Disasteradio are playing tonight at Sputnik in Nantes, Pays de la Loire. So for any of our French followers, please check him out! I was lucky enough to catch Luke's set in Stamford... he's really something, you know.

If you fancy a dance to some slick, Kiwi electronica get on down to Sputnik tonight!

Oh and Nantes... it's real pretty...

Little Power Gig

Tonight The Voodoo Lounge in Stamford hosts a Little Power extravaganza.

First up, Frisco Farr will be playing with a new lineup. Whilst Shawnee (synth/vox) is away in Reno, Arizona doing conservation work in a national park (cool right?) a slightly modified lineup will be touring. Tonight will be the first airing of said lineup... featuring... me... on synth and vocals with additional support coming from Sandy who will also be providing Shawnee's vox. I think it's going to be a pretty visceral performance....

Following FF, will be New Zealand's finest... Disasteradio. This electronic whizz shall be playing headlining the night and I personally can't wait.

Medium

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like our very own Neon Mussolini...

Medium

... shall be dj'ing now, but I'm sure Science & Magick's Craig will be stepping up to the DJ booth and spinning some top notch tunes like he did last time. Anyone who can scream a little bit of The Locust onto a dancefloor shall always remain high in my eyes.

So if you're prepared to miss the Champions League final for some music and partying, head down to the Voodoo Lounge in Stamford tonight! Plus they do a mean gumbo upstairs (the candied yams are pretty special too).

All that remains, is... come on Barcelona!!!

See you at Stamford ;)

UH OHs join the roster!

I'm proud to announce the latest addition to the Little Power Records family... UH OHs.

UH OHs

This feisty Norwich three-piece knocked my socks off a few monthes back when I went to catch them play so I'm simply delighted to have snapped them up for a double single. I'd describe them as an alternative rock band making pop songs with a dangerous underbelly... but I'd much rather you make your own mind up. You can check out "I Cant Wait" on our myspace player here:

www.myspace.com/littlepowerrecords

"I Cant Wait/I Am Underdog" will be available through iTunes and download through our soon to be released new website with a limited number of promotional art cards (more of which soon) on the 29th of June.

D-rad tour update #17

On Saturday Disasteradio played two amazing gigs I forgot to tell you about. The first was at Proud Galleries in Camden, London- which is a venue I really like. It was converted from a Victorian stables into a trendy art gallery and venue (it still has the cobbled stones inside it and the boothes are converted from the actual stables!) After playing their set here Disasteradio dashed to Vibe Bar, Brick Lane for an event curated by A Low Hum's very own Blink. I unfortunately couldn't get there myself, but the word is that it was a mental night!

D-rad tour update #16

While I was frantically learning all of the Frisco Farr songs (I'm filling in for Shawnee while he's in Reno, Arizona for four monthes doing conservation work in the woods) yesterday, Disasteradio were hitting up the Club Snafu in Aberdeen. Hot Chip have dj'd there in the past to name but one great act who has performed there.

Tonight, D-rad is in Glasgow, playing at Bloc.
