Art Poppy 'Grow Claws' and assorted interesting friends at The Prince Albert

Today sees Art Pop's Grow Claws come to Brighton before it pops off to Camden next month and brings with it two varied supports acts, which we are very much condoning. Grow Claws headline at the Prince Albert, and bring

"their set of energetic Art Pop, and their own Vaudeville meets New Wave penchant for storytelling. Introducing new songs with added intensity, pop hooks and multi-layered experimental execution, expect to hear a lot about this band this year.

" Hooks and premises sound good. Not only this but attendees will each be given a free CD from the band (as long as they pass it on to someone else).
They also bring Soccer 96 and Nimmo and the Gauntletts, and again the event description does a pretty good coverage of the bands here:

"One of the most promising acts to come out of Brighton recently, their progressive Sci-Fi soundtrack meets Buddy Rich freakout features ex-members of sadly lost 'A Scandal in Bohemia'. They have recently supported BLK JKS, and those who have seen them, know what a great act they are live."

They also had these words on Nimmo:

"Superb, dynamic band from London, who have the hooks of Florence, and the voice and attitude of Micachu. Hard to pigeon-hole, and well worth seeing for their foot-stomping groove and blazing sax."

You can find the event on Facebook . It costs £4 with doors at 8pm.
