Green Rock River Band Album Launch With The Lagan & Emily Lee, Battersea Park, Magic Garden
When
9pm - 2am, Sat 12th May
About
The Green Rock River Band are a big, loud, brass and string band from London, crafting original songwriting with eclectic instruments. Washboards, guitars, banjos, trombones, fiddles and three part harmonies blended together into a unique musical identity. They have won 2 awards at South by South West (SXSW) Festival in Austin, Texas and have played theatres, bars, concert halls and festivals up and down the UK bringing well crafted songs, sweaty energy, laughter and a love for music with them. Their songs have been featured on numerous TV shows and adverts and they starred in the multi-award winning feature film, The Fitzroy, as well as composing the score.
They are launching their new album nationally tonight at the legendary Magic Garden! Their new album EDGELANDS explores a very British, suburban kind of wilderness. Sometimes unsettling and bleak, at other times hopeful and inspiring, celebrating the startling beauty that can be found in the forgotten corners of wasteland. The album features some of their best work and most memorable songs.
"Quite Extraordinary... I think they're great" Mike Harding BBC 2
"A bonkers type of British Americana" 4 stars, Songlines
The band has invited some very old friends down to help them celebrate the release including,
Emily Lee, a razor-sharp firebrand of a singer-songwriter, whose penchant for soulfully delivered performances and artful songwriting has made her a stand-out performer on the London music scene
The Lagan, who combine folk instruments with contemporary punk rock, drawing influences from the traditional folk music of Ireland, and sometimes other parts of the world as well.
