ERNIE BELL (CD Launch)
Superb songwriter who spices up Stepping Out's showstopping songs with humour, heart and hats! From poignant to hilarious, intimate to singalong, these are songs you'll want to take home with you (and lo, you can! On Stepping Out's new CD).
"One of Bristol's gutsiest artists ... Beautiful slouching sadness'. Venue 4 star revue of Elliot's new album'Adults are Stupid'.
' 'Remember the very first time you heard Tom Waits and you thought: "No way"? It's like that with Elliot Hall of Bristol. All is shot through with a rare honesty - never do the subject matter or lyrics feel phony. Hall is what Ray LaMontagne pretends to be. He is heroic and compelling'. VENUE magazine live review
Jazz-edged acoustica from sublime singer featured in top Bristol bands The Mandibles and Bert Miller & The Animal Folk.
"Leonie Evans is simply revelatory. There's something Joanna Newsom-ish about the way she sets out her brilliantly distinctive musical stall, and then sits utterly unselfconsciously inside it. It's the voice that astonishes, flicking in a single line from Karen Dalton's hazy, wistful quiver to Bjork-patented growls. Utterly unaffected and altogether rather magical" VENUE magazine live revue.
