British Sea Power - 2011-04-05 - The Independent SF


Less talk, more bands.  As Yan said it best after Canvey Island (at the 4:45 point) we're not conversational, we're here to play music.  Our small group were right up front so we were in a great position to watch Brighton's finest, eschewing some of the scenery and antics of past performances, just playing their songs.  Much of their set featured songs from their newest long-player Valhalla Dancehall, but there was a generous selection of past tracks as well.

They're from Bologna, Italy.
No baloney.  The singer sounded Canadian though.  Loved the Fresh and Only shirt they keyboardist was wearing, that's a good touchstone for the kind of tunes
these cats were playing.

Was very favorably impressed by these guys, it turns out that the father of one of the players on my boys' soccer team is close friends with singer Kevin, as they went to the same high school together.  Looking forward to hearing their upcoming releases in full.
