As 2010 draws to a close the White Heath camp is beginning to pack up shop for Christmas. The album’s recorded and pretty much mixed; we’ve one last day of final editing to go before we can call it a wrap, but all in all it’s pretty much there. We’ve seen the last of the really big creative decisions, and the only thing left is a little polishing to make it perfect. It’s nice that it’ll be completed to see the beginning of the New Year; it’s strange how there’s something about that festival in particular which encourages this kind of sentimentality. For some reason Hogmanay really feels like it has some bearing on how you organise your life, even to the least traditional and superstitious among us.Anyway, before that happens, we’ve a couple of shows lined up in Edinburgh and Glasgow if you want to see us play one last time before the holidays.
This Sunday (12th) we’ll be heading through to Glasgow to play at the Captain’s Rest with The Red Show and Rollor, both fantastic examples of interesting modern rock and roll, full of an energy and intelligence that drives their music forward. Oh, and to play the charity card: it’s a fundraiser for children’s care.
As to our home city, we’re playing Henry’s Cellar Bar on Black Friday (17th). We’ll be supporting Tom Hingley, the legendary frontman of The Inspiral Carpets, one of Manchester’s most revered and influential bands. This gig’s going to be off the hook, so make sure you get there quite early as other commitments have meant we’ve had to request one of the earlier slots.
Cool! See you there!
