An Invada Records night

with Joe Volk + Whalebone Polly
(Thu 12th / 8pm / £4)

Scottish folky-rocking wee beauties descend on Bristol after a string of appearances with Teenage Fanclub across the UK. Pack into the Microplex's intimate confines to catch this lot while you can.

The magical urban-pagan celtic sound of eight young people from the prospering Glaswegian underground (including members of Will Oldham's band and Telstar Ponies), Lucky Luke combine the 70s folk rock sounds of Fairport Convention with the Velvet Underground's edge in a joyous battle of flute, fiddle, harmonium and voices. Their debut album is out now and getting amazing reviews.

Support comes in the form of a special acoustic set from Gonga vocalist Joe Volk (Invada/Plug 58); tunes in the bar supplied by Fat Paul.
