Rose and Pinkie



Another corker of a show today with a solo set from Rose Kemp, daughter of Maddy Prior and Rick Kemp from Steeleye Span. She does a very appealing line in doom laden, bass heavy guitar coupled with a truly remarkable voice. If you're reading this on Saturday 29th November, get off your computer and make your way in an orderly fashion down to the Miller in London Bridge to catch her live, along with the equally but differently excellent Plug and Hands on Heads. As well as Rose, Scotland's Pumajaw were also in session, playing some very fine music indeed. Their guitarist Jon once drove my former band, Heave, on one of our several ill-fated tours, contracting pleuresy in the process, as I recall. We all have very fond memories of him and it was great to see him and Pinkie again.
