A feature length set from the fantastic Jesus Licks - A mix of grassy sounds and beautiful melodies, songs with a pop sensibility teamed with dark chord sequences and black comedic lyrics.
Adam Green - writer, comic and mild depressive - reads from his debut novel 'Satsuma Sun-mover'(Lazy Gramophone Press), a tour de force, a bouncing rampage through philosophy and the squashing of boredom; a buoyant travelogue charting the railways and junctions of the soul.
'Satsuma Sun Mover is Adam Green's first novel but you wouldn't think that from its confident picaresque stance, somewhere on the hinterland between Beckett, Flann O'Brien, and Saul Bellow.'
