Yes Brothers and Sisters, let me hear you say “Hare
and Hounds on Monday March 9th!” Let me hear you say “Tickets available from our good friends at Birmingham Promoters!” And let me hear you
say “Would you like a double G&T?!” Hell, it’s worth a try. Anyway, if you’ve
not heard BC Camplight before you’re in for a treat. Take a dash of Brian
Wilson, add a pinch of John Grant and whip in just a hint of Smokey Robinson et
voila.
It’s no secret that ol' BC (aka Brian Christinzio) has seen his fair share
of troubled times over the past few years with addictions to drugs and booze culminating
in his retirement from the music biz and, I’m guessing, very nearly planet
earth itself. Invited over by a fan from his ‘home’, an abandoned church in Philadelphia to Manchester in 2011 he slowly got back into writing and playing again with
the first fruits of this creative rebirth being the heart shattering new album How To Die In The North. Highly
recommended.
