Lucy Rose<br />
Stanley Theatre – 12/11<br />
Lucy Rose<br />
Honouring the release of her latest album Something’s<br />
Changing, LUCY ROSE brings her soothing sound to<br />
Stanley Theatre. The album marks her newfound selfconfidence<br />
after an eight-week acoustic tour of South<br />
America, which was free to attend for audiences who<br />
organised and hosted the gigs. Travelling only with a<br />
guitar and backpack and staying with her fans along the<br />
way, Rose filmed a short documentary to accompany<br />
Something’s Changing to celebrate the transforming<br />
experience. The work points to an exciting new chapter for<br />
Rose and a stronger sense of self that has reinforced her<br />
comforting music and mellow nature.<br />

Blick Bassy<br />
Philharmonic Hall – 25/11<br />
The folk-Afro-blues mash-up of BLICK BASSY graces the<br />
Philharmonic Hall in <strong>November</strong>. Born and raised in Yaounde,<br />
Cameroon, the local rhythms that first inspired Bassy to begin his<br />
music career are ever-present in his current work. Sung entirely in<br />
Bassa, his native language brings its own colour and richness to<br />
the dreamlike melodies. Bassy’s latest album Akö pays homage to<br />
Mississippi bluesman Skip James, and delivers a unique blend of guitar,<br />
banjo, cello and trombone. As part of Africa Oyé’s 25th anniversary<br />
celebrations – and in collaboration with Mellowtone – Bassy will share<br />
the sounds, rhythms and stories of his beloved Cameroon.<br />

Ride<br />
O2 Academy – 12/11<br />
It’s been two years since RIDE announced their long-awaited<br />
and anticipated reunion, after their split in 1996. The world tour<br />
that followed was the first time the band had played together<br />
since 2001, and proved a triumphant return to the weighty rock<br />
tracks that helped establish the shoegazing era. Returning this<br />
year with Weather Diaries, Ride will be performing their newest<br />
work at the O2 Academy, to be heard the only way their music<br />
should be heard: at maximum volume. Intending to pick up right<br />
where they left off, this marks a steadfast and promising new<br />
era for Ride.<br />
FILM<br />
Sin Bin Of The City<br />
Constellations – 08/11<br />
Using first-hand accounts and ITN’s newsreel, James Arthur Armstrong sheds<br />
new light on the 1981 Toxteth riots in his latest documentary SIN BIN OF THE<br />
CITY, screening at Constellations on 8th <strong>November</strong>, accompanied by an exhibition<br />
of newspaper excerpts, photographs and more unheard audio interviews from<br />
the people who feature in the film. The film itself will explore the political and<br />
social climate that lead an over-policed and under-valued community to uprise.<br />
Armstrong aims to bring honest and personal accounts to the forefront of his<br />
film, allowing the perspectives that got lost amongst the noise of the press to<br />
be heard, and points to the events’ relevance in a contemporary society that is<br />
experiencing familiar tensions.<br />

Lorenzo Senni<br />
24 Kitchen Street – 10/11<br />
Lorenzo Senni<br />
Hitting 24 Kitchen Street with trance anthems, the Italian experimentalist LORENZO SENNI<br />
returns to the UK with his latest work The Shape Of Trance To Come. The record explores<br />
Senni’s love of punk hardcore and rave culture that results in his progressive dancefloor tracks<br />
that push digital audio to its limits. Harmonic and hyperreal, Senni aims to take his audience on<br />
a euphoric rave with trance synths and repetitive melodies. Detroit techno legend DJ STINGRAY<br />
will also be performing on the night, bringing his equally experimental mixes that capture tense,<br />
dystopian moods to the dancefloor.<br />
FESTIVAL<br />
Dead Good Gathering<br />
Various venues – 17/11-19/11<br />
The folks at Antipop Records have pulled a few treats out their bag for their<br />
mini festival Dead Good Gathering. A festival for the socially-conscious<br />
spanning a host of genres, Friday 17th <strong>November</strong> sees things kick off at<br />
Maguire’s Pizza bar with THE ROUGHNECK RIOT and HABITS, while the<br />
action moves to Constellations on the Saturday with OI POLLOI, QUEEN<br />
ZEE AND THE SASSTONES, THE RESTARTS, PETE BENTHAM AND THE<br />
DINNER LADIES, BOLSHY and more. After Saturday night’s riotous line-up,<br />
they promise that the Sunday will be a more chilled affair, when they take over<br />
Liverpool Social Centre with WADEYE heading up proceedings. With advance<br />
weekend tickets only £20, it’s easy to get in on the action.<br />
