The Waiting Room

This Waiting for Sunday we are very pleased to present...

Uwe's Night of Wonder

featuring Andrew Johnson

Uwe were once Molly Bloom and are now not really one thing or the other, but still have some killer songs and a licence to thrill, Andy Johnson has always been Andy Johnson and has always produced some of the very best indie pop and roll music that Teesside has had to offer. Andy will be previewing his 6th Album, Luke and Dave will be messing about and wondering why they got their act together to make album number 1.

This is what The evening Gazette's Rob Nichol's had to say, the last time this week's artist's lined up together:

"Last Sunday it was the birthday of owner LUKE HARDING and as a special treat the former singer with Molly Bloom performed live...Luke and Dave Allen played Molly Bloom, what a deep, velvety voice Mr Harding has. The boys managed to turn upbeat Girls Just Wanna Have Fun into a mournful, soulful ballad. Cindy Lauper had become Leonard Cohen...another real treat, the launch of Andrew Johnson's A New Star album, his fifth! It's an album that starts in a mellow, acoustic singer/songwriter vein but then explodes off down experimental, dance, techno and tangential pathways. A pleasure to explore on CD but surely a challenge to perform live solo. With the aid of a little technology, some backing beats and rhythms Andy was able to take us through from the soul of Paul Gascoigne and into the heat of the funked out Hot Tub. Andy returned for a few crowd pleasing cover versions accompanied by Dave "Fingers" Allen on the cajon and Luke on the harmonica."

Also; did anybody see a review of The Waiting Room in one of the broad sheet national newspapers, (possibly The Times we are told) in April?

5 or 6 of our customers have mentioned that they saw it, and that it definitely wasn't The Observer/Food Awards, but we have been unable to track the review down. Please let us know if you recall it as we would like to see it.

Thank you.
