I want to share the amazing band that is the Leisure Society with the blogging world, its a 7 (usually) piece band and my cousin helen plays the flute in it. They have twice been nominated for the ivor novello award (losing out to Elbow and Lilly allen) and once for a mercury award. Having played at many festivals including glastonbury they are now touring with Laura Marling on her cathedral tour.
ON saturday night i went with my family to see her at exeter cathedral, the leisure society did a 4 piece (helen - flute and vocals, nick - lead vocals and guitar, christian vocals and piano and mike - violin) acoustic set it was really beautiful! After they came to say at my house and we finally got to be by 4 in the morning after sitting round my table drinking wine, whisky and jagermeister ... up for the rugby by 9 all hungover with a bacon sandwich! But there music is amazing! 'Into the murky waters' is their latest album and its very good! Dust on the dance floor and this phantom life are just some of my favourites!
CHECK THEM OUT!
Until next time..
