HAPPY HOUSE returns to the Fiddler's Elbow for its June edition of this monthly live/club night. Hosted by Madam Stan, HAPPY HOUSE showcases some of the finest, dirtiest rock 'n' sleaze from Camden, London and beyond.
Featuring talent from...
+ ROOSTER +
Sara Stockbridge (80s/90s muse of Vivienne Westwood) tired of her tits-out arthouse/crap tv career and formed ROOSTER to relieve the tedium - with Godwin Nwafor (Alabama 3), Mark McCarthy (The Wonder Stuff, Agent Provocateur band Dirty Stop Out) and Cobalt Stargazer (Zodiac Mindwarp & the Love Reaction). ROOSTER make songs of strangeness and social misfit that they hope will make you wanna DANCE.
+ SPECIAL BRANCH +
Although Special Branch look more like the sorts who’d come bursting out the back of a Transit van armed with pickaxe handles during a particularly violent episode of “The Sweeney,” they also have that gift of alchemy. Special Branch, like their namesake, kick the doors in and trash the place, taking no prisoners.
+ MIRACULOUS MULE +
Anglo-Irish Honkeys who dig African-American gospel, blues, prison/work songs and hillbilly music. Although they may be lapsed catholics, agnostics or non-believers whom have tripped and fallen into Hell's ditch, they sincerely believe in how this music makes them feel.
Their mission: To move you - for they are Miraculous Mule.
+ SCANT REGARD +
Will Crewdson, sometime guitarist with Rachel Stamp, Adam Ant and Johnette Napolitano amongst others presents Scant Regard. Fusing raw electronic beats and moods with the smooth, soaring sounds of Morricone's biting guitar-scapes. Mix it up with a little Link Wray style rock'n'roll swagger and you've got a good idea of what to expect from this incredibly original and daring project
+ THE FEATHERS +
Previously known as the backing band of Georgina Baillie's Poussez Posse under the management of Adam Ant, the Feathers have been busy carving a crimson career around London's alternative scene.
+ Followed by Happy House Disco w/ Madam Stan +
