings. Ultimate Painting (former members of Mazes and Veronica Falls) really stands out with their two singers trading off vocals and harmonizing over evocative, meandering songs.

Sporting a spangly, paisley top, but with an understated presence, Tim Presley is beloved by this crowd. A highly respected figure in the psychedelic lo-fi scene, his band (including Cate Le Bon on guitar and vocals, Nick Murray on drums and bass player Josh Puklavetzon on this tour) White Fence, brings a fierceness and intensity to the stage.

Arrow Man and Fear from his 2014 album, For the Recently Found Innocent are particular standouts and we get a nearly 10 minute mega-jam at one point. It’s worth noting that this really was an all ages show.

White Fence appeals to people new to the genre of lo-fi psychedelia  and for those well familiar with Tim Presley and his circle that includes Jessica Pratt and Ty Segall. Check out his work with The Fall and Darker My Love to see the depth of his influence. It might be January, where the gigs hard to come by, but we’d all be happy to see White Fence again no matter the month.

Seb Lowe @ Roundhouse (Kalpesh Patel)

Seb Lowe Brings Fire, Fury And Folk-Punk Spirit To Sofia Isella’s Roundhouse Crowd

Opening for Sofia Isella at London’s Roundhouse, Seb Lowe wastes no time making an impression. Walking onto the stage armed with only an acoustic guitar and accompanied by violinist and backing vocalist Kate Couriel, the Sheffield singer-songwriter delivers a powerful 30-minute set that feels far bigger than its stripped-back format suggests.

Sofia Isella @ Roundhouse (Kalpesh Patel)

Sofia Isella Captivates London’s Roundhouse On Emotional Tour Finale

Sofia Isella arrives at the Roundhouse like a storm she can barely contain. Emerging from the shadows, backed by ominous electronic textures and silhouettes, she immediately cuts a striking figure. She paces furiously across the stage, hair hanging over her face, constantly tugging at her oversized clothes as though caught between wanting to tear them off and feeling trapped inside them. Her fingers are haphazardly bound with elastic bands, while her face and arms are purposely dirtied. It’s uncomfortable, theatrical and utterly compelling.
