Isn’t it nice when you feel like you’ve discovered something no one else knows about? It’s all yours and it makes it all the more enjoyable for it! I had one of those Cash in the Attic type moments when I was listening to the radio past the midnight hour. I was chopping between iplayer radio buttons and on BBC Radio 2 I heard this voice. It was such wailing lovelorn voice and with symbols and drums, trumpets and it has this teenagy achey sixties vibe to it, I’d convinced myself it was Lulu’s long lost sister.
I only caught it half way through but I got the name of the band, Two Wings and found out a London gig was a few weeks off and as fate would have it 10 minutes round the corner from where I work. That and the fact that they came from Glasgow, my home for 6 years, a place which has an amazing music culture, especially when it comes to guitar bands, meant I prebooked. Yes, that’s how much I wanted in on this.
