Chief, Luminaire
by admin on Jul.02, 2009, under Uncategorized
Ok, so I see a couple of hundred sets a year maybe and very, very occasionally, there’s a band I think “oh, yes”. Chief are one such. OK, I was pre-warned. People I know who went to Glastonbury and saw them raved about them and a mate who booked them up in deepest, darkest Kidderminster also rave. And I know their manager from a brief encounter at In The City five years ago.
All that aside, it didn’t open so well for me. But as they got into their stride, the chilled SaMo melodies insinuated themselved into the transiom of my consciousness and by the end I didn’t want them to stop. It was music for the setting LA sun, the beaches, the sushi and the surf.
If you weren’t there, you heard it here first. They have a few dates coming up, not least at the Louie in Brizzle which I’m tempted to go to as well.
