@Honest_Matt Meets...

gig guide THE GIG GUIDE! I don’t know why I put that in all caps probably because IT’S THE GIG GUIDE!! Okay, I will stop. Enjoy and see you on the d-floor!

Wednesday Skint House Bar, 6-9 pm You know the drill.. cheap pizza and cheap drinks with student ID! 2 for 1 Cocktails Grand Central Hotel, All day Let’s all be cla$$y! Matt Hicks has a bit of a chin wag with Tahuna Breaks frontman Marty Greentree about the bands career to date, working with Crazy P and why the new album ‘Shadow Light’ has taken so long to come out.

Thursday Thursday nights with Dj StuE Agenda Did anyone say there’s nothing happening on Thursdays?

‘Shadow Light’ seemed to take quite awhile to make. What was the hold up? …. um there are 4 ‘excuses’ I can think of: 1. We took a different approach to the last 2 albums and instead of going into a studio for a week or two and hammering the tunes out in a very live way we embraced technology and took our time and recorded it mostly ourselves. This afforded us the luxury of experimenting but also meant at times we got distracted and went down the garden path exploring all the options not necessarily the right one! 2. The way the songs were written this time around involved a very comprehensive and exhaustive consultation process with the seven members of the band which naturally added to the delays - much like obtaining the right consents from your local council to get a new house built! 3. All of us work and don’t do this full time and have business to take care on the home front. So after a hard day at work, as cool as music is, sometimes the last thing you feel like doing is trying to write a song or being creative - can’t force these things!

4. Crazy P are based in the UK and are active musicians themselves so the obvious logistics of coordinating schedules added to the delay.
