10 NOVEMBER
TAMZENE :: At Laylow, London. Tamzene spent
years busking contemporary pop songs which
taught her invaluable songwriting skills. Taking
cues from pop contemporaries such as Adele
and Alicia Keys as much as the classic voices
of Ella Fitzgerald and Aretha Franklin, her
vocal is bold and innately emotive, and truly
enraptures any audience. She is now touring
promoting her new EP, 'Details'.

1 DECEMBER
GUN (full band) :: At O2 Academy Islington,
London. Glaswegian rockers GUN are back with
their brand new album, ‘The Calton Songs’. The
album that takes its name from the area of
Glasgow where the band grew up, and where
they still write their music. This record is about
celebrating the road that GUN have taken to
reach this point, these new versions of great
songs are cut through with un-ironic nostalgia
but this is a band with an eye on the horizon for
what’s to come, not what’s over their shoulder in
the past. To celebrate the release of ‘The Calton
Songs’ the band will tour a run of fully-fledged
electric shows throughout November and
December that will culminate in a massive
hometown party at the Barrowland Ballroom.
